DCW éditions Mantis Wall Light

The DCW éditions Mantis Wall Light, designed by Bernard Schottlander for DCW éditions, is a sculptural wall-mounted light. Its mid-century modern lines and fluid, asymmetrical shade make it a confident choice for bedroom bedside lighting where both task and decorative light are required.

The design pairs a very thin horizontal arm with a voluminous, organic hooded shade that flares asymmetrically to create a distinctive profile. It is offered in Black Satin and carries the sculptural presence associated with the Mantis range.

The circular wall plate, slim arm and shade are presented in a matte black finish, while a silver-toned metallic swivel joint provides the adjustable connection. The shade interior is coated white to improve light reflection, and the wall canopy includes visible fixing screws for installation.

This wall light delivers directional task illumination: the projecting arm positions the source away from the wall and the deep hood directs light while shielding the bulb to reduce glare. The integrated swivel joint allows the shade to be tilted and rotated to aim the beam for reading or accent lighting.

The fitting is IP20 rated for interior zones and is supplied with a two-year manufacturer warranty. The Mantis wall light is available in two variants and is designed for conventional indoor mounting above bedsides and similar task areas.

At Lighting Design Online we recommend this light when you need a controlled reading beam and a refined, sculptural presence. Our guidance focuses on the right outcome for the room, backed by professional assurance and project-friendly detail to help integrate the Mantis into considered bedroom and residential schemes.
