Elstead Austen Bathroom Wall Light

The Elstead Austen Bathroom Wall Light is a classically detailed wall fitting from the Austen range. Finished in polished chrome over a solid brass body, it is designed for use in bathrooms and other humid spaces where reliable performance matters.

Its design combines a flared, tulip-style clear glass shade with a tiered, concentric circular wall plate and a short horizontal arm. A small spherical joint detail and a stepped metal collar give the fitting a traditional silhouette updated with a high-shine chrome finish. The range is also available in Polished Nickel and Polished Brass.

Constructed from solid brass with a polished chrome plating, the fitting is built for durability in humid environments and resists corrosion better than many alternative bases. The clear glass shade is secured to the socket assembly with a decorative metal collar, leaving the lamp visible for a crisp, architectural look.

The Austen wall light houses a single G9 LED lamp and delivers upward-facing task or accent illumination, suitable for adding clarity to vanity walls or creating layered ambience in a bathroom. The clear shade provides unfiltered light that highlights surrounding surfaces and details rather than soft diffusion.

This fitting is IP44 rated and supplied with LED G9 lamps, making it suitable for bathroom locations where splashing may occur. Dimming depends on the chosen G9 LED lamp and dimmer; check compatibility if dimming is required. General 2 year warranty applies.
