Marset Tam Tam Wall Light

The Marset Tam Tam Wall Light is a decorative wall-mounted fitting designed by Fabien Dumas for the Tam Tam range. Its pared-back geometry — a flat circular backplate paired with a truncated-cone shade — gives a contemporary, expressive profile that works as both accent and directional lighting.

The shade connects to the circular metal plate with a mechanism that allows it to tilt and rotate, so the beam can be directed as required. The design deliberately contrasts a two-dimensional disk with a three-dimensional cone to produce a dynamic, jaunty silhouette.

Construction is metal throughout: a lacquered metal backplate with a lacquered aluminium shade and an opalescent methacrylate diffuser over the shade's open end. The finish is offered in a soft semi-matte lacquer; note that the shade is sold separately to allow specification flexibility.

When illuminated the fitting casts light upwards and outwards, producing a soft glow on the wall as well as a controlled directional beam. The adjustable shade helps balance ambient wash with focused accenting without introducing unnecessary glare.

The fitting is designed for flush installation on a vertical wall and includes a small toggle switch at the lower edge of the backplate for manual on/off operation.
