{"product_id":"dessau-8-inch-led-picture-light-wall-art-lighting-by-visual-comfort-co","title":"Visual Comfort Dessau 8\" LED Picture Light by Sean Lavin | Black, Bronze, Brass or Nickel","description":"\u003cp\u003eSean Lavin's Dessau 8 Picture Light is the compact entry point in the Bauhaus-inspired Dessau art lighting series — a wall-mounted 8-inch bar in aluminum or Natural Brass whose acrylic diffuser delivers 495 lumens of 3000K light cleanly downward across the surface of a painting, photograph, or framed object below. At 90 CRI, it renders color with the accuracy that artwork demands: warm enough to flatter oils and watercolors, precise enough not to shift the hues of photographs or prints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe design holds itself to the minimum: no decorative element, no visible hardware beyond the wall plate, just a precisely proportioned bar that integrates into any interior without competing with the artwork it serves. Available in Nightshade Black, Dark Bronze, Natural Brass, and Polished Nickel, the four finishes cover every interior direction from contemporary minimal to warm traditional. The acrylic diffuser provides smooth, even light distribution without hot spots along the bar's span, and the driver is housed at the wall plate rather than in the bar head to keep the profile clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eETL listed, dimmable at 120V (ELV\/TRIAC) and 277V (0–10V), warranted for 5 years, and suitable for paintings up to approximately 24 inches wide. For wider works, the Dessau 18 or Dessau 36 scales up within the same design system. Equally at home in residential living rooms and dining rooms, boutique hotel corridors, and commercial gallery installations.

For artwork wider than 24 inches, the Dessau 18 (covering up to ~48 inches) or Dessau 36 (covering larger works) provides better coverage and more even distribution across the full width.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What is the difference between 120V and 277V configurations?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA: 120V is the standard residential voltage; 277V is a commercial voltage used in commercial buildings and multi-family developments. Both versions are identical in form and LED performance — specify based on the electrical system at the installation site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How does the Dessau 8 compare to the Agra 12 and Bau 18 picture lights?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA: The Dessau family uses a fixed (non-pivoting) downlight design and is better suited to artwork hung at eye level where the beam angle is predetermined. The Agra and Bau families have a pivoting head that allows precise beam adjustment — better for artwork hung at varying heights or distances from the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Visual Comfort \u0026 Co.","offers":[{"title":"Nightshade Black \/ LED930: INTEGRATED LED 90 CRI 3000K 120V","offer_id":47943344357590,"sku":"MD-VCC-700DES8B-LED930","price":569.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Nightshade Black \/ LED930-277: INTEGRATED LED 90 CRI 3000K 277V","offer_id":47943344390358,"sku":"MD-VCC-700DES8B-LED930-277","price":659.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dark Bronze \/ LED930: INTEGRATED LED 90 CRI 3000K 120V","offer_id":47943344423126,"sku":"MD-VCC-700DES8Z-LED930","price":569.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dark Bronze \/ LED930-277: INTEGRATED LED 90 CRI 3000K 277V","offer_id":47943344455894,"sku":"MD-VCC-700DES8Z-LED930-277","price":659.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Natural Black \/ LED930: INTEGRATED LED 90 CRI 3000K 120V","offer_id":47943344488662,"sku":"MD-VCC-700DES8NB-LED930","price":629.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Natural Black \/ LED930-277: INTEGRATED LED 90 CRI 3000K 277V","offer_id":47943344521430,"sku":"MD-VCC-700DES8NB-LED930-277","price":719.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Polished Nickel \/ LED930: INTEGRATED LED 90 CRI 3000K 120V","offer_id":47943344554198,"sku":"MD-VCC-700DES8N-LED930","price":569.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Polished Nickel \/ LED930-277: INTEGRATED LED 90 CRI 3000K 277V","offer_id":47943344586966,"sku":"MD-VCC-700DES8N-LED930-277","price":659.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/1264\/8406\/files\/Dessau-8-INCH-Picture-Light-Visual-Comfort_Nightshade-Black.jpg?v=1773681353","url":"https:\/\/metropolitandecor.com\/products\/dessau-8-inch-led-picture-light-wall-art-lighting-by-visual-comfort-co","provider":"MetropolitanDecor.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
