Its sandblasted white glass gives an even, diffused glow from every angle, and at just 3.5 or 5.5 in (9 or 14 cm) across it can be repeated in rows or tucked into tight spots. It fixes to either a wall or a ceiling and is dimmable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQuick facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sillaba wall\/ceiling light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e FontanaArte, Milan, Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem number (MPN):\u003c\/strong\u003e F277560150BINU (Small), F277570150BINU (Large)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardwired compact wall and ceiling light, dual mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest for:\u003c\/strong\u003e hallways, closets, stairs, mirrors and vanities, small bedrooms, hotel corridors and bathrooms (dry zones), theatres and auditoriums\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.5 in (9 cm) diameter, 2.3 in (6 cm) deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.5 in (14 cm) diameter, 3.5 in (9 cm) deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight source:\u003c\/strong\u003e Small: 1 x G4 bulb, 20W maximum, 110V (bulb and transformer not included).

The result is a calm, glare-free glow that is pleasant to look at directly, which is why it suits mirrors and eye-level positions. The Large gives about 650 lumens of warm 3000 K light, enough to light a closet, a small hallway or a vanity when used in pairs or threes; the Small, with a low-voltage G4 lamp up to 20W, is a gentle marker light for stairs, corridors, alcoves and theatre balconies. Both dim smoothly for evening use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSize and placement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSillaba is tiny: the Small is 3.5 in (9 cm) across and 2.3 in (6 cm) deep; the Large is 5.5 in (14 cm) across and 3.5 in (9 cm) deep. On a wall it projects only 2.3 or 3.5 in, so it is ideal for narrow corridors.
