Pholc Mobil 12 Opal Globe Wall Light, Black or Brass

A compact opal globe on a round wall plate, in black or polished brass, that plugs in or installs fixed: the simplest piece of Mobil.

Mobil 12 is the most compact member of Monika Mulder’s Mobil collection: a round wall plate holding an opal glass globe, 7.9" wide and projecting 3.9". The opal glass gives soft, even light from a single G9 bulb. It comes with a 6.5 ft textile cord, so it can simply plug in, or it can be installed as a fixed fixture.

Why we carry it

We have been curating design-led lighting since 2009, and Mobil 12 is an easy, elegant upgrade for any wall that needs light. Pholc is a Swedish lighting brand founded in 2015 by Maja and Samuel Norburg, who set out to define what Swedish design can be. It works with designers such as Broberg & Ridderstråle, Nina Jobs and Stina Sandwall, Monika Mulder and Sabina Grubbeson, and every Pholc lamp is meant to have its own personality.

Buy once: durability and care

Wipe the metal with a soft, dry cloth and dust the opal glass gently; never use detergents with abrasives or solvents (Pholc’s care advice).
