Small seaside-style bulkhead lamp

This tough, durable brass lamp is a classic of industrial design, and can be used as a wall or ceiling light.
It is made in an artisanal workshop in Europe, which has specialised in the production of lamps for boats since its creation half a century ago.
It is ideal for outdoor lighting.
The lamp has an IP55 rating, so it's well protected against dust and water.
This lamp has a G9 socket and must be fitted with a G9 bulb.

What are the properties of brass?

Brass is an alloy consisting predominantly of zinc and copper. Brass is significantly more yellow than pure copper and bronze. It is a material that has always been appreciated for its resistance and its colour close to that of gold.
Brass resists moisture and does not rust, and is easy to maintain. Over time, the glossy surface will tend to oxidize naturally and become verdigris (greyish-green). This is a natural process of brass ageing and does not constitute grounds for complaint or is something covered by the warranty.


What does the IP value mean on a light fitting?

All light fittings are classified according to their IP value. These IP values (International Protection or Ingress Protection) indicate the degree of protection of the light fitting against dust and moisture. The IP value consists of two digits: the first digit indicates the level of protection against dust; the second, the level of protection against moisture. The higher the IP value, the higher the protection. Check this diagram to see the different existing IP values.


What does IP55 mean?

IP55 means that this lamp is protected against:
5 : dust.
5 : jets of water from all directions.
Indoor: rated for installation in bathroom zones 2 and 3.
Outdoor: Suitable for outdoor use if correctly installed in zone 3 and 4 (see zone diagrams in the gallery).
See our damp-rated lights for bathroom section for more information.

What is a G9 light bulb?

A G9 light bulb looks like a small capsule and has two pins spaced 9 mm apart (hence the 9 in its name). This base is also called mini Bi-Pin. G9 light bulbs are very small and can therefore be used in small light fixtures. G9 bulbs simply operate on 230V; you can therefore connect them directly to the electrical network. A light bulb with a G9 base must be placed on a light fixture with a G9 fitting. This type of light bulb is simply inserted by pushing the two pins into the socket and is therefore very easy to install.
Here you will find examples of halogen G9 42 W, halogen G9 28 W and LED G9 light bulbs.

Is the light bulb included?

The light bulb is not included when you buy this light. You will find here the whole selection of LED, incandescent, stick and halogen light bulbs. Take into account that each light needs a specific type of light bulb. You will find the kind of light bulb that it requires under the "Technical Description" tab.
