On either side of a narrow mirror, between two doors, at the edge of a wardrobe, or in a row along a stairwell wall. Despite its narrowness, its 38 cm height gives it a real vertical presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGeneral installation rule, to be adjusted to suit your space: to frame a mirror, aim for the centre of the tube to be around 1.60 m above the floor. When installed in a row in a hallway, use the same spacing between the wall lights rather than centring them on each section of wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterial, finish and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlabaster is a soft, translucent stone with veining that varies from block to block: two tubes will never have exactly the same pattern. Wipe the stone dry, without water or household products, which leave permanent marks. The brass can also be dusted with a soft cloth, without polishing cream.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBulb and installation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAllow for a small screw-in bulb, not supplied. The manufacturer specifies E12 or E14: in France, E14 is what you will find in shops. Given the 7 cm diameter, choose a narrow bulb, such as a flame or tube type, rather than a globe. The connection is made via a wall cable outlet, which should be installed by your electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat bulb fits in a 7 cm tube?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA slender bulb with an E14 socket for the French market. Flame- or tube-shaped LEDs fit easily, while a large-diameter decorative globe may not fit. Measure the bulb before purchasing. It is not supplied with the wall light, and the maximum permitted wattage is not stated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes alabaster let light through?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlabaster is a translucent stone: when lit, it reveals itself and its veining, which explains its use as a diffuser. The perceived intensity depends on the thickness of the stone, which the manufacturer does not specify. Expect a soft light, closer to a nightlight than task lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan several Alabaster lights be installed side by side?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, and its slender design lends itself well to this. In a hallway or stairwell, three or four tubes spaced evenly create a rhythmic lighting effect. Maintain consistent spacing and the same centre height. Each tube will retain its own stone veining, which remains subtle at this scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs Alabaster suitable for a bathroom?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer does not publish an IP rating for this model, and we do not make one up. Therefore, installation in a wet room cannot be confirmed based on this information alone. Reserve Alabaster for dry rooms: bedrooms, living rooms, hallways, corridors, and stairwells. Our customer service team can direct you to models with the appropriate documentation for a bathroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFor more\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/applique-murale\"\u003eour wall light catalogue\u003c\/a\u003e.
