Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Poiret Series Brass & Glass Globe Hanging Wall Lamp suitable as a bedside reading light?
Yes. The Poiret Series delivers a soft, focused glow ideal for bedside reading because it uses a frosted glass globe that diffuses light evenly, a single E14 LED bulb that covers about 3 to 5 square meters, and an adjustable suspension (20 inch cord and 32 inch total body height) that lets you position the fixture for task light. The iron construction and plated brass or black finish provide a stable mount and refined appearance next to a bed. This lamp benefits homeowners and designers who want an elegant, low-glare bedside fixture that doubles as ambient and task lighting. Note that the fixture is not dimmable, so if you need adjustable brightness choose an appropriate low-lumen LED bulb or add a compatible switched circuit upstream.
Can I install the Poiret wall lamp on drywall or concrete walls?
Yes, you can install the Poiret wall lamp on drywall or concrete, provided you use appropriate mounting hardware and follow the hardwired installation requirements. The fixture mounts via a 4.75 inch backplate to a fixed surface, and the iron construction supports secure anchoring; for drywall you should anchor into a stud or use rated toggle anchors, and for concrete use masonry anchors. Because the lamp is hardwired to 90–260V AC, professional installation by a licensed electrician is recommended to ensure safe wiring and stable mounting. This suits homeowners and contractors fitting the lamp in bedrooms, hallways, or living rooms. If you prefer not to hardwire, consider a professional retrofit or Letifly customization options.
Is the Poiret Series safe to use in bathrooms or outdoors?
No, the Poiret Series is not suitable for bathrooms or outdoor wet locations. The product is specified as not waterproof and does not carry an IP rating for moisture resistance, so exposure to steam, splashes, or rain could compromise the fixture and void safety expectations. It does carry CCC certification for electrical safety in indoor settings, which makes it appropriate for dry interior spaces such as bedrooms, hallways, and living rooms. This detail is important for homeowners and designers planning illumination in moist environments; for bathrooms or exterior uses choose fixtures rated for damp or wet locations.
Can I customize the cord length or finish of the Poiret Series lamp?
Yes. The Poiret Series includes an adjustable rope cord (standard length 20 inches) and Letifly Lights & Decor offers further customization: we can lengthen or shorten pendant cords and provide alternative canopy sizes and finishes on request. The fixture is available in plated brass or black with a frosted glass shade, and tailored adjustments are handled through support@letifly.com. This customization is ideal for interior designers, homeowners with high ceilings, or installations requiring nonstandard canopy dimensions. Keep in mind that custom changes may affect lead time and installation details, so confirm options and delivery timelines with support before purchase.
What type of bulb does the Poiret Series use and how bright will it be?
The Poiret Series uses a single E14 base LED bulb and is designed to illuminate approximately 3 to 5 square meters, producing a soft, ambient output through its frosted glass shade. The fixture accepts LED bulbs in the wide voltage range of 90–260V AC, which provides stable operation in most regions. Because the lamp is not dimmable, select an LED bulb with the lumen level that matches your desired brightness; a lower lumen E14 LED delivers gentle ambient light while a higher lumen E14 gives clearer task illumination. This suits buyers seeking energy-efficient, compact fixtures for small to medium rooms. If you require dimming, you will need a dimmable fixture or a compatible dimmable circuit and bulbs.
Is the Poiret Series durable and easy to maintain?
Yes. The Poiret Series is built from iron with a plated brass or black finish and a frosted glass shade, materials chosen for long-term stability and a refined appearance. The metal backplate and iron body provide structural durability, while the plated finish resists everyday tarnish when cared for properly. Maintenance is straightforward: dust the shade and metal with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the plating. The lamp’s CCC certification further confirms electrical compliance for indoor use. This makes the fixture well suited to residential and light commercial settings where low-maintenance, elegant lighting is desired. Over many years the plated finish can show wear if exposed to harsh cleaners.
Will the Poiret wall lamp work with smart home systems or dimmer switches?
Not directly for dimming. The Poiret Series is specified as non-dimmable, so standard dimmer switches will not reliably control brightness unless you replace the bulb with a compatible dimmable E14 LED and confirm the circuit supports dimming. The fixture accepts 90–260V AC E14 bulbs, which means it can be used with smart bulbs that fit the E14 base if those bulbs are rated non-dimmable or dimmable as required by your setup. For integration with smart home systems, choose a smart E14 LED bulb or a smart switch that is compatible with non-dimmable fixtures; always verify compatibility to avoid flicker or damage. This guidance is aimed at tech-savvy homeowners and installers planning smart control.
How does the Poiret wall lamp compare to pendant lights for modern Scandinavian interiors?
The Poiret wall lamp complements modern Scandinavian interiors differently than pendants because it functions as a wall-mounted accent and task light rather than overhead ambient lighting. Its frosted glass globe, plated brass or black finish, and compact shade diameter of 5.9 inches create a subtle, sculptural detail that layers well with minimalist Scandinavian decor. The fixture’s lighting area of 3 to 5 square meters makes it ideal for bedside lighting, reading nooks, or corridor accents, whereas pendants typically illuminate a broader area from above. This lamp benefits interior designers and homeowners seeking refined accent lighting and visual texture. For overall room illumination, use it in combination with ceiling fixtures or multiple wall units.
Do I need a professional to install the Poiret Series, or can I do it myself?
Professional installation is recommended. The Poiret Series is a hardwired fixture operating at 90–260V AC and mounts to a 4.75 inch backplate, which requires safe electrical connection and secure anchoring. While experienced DIYers comfortable with household wiring can install it, a licensed electrician ensures compliance with local codes, correct grounding, and stable mounting. The iron construction and plated finish mean the fixture is straightforward to assemble, but electrical work carries risk and may require permits. This recommendation benefits homeowners who want a safe, code-compliant installation and designers coordinating installations across multiple rooms. If you plan to DIY, follow the included instructions and turn off power at the breaker.
Which rooms and layouts are best suited for the Poiret Series Brass & Glass Globe Hanging Wall Lamp?
The Poiret Series is best suited for bedrooms, reading nooks, hallways, entryways, and living room accent walls where refined, focused lighting is desired. Its compact lampshade (5.9 inch diameter), modest lighting coverage of 3 to 5 square meters, and elegant plated brass or black finish pair well with modern, Scandinavian, and minimalist interiors. The adjustable cord and 32 inch total body height make it easy to position the globe at eye level for comfortable task and ambient light. This lamp benefits homeowners and interior designers who need stylish accent lighting rather than primary illumination for large open-plan spaces. For wide-area lighting, use multiple fixtures or combine with ceiling lights.
