Black/gold lighting fixtures

Count on one black gold lamp per area to light: a chandelier or pendant above the living room, a wall light in the hallway and the bathroom. The black draws the silhouette, the gold warms the light, and the whole selection runs on LED.

Which black gold lamps should you choose for each room of the house?

These black gold lamps suit the living room and bedroom first, then the bathroom and hallway. The black draws the silhouette, the gold warms the light. For a small room such as a toilet, a compact IP20 wall light is enough; in a bathroom, go for an IP44 or IP45 model.

A black gold lamp for the living room

In a living room, light works in two layers: a high source that lights the whole space, a low or wall source that warms the corners. A glass globe chandelier placed in the centre gives a diffuse light, with no harsh point, and the gold of the metal throws a warm tone onto pale walls. In practice, these pieces fix to the ceiling or the wall, without cluttering the floor. To go further, browse the modern living room lamps and the design pieces for the living room.

Lamps for toilets and hallway: which model to choose?

In a hallway or a toilet, a wall light frees the passage and lights without casting shadow. Ball and tube shapes, in metal and glass, work well: they take up little depth and sit at eye level. A G4 socket or an integrated LED module saves having to change a bulb in a tight spot. Our toilet lighting selection gathers these short formats.

Pendant, chandelier, wall light or ceiling light: which shape of black gold lamp should you choose?

A pendant lights one area, a chandelier lights the whole room, a wall light frees the floor and a ceiling light covers a wide space. In this selection, chandeliers and pendants combine metal, glass, brass or acrylic, with LED, G4 or E14 sockets, sometimes with a dimmer. The choice comes down to the room to light and the height available.

Gold chandelier: when should you prefer it to a pendant?

A chandelier takes over when the room is large and several light points are needed: it spreads the light, whereas a pendant concentrates it on one plane. The Seni globe chandelier, in glass and black and gold metal, lights a living room or dining room without creating a dark zone. A pendant stays more accurate above an island or a reading corner. The Seni globe chandelier is a good example.

Black industrial chandelier: how do you fit it into a contemporary living room?

The industrial style plays on contrast: exposed iron, simple shapes, glass or acrylic, little ornament. In a contemporary living room, keep it as a single piece and light the rest with discreet wall lights. The gold then echoes the other metal details in the room, handles or furniture legs. The black pendants and all pendants cover this register.

Chic and original lamps: how do black and gold transform the decor?

A chic lamp comes down to three things: a clean silhouette, a matte black metal that draws it and a gold touch that warms the light. Ball, tube and LED ring shapes give the original side, while square or oval models stay more sober. The gold works just as well on glass as on aluminium.

Original decorative lamps: ball, tube or LED rings?

The ball shape spreads a soft, even light, in glass as in metal. The tube shape lengthens the line and lights along a wall, useful in a hallway. LED rings, for their part, work as a pattern and adjust in height to suit the volume. For a deliberate focal point, look at the Ena adjustable LED ring chandelier and the lamps with singular shapes.

What makes a lamp chic rather than heavy?

Restraint. A model stays chic when the gold is kept for the details and the black carries the structure, when the material is honest (glass, brass, iron) and when the silhouette reads at a glance. Multiplying thin branches or different finishes weighs it down. The high-end pieces and the smoked glass illustrate this sobriety.

Which light for a black gold lamp: warm white, neutral white or cool white?

The whole selection is LED. Most models offer warm white between 2700 and 3500 K, the majority also cool white between 4500 and 6500 K, a few a neutral white. On a gold lamp, warm white underlines the metal; cool white suits work rooms better.

Warm white or cool white for a gold lamp?

Around 3000 K, the light turns amber and the gold looks deeper; that is the register of a living room or a bedroom in the evening. Between 4500 and 6500 K, the light cools and the metallic contrasts stand out more, which helps in a kitchen or on a worktop. Neutral white, around 4000 K, holds the middle and stays comfortable at the table. See also the LED lighting for the living room.

Which models accept a dimmer?

About a third of the models in the selection are compatible with a dimmer, including the Zenith ceiling light, some wall lights and several chandeliers. A dimmer lets you lower the intensity in the evening without switching off, which changes the mood of a room without changing the lamp. You need a dimmer suited to the LED module, otherwise flickering appears at low intensity. The Zenith ceiling light is one of them.

Socket, material and protection rating: what to check before buying

Check three points. The socket: integrated LED, G4, E14, G9 or E27 depending on the model, which changes the bulb to plan for. The protection rating: IP20 in dry rooms, IP44 or IP45 in a bathroom. The material: metal, iron, glass, aluminium, acrylic or brass. All models come with a two-year guarantee.

Which socket to choose between LED, G4, E14, G9 and E27?

An integrated LED socket cannot be replaced: nothing to plan for, but a lifespan tied to the module. G4 fits small wall lights and compact globes, G9 glass globes, E14 lamps with several bulbs and E27 pieces that need more light. Each product page states the socket, to compare before ordering the bulb. Find all our lamps by family.

IP20, IP44 or IP45: which rating for which room?

The protection rating describes resistance to dust and water splashes. IP20 covers dry rooms: living room, bedroom, hallway, dining room. In a bathroom, an IP44 or IP45 wall light handles splashes near the sink. Beyond the water point area, IP20 remains acceptable. The bathroom wall lights meet this need.

Kitchen and dining room lamps: which pendant above the table?

Above a dining table, a chandelier with several light points lights the whole room, a directed pendant lights mainly the tabletop. In a kitchen, short models that are easy to clean are more practical. In the collection, these pieces mix metal, iron, glass and acrylic, with G4, LED or E14 sockets.

Kitchen lamps: which model above the worktop?

Over a worktop, the light must come down without dazzling: a closed model, in glass or acrylic, avoids reflections in the eyes. Care matters as much as style: glass and metal wipe clean in one go, openwork shapes hold grease. The number of light points determines the length of worktop covered. See the contemporary kitchen and the design kitchen lamps.

Chandelier or pendant for a dining room?

A chandelier suits a large table, where you need to light the guests as much as the centre. A pendant, more directed, creates a circle of light on the tabletop and leaves the rest of the room in half-light, which works well for a dinner. Above a table, hang it at a distance from the surface, so you can see faces without being dazzled. Our modern dining room details the formats.

Lamps in Lyon, shop or lamp clearance: how do you kit out without getting it wrong?

Lamp clearance: how do you spot the right model?

A lower price says nothing about compatibility. Three questions are enough: is the room damp (IP44 or IP45) or dry (IP20)? Does the socket match a bulb you will know how to replace? Does the size fit the space available, ceiling height included? Entry-level models and exceptional pieces sit side by side in the selection. Complete with the floor lamps or the copper metal.

How do you install and care for a black gold lamp?

Care comes down to a soft, dry cloth: abrasive products dull the gold and the brass. For installation, check the socket and the number of light points before fixing, respect the protection rating of the room and, if the model is dimmable, use a compatible dimmer to avoid flickering.

Do you need a compatible dimmer to adjust the intensity?

Only models listed as dimmable accept intensity adjustment, roughly a third of the selection. With an LED module, the dimmer must be designed for that load, otherwise the light flickers at the bottom of the range or buzzes. Before fixing the lamp, also check the number of light points and the socket, then cut the circuit. The Gravity wall light, available in several lengths, is fitted along a living room wall.

How do you clean a gold or brass lamp?

A dry microfibre cloth is enough for dust, slightly damp if needed, then dry immediately to avoid marks. Avoid alcohol, ammonia and abrasive powders, which attack the gold and the brass. For a bathroom lamp, dust more often: humidity sets the residue. The black and wood pieces simply need gentle dusting.
