The Arko wall lamp without lampshade traces a long, understated black curve on the wall. It is an arc made of matte black metal with a bare E27 socket: it is up to you to add the lampshade of your choice—voile, linen, rattan, or a glass globe—for a fully personalized wall lamp. The reach is adjustable from 115 to 160 cm, perfect for bringing light directly above the sofa, bed, or reading chair, without a floor base or side table. With a visible filament bulb, this bare arc takes on the look of a vintage wall lamp.

Installing the wall lamp
This wall-mounted arc without a lampshade is installed on the wall: fix the two mounting plates and their included screws along the vertical post (see the assembly diagram and wall plugs included), then clip on the arc. Adjust the reach between 115 and 160 cm to center the light above your sofa or bed, screw an E27 LED bulb into the socket, attach your lampshade, plug in the 200 cm cord, and control the lamp via the switch. For immersive ambient lighting, choose a warm white LED (2700-3000 K); an exposed filament will provide a definitive retro feel. Then, hang the lampshade of your choice to finish your personalized wall lamp.
Care
The black metal structure should be wiped with a slightly damp microfiber cloth while the lamp is turned off and cooled. Avoid abrasive products that could mark the matte finish. Regularly dust the socket and the lampshade you have added to maintain the full brilliance of the light.
Does this wall lamp come with a lampshade?
No, the wall lamp is delivered without a lampshade: it is a bare arc with an E27 socket that you can dress up as you please. This freedom allows you to match the lamp to your interior—a linen lampshade for a cozy atmosphere, rattan for a natural touch, or a glass globe for a more graphic style.
Does this wall arc replace a floor lamp?
Yes. With its adjustable reach of 115 to 160 cm, the wall arc brings light over a sofa or bed just like an arched floor lamp, but fixed to the wall, with no base on the floor or trailing cables. Ideal for small living rooms and bedrooms where every centimeter counts.
What dimensions and bulb should I expect?
The arc measures 145 cm in height and extends from 115 to 160 cm in reach. It accommodates an E27 bulb of 40 W maximum, ideally an LED to limit heat. Ensure this clearance between the wall and the area above your seat so that the lampshade of your choice is positioned over the area to be illuminated.
Can it be left with an exposed bulb, without a lampshade?
Absolutely. Many keep it bare by choice: a pretty decorative bulb is enough to make it an exposed-bulb wall lamp, decorative and minimalist. Choose an amber Edison-style filament bulb for a warm result, or a frosted model for more diffuse light.
