A 5-inch plug-in picture light in black metal, made to wash artwork and framed pieces in warm accent light without any wiring.
Part of House of Troy's Classic Traditional collection, this slim metal picture light mounts above a frame and telescopes from 7 to 9 inches so you can push the light out over deeper canvases or shadow boxes. The black finish keeps it quiet against dark frames and gallery walls, and the in-line hi-lo switch on the cord lets you dial brightness without a wall switch.
Best for
- Living rooms and hallways with framed art that has no nearby outlet for a hardwired sconce
- Home galleries and stairwells where a plug-in cord can be routed discreetly
- Bedrooms used as reading light over a headboard-mounted print
- Rentals and apartments where adding a wall circuit isn't an option
Not ideal for
- Very large canvases - the 5-inch shade covers a narrow band of light
- Outdoor or damp spaces - no wet or damp rating is stated for this fixture
- Anyone wanting a wall-switch-controlled light; this is operated by the in-line cord switch
How bright is it?
Lumen output is not specified by the manufacturer. It takes one 15T4 candelabra-base incandescent bulb (not included), which is a low-output accent lamp intended to highlight art, not to light a room.
Light color and feel
Color temperature depends on the bulb you install; the fixture itself does not set a Kelvin rating. A warm-white incandescent tube will give the soft, gallery-style glow most people want over artwork. Dimmability is handled by the built-in hi-lo in-line switch rather than a wall dimmer.
Sizing and fit
The shade is 5 inches wide and the arm telescopes from 7 to 9 inches from the wall, so it suits frames up to roughly 24 inches wide. Overall dimensions are 5 in W x 1.75 in H with a 7-9 in adjustable extension. The 2-prong cord plugs into a standard outlet.
