A plug-in picture light that adds a warm, focused glow to artwork, portraits, and wall decor without any wiring.
The Traditional 8-inch picture light from House of Troy brings gallery-style illumination to your home with a classic metal shade in black. The telescoping arm extends from 7 to 9 inches, letting you position light exactly where it flatters the piece below. An in-line hi-lo switch on the cord makes it easy to adjust brightness, and the 2-prong plug means you can install it almost anywhere there's an outlet. This model is CA compliant for energy efficiency.
Best for
- Living rooms and hallways where you want to highlight a favorite painting or photograph
- Home galleries and stairwells with a series of framed pieces
- Bedrooms as a reading light above a headboard or accent chair
- Offices and studies to illuminate diplomas or inspirational art
Not ideal for
- Very large canvases wider than 8 inches - the 8-inch shade may not cover the full width
- Areas without a nearby outlet, since this is a plug-in fixture with a 2-prong cord
- Spaces where you need a hardwired, switch-controlled light
How bright is it?
Uses one 25W or 40W B10 incandescent bulb (not included). Lumen output not specified by manufacturer, but a 40W bulb typically provides around 400 lumens - enough for accent lighting, not room-filling brightness.
Light color and feel
With an incandescent bulb, you get a warm, golden-white light (around 2700K) that enhances the colors in paintings and photographs. The black finish offers a sleek, modern look that works well with contemporary and traditional decor.
Sizing and fit
The shade is 8 inches wide, and the arm telescopes from 7 to 9 inches from the wall. Overall dimensions are 8 inches wide by 2.25 inches high (depth varies with extension). This size works well for medium-sized artwork in most rooms.
