Fabula Summit Rectangular Up/Down Wall Lamp - Black Silver - IP54

Textured Charm in Two Directions

Summit has a weathered, handmade quality thanks to its black base flecked with brushed silver, giving far more character than a flat painted finish. The rectangular body throws light both upward and downward simultaneously, which works beautifully for lighting a garden path or softening a blank exterior wall at night. The brushed detail catches ambient light during the day and becomes a design feature in its own right.

Choosing Your Finish

The black with silver fleck finish creates an aged, textured look that sits well in contemporary and slightly rustic garden schemes. This weathered aesthetic mellows with time and exposure, which many people find adds to its charm. Other colour options are available within the range if you prefer a different finish aesthetic.

How It Works

Two GU10 Spotlight bulbs, each 50W maximum, provide the light in both upward and downward directions. The fitting is Class I wired, requiring an earth connection for safe installation. It's dimmable if you use dimmable bulbs and a compatible dimmer, giving you control over the ambiance from bright white light to a softer glow. The IP54 rating protects the fitting against rain and water spray from any direction, making it perfect for outdoor exposure.

Where It Works Best

Outdoors, position this at eye level on a garden wall, patio boundary, or entrance porch to get the best from both the upward and downward light distribution. The IP54 rating also makes it suitable for bathroom zones 1 and 2 indoors, where the up/down effect can work well in larger shower rooms or ensuite bathrooms. For more detail on what bathroom zones mean and where you can safely fit lights, see our guide to bathroom lighting zones.

Design Details

The rectangular form combined with the bidirectional light output makes this a statement fitting rather than a simple wall lamp. The aluminium die-casting provides structural durability for outdoor conditions, whilst the glass diffuser protects the bulbs and distributes the light evenly. The silver fleck detail on black creates visual texture that works well with contemporary architecture and natural materials.

Questions People Ask

Why would I want light going both up and down?
Uplight highlights the architectural features above the fitting, while downlight illuminates the area below. Together they create depth and visual interest on a blank wall, and they're especially useful on a long garden wall where you want to highlight different levels.

Can I dim this fitting?
Yes, if you fit it with dimmable bulbs and connect it to a compatible dimmer switch. This lets you adjust from bright practical light to a softer ambiance.

Will it survive winter weather?
Yes. The IP54 rating is designed for outdoor exposure including rain and frost. The aluminium die-casting and glass diffuser are built to withstand UK weather conditions.
