Fabula Fratton 2 Light Crystal Wall Up & Down IP44 - Antique Brass & Clear Crystal

Soft Light Up and Down

This Fratton wall light comes in warm antique brass with clear crystal rods, throwing light both upward and downward to give a soft, even spread rather than a single bright spot. The brass tone brings a slightly traditional quality, while the crystal detailing keeps the overall look refined and never fussy.

Choosing Your Finish

The antique brass has a gentle patina that suits warmer colour schemes and works well alongside gold or warm white metalwork elsewhere in the room. The same fitting is available in other finishes across the Fratton range, so you can pick whichever complements your existing decor.

How It Works

Two E14 lamp holders sit hidden behind the crystal rods, distributing light upward and downward along the wall in a soft arc. It's Class I rated, meaning it needs an earth connection as part of the installation. The IP44 protection means it's safe from water spray in any direction, allowing it to be mounted safely near a mirror or basin without sitting directly in the line of splashing.

Where It Works Best

This fitting's IP44 rating makes it suitable for bathroom zones 1 and 2, which makes it a natural choice either side of a bathroom mirror or along a landing wall where you want even, balanced lighting. Our guide to bathroom lighting zones covers what each zone means in detail. Beyond the bathroom, it suits hallways, bedrooms, and living areas where directional light spread is an advantage.

Design Details

The combination of solid metal arms with clear crystal detailing creates visual interest without bulk, and the upward and downward light path means the fitting itself becomes part of the architectural lighting scheme rather than just a functional item. Iron and crystal work together to deliver a look that reads as thoughtfully designed rather than purely decorative.

Questions People Ask

Why does the light point both up and down?
It creates a more balanced, softer lighting effect than a fitting that points in one direction. Above a bathroom mirror, for instance, it lights both your face and the wall above without harsh shadows.

Will this work in a modern bathroom?
Yes. Although the brass has a warmer tone, the crystal keeps it feeling contemporary and the IP44 rating makes it practical for any bathroom style.

Is there a chrome or black version?
Yes, this same design (the Fratton up and down) is available in polished chrome, satin black, and gold finishes across the range.
