Navigator Francis Wall Light - Raw Brass

A Fixture Built to Age Like Ship's Brass

Raw Brass is the finish for anyone who likes watching a material earn its character. Straight out of the box it has a bright, golden warmth, and over time in the open air it will begin to darken and mark, taking on the kind of patina you see on old brass fittings around harbours and boatyards. The Navigator Francis in this finish is compact, solid and unmistakably nautical in feel.

How It Works

• A solid brass shell wraps around a frosted glass front, which spreads the light from the lamp rather than leaving a hard glare.
• IP64 rated, built to keep out wind driven rain and coastal spray.
• Wall mounted as a bulkhead style fixture, with wiring entering through a rear cable gland so nothing is left on show.
• A plastic liner is supplied for recessed or flush wall fitting, and lifts out easily if you would rather surface mount it.
• Takes one GX53 lamp (not supplied), with dimmable GX53 lamps supported if you want to control the level.
• Opening the glass front calls for a tool, which keeps it secure in spots where the public can reach the fixture.

Where It Works Best

Choose this finish for coastal cottages, seafront terraces, or any exterior where you want the brass to weather in alongside the building rather than stay static. It is equally at home on a modern render facade as it is against old stone, since the colour will develop its own character rather than clashing with what is already there.

Where Antique Brass gives you a pre aged look from day one and Satin Nickel offers a cooler, more contemporary alternative, Raw Brass is the option for people happy to let the elements do the work. It belongs to the same Navigator family as models like Cargo and Merchant, so it pairs easily with other pieces from the range if you are lighting more than one opening.

Questions People Ask

Q: Will Raw Brass tarnish or darken once it is outdoors?
A: Yes, and that is the point of choosing it. Raw Brass is left unlacquered, so weather and handling will gradually darken and mark the surface, giving it a genuine, developing patina rather than staying bright gold.

Q: Can the Raw Brass Francis wall light be mounted flush against the wall?
A: Yes. It comes with a plastic rear cover designed for flush or recessed fitting, and you can remove it if a simple surface mount suits your wall better.

Q: How many bulbs does this wall light take?
A: Just one. It runs a single GX53 lamp, which is not supplied, so add a suitable lamp when ordering, choosing a dimmable version if you want to control the brightness.
