Nuura Liila 1 Light Medium IP44 Wall/Flush Light - Black & Optic Clear Glass

Liila 1 Medium takes the single sphere idea at the heart of Nuura's Liila collection and gives it a slightly more substantial presence than the Small version, while still reading as a light, floating form on the wall or ceiling. A slim circular backplate holds the hand blown glass sphere just proud of the surface, so it looks almost suspended rather than fixed.

Black finish and optic clear glass

Here a black metal backplate is paired with optic clear glass rather than opal. The clear glass carries a subtle embossed texture that catches the light and lets more of the source show through, giving a brighter, slightly sparkling glow, while the black finish keeps the whole fitting quiet and easy to place against most colour schemes.

How it works

It takes a single G9 lamp, rated up to 7W, and can be installed as either a wall light or a flush ceiling fitting depending on where it's needed. It's hardwired, so it must be connected by a qualified electrician rather than plugged in. The glass sphere itself measures around 14cm across, with the whole fitting roughly 16.5cm wide and 17cm deep from the wall or ceiling.

Where it works best

With an IP44 rating, Liila 1 Medium is suitable for installation in a bathroom, provided it's positioned in a zone that permits IP44 fittings, and it works just as well in hallways, small landings and low ceilinged rooms where a pendant would feel too heavy. For guidance on which parts of a bathroom that covers, see our guide, Bathroom Lighting Zones and IP Ratings Explained: The Simple UK Guide.

Questions People Ask

Does the Nuura Liila 1 Medium need an electrician to install? It is a hardwired Class I fitting, so it is connected to the mains rather than plugged in. We always recommend a qualified electrician installs this fitting.

Can I use it in a bathroom? It is rated IP44, which protects against water splashes from any direction, so it suits bathrooms in zones that permit IP44 fittings. Check the bathroom lighting zones guide before choosing its exact position.

Can it go on the wall and the ceiling? Yes. Liila 1 Medium can be installed as either a wall light or a flush ceiling fitting.

What bulb does it take, and can it be dimmed? It takes one G9 LED lamp of up to 7W, which is not supplied and can be replaced. It can be dimmed when fitted with a dimmable LED lamp suitable for your dimmer circuit.

Will the glass look exactly like the pictures? The glass is mouth blown with an embossed texture, so each sphere varies very slightly, and the pattern catches light differently lit and unlit. Screens also show colour differently. If you are unsure about exact size or colour, please call our customer service team.

Can I return it if I change my mind? No. Nuura fittings are made to order, so they are non-returnable once ordered, unless an item arrives faulty.
