Searchlight Beacon 2 Light Up/Down Wall Light - Latte Metal

A Sculptural Beacon for Modern Walls

The Beacon 2 Light Up/Down Wall Light does a lot with a very simple shape. A single slim cylinder sits flush against the wall and throws light both upward and downward at once, so it reads as a clean architectural line by day and a soft double glow once the bulbs go on. It's a fixture built for walls that need a bit of presence without any fuss.

The Latte Metal Finish

This version comes in a warm latte metal finish over an aluminium body. It's a soft, brownish neutral that sits comfortably against white walls, warm timber, or richer paint colours, and it won't compete for attention the way a high shine chrome or brass finish can. The cylinder has a brushed, matte surface, so it catches light gently rather than reflecting it back at you.

How It Works

• Takes two GU10 LED bulbs, around 10W each, sold separately so you can choose your own brightness and colour temperature
• Light spills from the open top and bottom of the cylinder, washing the wall above and below the fixture
• Dimmable when used with dimmable GU10 LED bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch
• Wired fitting, Class I rated, so it needs an earthed connection and should be installed by a qualified electrician
• Measures 25cm high and 4cm wide, and projects around 6.4cm from the wall

Where It Works Best

Its dual direction glow makes it a natural fit either side of a bed, along a hallway, or flanking a mirror or piece of art in a living or dining room. Because the latte metal finish is understated, it also works well in pairs, spaced evenly along a corridor or staircase wall for a run of soft, repeating light.

Good to Know

• Backed by a 1 year warranty
• Wipe the aluminium body with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, which can mark the finish
• Covered by our standard returns policy if it's not right for your space
