Product Information

Full details

The DCW Editions Lampe Gras No204 L40 Double Wall Light is an industrial-inspired task light designed for those who value functional, high-articulation lighting for reading or drafting. Originally crafted for engineers in 1921, this double-arm wall light offers exceptional flexibility by allowing two separate light sources to move independently, making it an ideal companion for dual-use spaces like shared beds or sofas. While it brings authentic mid-century professional character to any home, users should note that its industrial mechanical design requires careful positioning to maximize its long reach.

FAQs

Can I move the two arms simultaneously?

The two arms operate independently, meaning they can be moved and positioned without affecting the orientation of the other.

Is this lamp suitable for reading in bed?

Yes, it is highly effective for bedside use because the two arms allow two people to aim the light at their respective books without disturbing each other.

What type of bulb should I use?

Please refer to the technical specifications provided with your unit, as it typically requires a standard base bulb compatible with the lamp's wattage rating.

Is the lamp made of plastic or metal?

The structure is made of high-quality steel, consistent with the original 1921 industrial design.

Does it come with a switch?

This varies by specific MPN; please check the product label or your receipt to confirm if your specific variant includes an integrated switch.

Can I install this on drywall alone?

Due to the mechanics and weight of the double arm, it is recommended to mount the base to a wall stud or use appropriate heavy-duty anchors.

Troubleshooting

The arm drifts or fails to stay in position

Check the screws at the three articulation points and tighten them slightly to increase friction.

Light flickering

Ensure the light bulb is properly seated in the socket and verify that the electrical connections at the wall base are secure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High level of mechanical adjustability for focused task lighting
  • Independent movement of both light arms
  • Iconic, timeless industrial aesthetic
  • Durable steel construction built for daily use
  • Excellent reach for large desks or shared reading areas

Cons

  • Industrial aesthetic may not fit every interior design style
  • Requires professional installation for wall mounting
  • Long reach requires sufficient clearance space to operate fully

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Lampe Gras No204 requires hardwired installation to a wall junction box. Due to the weight and mechanical nature of the arms, ensure your wall material is sturdy enough to support the base. For care, wipe the powder-coated steel surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive chemicals that could compromise the finish. Periodically check the tension of the articulated joints; if the lamp begins to drift, the screws at the pivot points may need a slight adjustment to restore the intended resistance.
