The DCW Editions Lampe Gras No204 L40 Double Wall Light is an industrial-inspired task light designed for those who value precision, heritage design, and functional versatility. Originally created for engineers and draftsmen in 1921, this double-arm wall light excels in home offices, bedrooms, and reading nooks by offering independent articulation across three points for each arm. While its robust, industrial aesthetic adds significant character to any interior, users should note that as a hard-wired fixture without an integrated switch, it requires professional installation and wall-based control.

No, this specific version (No204 L40 No Switch) is designed to be controlled via a wall light switch.
Because of the weight and the reach of the double arms, it is best mounted into wall studs or a reinforced backing to ensure long-term stability.
Consult the specific technical documentation included with your unit to ensure the bulb wattage and base type are compatible.
No, this is an indoor fixture and is not rated for exposure to moisture or outdoor elements.
The L40 designation refers to the length of the arm; the total reach depends on the angle at which you set the three pivot points.
It is recommended to use only the shades and components designed specifically for your model series to ensure proper fit and safety.
Check the tension of the adjustment screws at the pivot points and tighten them slightly using the appropriate tool.
Ensure the bulb is tightened fully in the socket and verify that the electrical connection at the wall base is secure.
Installation of the No204 L40 requires hard-wiring directly into your electrical wall system. It is strongly recommended to hire a licensed electrician to ensure the wall mount is secure, as the dual-arm design creates a lever effect that requires a solid anchoring point.
For care, the steel body is finished to be a durable, working object. Dust the arms and the shade regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the painted finish. If the joints feel stiff after several years, you may consult a specialist for light maintenance of the pivot mechanisms, but avoid applying oil or lubricants without consulting the manufacturer's care guidelines.
