Product Information
Full details
The Frandsen Ball Wall Sconce is an ideal lighting solution for minimalists and design enthusiasts looking for a versatile, functional accent light. Designed by Benny Frandsen, its standout feature is a magnetic joint that allows for effortless rotation and directional light, though its compact size means it functions best as task or mood lighting rather than a primary room light source.

FAQs
Does this lamp come with a cord or is it hardwired?
This model is designed for hardwired installation into a standard wall junction box.
What type of bulb does it use?
The lamp uses an E14 socket with a maximum capacity of 25W.
Can I use an LED bulb?
Yes, LED bulbs are fully compatible and recommended for lower energy consumption and less heat.
How does the magnetic rotation work?
The lamp utilizes a strong magnet between the wall-mounted bracket and the spherical shade, allowing the shade to pivot freely to any angle.
Is this lamp dimmable?
Dimmability depends on the bulb you choose and your home's wall switch system. Use a compatible dimmable LED bulb and a compatible dimmer switch to achieve this.
Troubleshooting
Lamp does not turn on
Check the light bulb to ensure it is screwed in properly or replace it if it is burnt out. Verify the electrical connection at the wall junction.
Shade does not stay in place
The magnetic joint might have accumulated dust or debris. Carefully wipe the interior of the bracket and the surface of the shade with a microfiber cloth to restore magnetic contact.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This wall-mounted light requires direct electrical connection to a 230V source. Ensure your wall box is compatible before beginning installation.
- Installation: Always turn off the power at the main breaker before starting. Follow the included mounting instructions to secure the bracket to the wall.
- Bulb Compatibility: Use an E14 light source with a maximum of 25W. LED bulbs are recommended for energy efficiency and to prevent excess heat buildup within the metal shade.
- Care Instructions: Clean the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these will scratch the matte black finish. Periodically check the tension of the magnetic joint to ensure the shade remains stable in your preferred position.
