The Kimble is a gypsum wall light in a shallow curve, finished in sand-texturedwhite. Like its sibling the Camero, the material is the point: gypsum reads as part of the wall ratherthan as a fitting screwed onto it.

A curve rather than a half-circle

Where the Camero is a half-round, the Kimble is a wider, shallower curve 245mm across but only 95mm high, projecting 120mm. That low profilesuits a corridor or a stairwell where a deeper fitting would catch a shoulder, and it throws a wider,flatter wash up and down the wall.

Sand texture, and how to look after it

The finish is matte and slightly rough, closer to render than to painted metal. Against a white oroff-white wall it nearly disappears unlit. Clean it with a dry cloth only liquid cleaners mark gypsum and the mark does not come out.

Where it works

• Corridors and stairwells, where the shallow 120mm projection keeps it out of the way.
• Bedheads in pairs, as an alternative to bedside lamps.
• Living rooms, washing a feature wall from mid-height.
• Rendered and plastered interiors where a metal fitting would look applied.

Specifying it

It is 245mm wide, 95mm high and projects 120mm. It takes asingle E14 globe up to 20W the smaller screw base, not the common E27 and the globe is not supplied. It runs on 240V, isIP20 indoor and dry locations only, and is ClassI, so an earthis required and a licensed electrician installs it. Dimming is globe dependent. Warranty isthree years.

Supplied and supported by Lights For You. If you are running Kimble and Camero in the same house,they share the material and finish, so they read as one family.

Questions

What is it made of?

Gypsum with a sand-textured white finish, so it reads as part of the wall rather than a fitting mounted on it.

How far does it project?

120mm, on a fitting 245mm wide and 95mm high shallow enough for a corridor.

What globe does it take?

One E14 globe of up to 20W the smaller screw base. It is not supplied.

How do I clean it?

A dry cloth only. Liquid cleaners mark gypsum permanently.

How is it different from the Camero?

The Kimble is a wider, shallower curve; the Camero is a half-round. Same material and finish, so they can be used together.

Three years, as a replacement warranty.
