The Focus SB® Ambassador Wall Light is an exclusive light fitting design conceived by the British premium electrical accessories manufacturer’s experienced in-house engineers and metal finishing experts. In a unique design collaboration, this stylish piece is enhanced by the beautifully handcrafted glass shades made by Gwyn Carless at The Light Yard and now comes with the addition of four exceptional metal finishes to complement existing options.
Perfectly paired with a selection of exquisitely handcrafted glass shades from the master craftsman Gwyn Carless at The Light Yard, the new timeless metal finishes selected for the Focus SB Ambassador Wall Light sees the introduction of Chocolate Bronze, Polished Chrome, Satin Nickel and Unlacquered Brass. These eye-catching finishes will enhance the elegant tall glass shades of the distinctive wall mounted bedside light, created to match multiple products across Focus SB’s Ambassador Square range. This bespoke wall light gives lighting consultants and designers additional desirable finish detail continuity options throughout an interiors scheme.
The bespoke light fitting joins Focus SB’s extensive suite of own brand hospitality and smart home products. In this industry-first design collaboration for both companies, a close working relationship showcases the creation of stylish bedside lighting suited to hotel suites for a seamless guest experience. Luxury design consultants can now specify unique handcrafted bedside lighting pieces in attractive clear, smoked and reeded glass shades, benefitting from Focus SB’s ability to match finishes across complementary products including power outlets, traditional style dimmer switches, keypads, panic alarm buttons and sounder plates, hotel key card switches, do not disturb (DND), shaver sockets and ‘hotel style’ combination plates.
The glass shade details of each Ambassador Wall Light feature rare traditional artisanal techniques and are painstakingly cut by hand using a ruler and glass knife, then bonded by hand at Gwyn’s Chesterfield studio. Edges are also arrised (smoothed) by hand. The long thin rectangular glass shades are complemented by a striking Tubular Gold Flex LED filament dimmable lamp. For this range Gwyn Carless offers a shade finished in hand applied gold leaf by enquiry.
The Ambassador Wall Light joins Focus SB’s established Ambassador range of metal grid front plates and components, all manufactured in-house from the finest raw materials. The range features traditional style retractive light switches finished to match faceplates and specialist bespoke products for hotel interior designers, smart home integrators and heritage interiors consultants. The company’s unrivalled selection of faceplate and switch styles are precision engineered to order, offering outstanding design and finish continuity including laser marking for finely detailed text and iconography, giving flexibility to discerning designers and property owners to achieve remarkable metallic ‘wall jewellery’ harmony or contrast.
The exquisite, handcrafted Ambassador Wall Light harnesses the power of partnership and showcases the prowess of traditional artisanal skills complemented by the latest in high-tech manufacturing processes. It is a demonstration of the expertise and dedication involved in producing outstanding quality products designed and made in Britain today.
