The LED array provides the same light output as a 50W incandescent bulb. Also available in black. www.squarewalnut.com [2]

Available in white, black, red and chrome. www.kundalini.it [4]

The Aria Collection also features hanging and wall-mounted models that are perfect for lighting pictures or mirrors. www.metalspot.com [7]
