Review on Ciata Lighting 14 Inch Picture Fixture by Matt White

Revainrating 2 out of 5

This will not work if your outlet is behind the image.

I missed the plug in the photo. Yes it was bad, BUT why would any manufacturer make a photographic lamp without putting a "rectangular" plug on it? I installed mounting boxes where I wanted the picture and looked for the right lamp. It arrived and I was shocked (no pun intended) when I saw the fork. Luckily I had a place to use it - where the wire wasn't so repulsively ugly. Anyway, if you don't mind that the cord is visible, this is a very good lamp - looks good, correct brightness, low glare, looks like decent quality. I want the head to turn down, but they're all about the same. Even after bending the shaft you can still see the light under the brass. So I had to start looking again for picture lamps with rectangular forks. Forget Troy House and Westinghouse if you want this fork. Otherwise I recommend this product. The seller is excellent, I'm stupid.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires outlet
