Kipsi Plaster Wall Light

Gypsum  

Care Requirement - Porous and moisture-sensitive 

Cleaning Guide - Gypsum plaster should be cleaned monthly or as needed to maintain its appearance. Gently dust with a soft cloth or brush to remove surface debris without damaging the finish. For marks or light stains, use a slightly damp cloth, taking care to apply minimal moisture due to the material’s porous nature. It is important to dry the surface immediately after cleaning to prevent moisture absorption, which can lead to staining or deterioration over time. 

Placement Guide - Gypsum plaster should be positioned in areas with medium, indirect sunlight exposure, as it is porous and sensitive to UV, with prolonged direct exposure potentially causing chalking, yellowing or fading over time. It has a high tolerance to saltwater environments, though protection from direct exposure is recommended to preserve the finish. Gypsum plaster can generally withstand higher proximity to heat sources, but excessive or prolonged heat should be avoided to prevent drying or cracking. It performs best in moderate humidity conditions, helping maintain its structural integrity. Repositioning is not required, as gypsum plaster is typically fixed and stable once installed. 

Deep Cleaning Guide - Gypsum plaster should be deep cleaned with care as needed, due to its porous nature. Use minimal moisture and a soft cloth to gently remove any build-up, avoiding saturation as plaster can absorb water and become damaged. Where required, consider applying a protective coating or sealant to help safeguard the surface over time. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals such as bleach, ammonia or solvent-based cleaners, as well as abrasive materials like steel wool, which can damage the finish. Refrain from harsh scrubbing or forceful cleaning, and do not expose plaster to solvents, oils or petroleum-based products. DIY cleaning methods such as vinegar or baking soda should also be avoided to preserve the integrity of the material.

Can the Kipsi Wall Light be painted? 
Yes. The Kipsi Wall Light is made from gypsum plaster, which means it can be painted to match your wall colour or finished in a contrasting shade. This allows the light to either blend seamlessly into the architecture or become a subtle design feature within the space. 

Does the Kipsi Wall Light include a light source? 
Yes, the Kipsi Wall Light features an integrated LED light source, so no globe is required. It uses 2 × 3W LEDs producing approximately 460 lumens at 3000K, creating a warm, comfortable light suitable for interior spaces. 

What type of lighting effect does the Kipsi Wall Light create? 
The Kipsi Wall Light produces a soft up-and-down wall-washing effect, casting light both above and below the fitting. This creates a warm architectural glow that highlights wall textures and adds subtle ambient lighting to hallways, living rooms, or bedrooms.
