Frame Light – A Thin Line Above the Picture and Little Else to See

A slim aluminum bar made to sit above a frame and send light down across its face. Nothing is wired in: the battery charges, the fixture clips back onto its bracket. A handset steps brightness and lighting mode without anyone touching the unit.

Why choose this slim frame light?

A heavy fixture ends up competing with the work it is meant to light. Keeping the profile down to a narrow strip lets the eye settle on the picture and treat the hardware as trim. Losing the cable removes the last thing on the wall that was never part of the composition.

• Narrow profile: Reads as a line of trim above the frame rather than as a lamp.
• Handheld remote: Adjust brightness and mode from the sofa or the doorway.
• Rechargeable power: No fixed wiring, so any wall in the room is a candidate.
• Integrated LED: An even run of light along the bar with no bulb to source later.
• Aluminum shell: Rigid enough to stay straight across the full length.

Gallery lighting without the gallery's electrical budget.

Mount it a little above the top edge of the frame so the beam runs down the face and not out into the room. It works over a living room wall, a hallway, a bedroom or a display shelf. Since nothing is hardwired, it moves with the furniture when you rearrange.
