Bathroom furniture catalogue
I'm floundering - will need help on many of the items below and will post them in succession. It's the website of a bathroom furniture company. You can see the bathroom set in question here:

It's the red and white unit at the top of the page.

touka wall-mounted lighting fixture
Touka might be the company's model name for that item (like IKEA's names).
Note from asker:
| Yes, I was thinking along those lines. In the doc there are a lot of proper nouns spelt without a capital. Thanks |

Touka light fitting
Applique (murale) is usually translated as wall light or wall-mounted light fitting as there is no corresponding single-word term in English.
In this instance, the light fitting in question is mounted on the mirror so these options seem inappropriate.
As the phrase is mirroir + applique touka it is clear that the two elements come as one component. On that basis mirror + Touka light fitting, without further qualification, is sufficient.
