Search on the internet for triac dimmer circuit or something along those lines. There are literally hundreds of dimmer designs available -- They are incredibly simple

yep all you then have to do is rate the tyristors/triac for your power requirements.

100W at 230V ~ 500mA which is nothing for thyristor/triacs so it is going to be small.
