Alexandra 16 Light Crystal Flush Ceiling Light - Polished Chrome

The Alexandra is a 770mm flush-mount crystal ceiling light built around a tiered arrangement of Asfour and Diyas crystal components on a polished chrome frame. Sixteen E14 bulbs (sold separately) sit within the fixture, illuminating 40mm crystal spheres, 62mm hexagonal drops, and vertical strands of crystal beads that cascade from the upper canopy to the lower tiers. The 310mm drop sits close enough to the ceiling to suit rooms with 2.4m ceiling heights where a chandelier would hang too low.

Designed for living rooms, dining rooms and entrance halls between 20-30m², the Alexandra provides both ambient and decorative light. The flush mount fixing means all wiring and the ceiling rose are concealed behind the polished chrome canopy, giving a cleaner finish than chain-suspended pendants. The tiered crystal arrangement widens gently from the canopy to the lower ring, forming a shallow dome that distributes light outward and downward rather than straight down like a flat flush fitting. When lit, the crystal spheres and hexagonal drops refract the light into multiple directional beams across the ceiling and upper walls.

The fixture weighs 24.1kg, requiring secure fixing to a joist or ceiling support capable of carrying that load — this is not suitable for plasterboard-only fixing without reinforcement. The polished chrome finish reflects more light than brushed or satin finishes, intensifying the sparkle from the crystal when the bulbs are on and maintaining a bright metallic appearance when off. The crystal ring along the lower perimeter is formed from densely packed beads, creating a continuous band of refracted light around the fixture's edge. The Alexandra is dimmable when paired with dimmable E14 LED bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch.

What bulbs does the Alexandra take?

The fixture takes sixteen E14 (small Edison screw) bulbs, each rated up to 60W maximum. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with LED candle or golf ball bulbs between 4-6W in warm white (2700K-3000K) for dining and living rooms.

Is it suitable for low ceilings?

Yes. At 310mm drop, the Alexandra is designed as a flush-mount fitting for rooms with 2.4m ceiling heights or above. The shallow dome profile keeps the fixture close to the ceiling while still providing decorative crystal detail.

Can the Alexandra be dimmed?

Yes, when paired with dimmable E14 LED bulbs and a compatible LED dimmer switch. Dimmer compatibility varies by bulb brand, so check the bulb packaging confirms it as dimmable before installation.

What fixing is required for the weight?

The fixture weighs 24.1kg and must be fixed to a ceiling joist or reinforced support capable of carrying that load. Standard plasterboard alone is not sufficient — fixing requires a joist location or the installation of a spreader plate across multiple joists.
