Alexandra 18 Light Crystal Flush Ceiling Light - Gold

The Alexandra is a 950mm crystal flush ceiling light built on a gold-finished metal frame, holding 18 E14 bulb fittings across a tiered structure of Asfour and Diyas crystal elements. The design combines 40mm clear crystal spheres with 62mm hexagonal crystal drops arranged in expanding circular tiers, creating multiple planes of refraction. A curved ring of tightly-packed crystal beads forms the outer perimeter, while cascading strands of smaller beads hang from the central mount, merging with the spheres and drops to create a layered composition.

Designed for rooms with standard ceiling heights where a conventional chandelier would hang too low, the Alexandra's 350mm drop fits comfortably in dining rooms, living rooms and entrance halls with 2.4m ceilings. The flush mount attaches directly to the ceiling rose, eliminating chain or rod suspension. The 950mm diameter suits rooms from 20-30 square metres, providing ambient light distributed across 18 bulb positions rather than concentrated in a single source. The gold frame softens reflections compared to chrome or polished nickel, producing warmer light tones when paired with 2700K-3000K LED candle bulbs.

The fixture weighs 37.3kg when fully assembled with all crystal elements fitted, requiring secure fixing to a ceiling joist or reinforced mounting point rather than standard plasterboard fixings alone. Each of the 18 E14 sockets accepts bulbs up to 60W, though most installations use 4-6W LED candle bulbs to keep power draw and heat output low. The combination of crystal spheres, hexagonal drops and beaded strands creates movement when air circulates, catching and scattering light across multiple facets.

Does it come with bulbs?

No. The Alexandra requires 18 E14 bulbs (small Edison screw), sold separately. Most buyers use 4-6W LED candle bulbs in warm white (2700K-3000K) to keep power consumption low while maintaining the warm glow through the gold frame.

Is it suitable for low ceilings?

Yes. The 350mm drop makes this a flush fitting rather than a pendant, so it works in rooms with standard 2.4m ceiling heights where a traditional chandelier would hang too low. The fitting sits close to the ceiling with minimal downward projection.

Can it be installed on a standard ceiling rose?

The fixture mounts to a standard UK ceiling rose, but the 37.3kg weight requires fixing to a ceiling joist or reinforced mounting point. Standard plasterboard fixings will not support this weight safely. Confirm joist position or install additional bracing before fitting.

Is it dimmable?

The fitting itself is compatible with dimming when paired with dimmable E14 LED bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch. Non-dimmable LED bulbs will not work with a dimmer and may flicker or fail.
