Ancona 4 Light Semi-Flush Ceiling Light - Satin Gold Frosted Glass

The Ancona is a 470mm-diameter semi-flush ceiling light with four frosted glass shades mounted on curved satin French gold arms radiating from a central ceiling canopy. Each shade houses a G9 bulb (included), and the frosted glass diffuses the light to create an ambient wash rather than direct task illumination. The 250mm drop from ceiling to bottom of shade suits standard ceiling heights of 2.4m or above without dominating headroom.

Designed for living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and dining rooms where low ceiling projection is needed but full flush-mount fittings feel too minimal, the Ancona sits close to the ceiling while retaining decorative presence. The curved arms create visual interest from below and the satin gold finish provides a warmer alternative to polished chrome or brushed nickel in rooms with neutral palettes, light wood floors or warm-toned soft furnishings. The frosted glass softens the bulb glare and gives an opal-white glow when lit.

Each G9 socket accepts up to 40W per bulb (160W combined), and the fixture is dimmable when paired with dimmable G9 LEDs and a compatible dimmer switch. The satin finish on the gold metalwork is brushed rather than polished, reducing reflections and fingerprint visibility. From Diyas Lighting, the Ancona is part of a broader range of satin gold ceiling and wall fittings that share the same finish and can be used to coordinate lighting across multiple rooms.

Are the bulbs included?

Yes. The Ancona ships with four G9 bulbs installed. These are standard halogen G9s. Many buyers replace them with LED G9 bulbs for lower running costs and longer bulb life.

Is the Ancona dimmable?

The fixture itself supports dimming, but dimmer compatibility depends on the bulbs fitted. The included halogen G9s are dimmable with most trailing-edge dimmers. If you replace them with LED G9s, confirm the LEDs are marked as dimmable and pair them with a compatible LED dimmer.

What ceiling height does it suit?

The 250mm projection from ceiling to bottom of shade works well in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above. In lower-ceilinged rooms the fitting still works but may feel more present overhead, particularly in hallways or smaller bedrooms.

Can the frosted shades be cleaned?

Yes. Switch off the power and allow the bulbs to cool. Wipe the frosted glass with a dry microfibre cloth. For more stubborn marks, a barely-damp cloth with distilled water is acceptable, but avoid soaking the glass or using household sprays that might damage the satin gold metalwork.
