Description
The Asheville is a 381mm diameter flush ceiling light with a handcrafted Tiffany-style art glass shade in amber, caramel and burgundy tones, set on a valiant bronze metal frame. Each glass segment is cut, wrapped in copper foil and soldered in the traditional method developed by Louis Comfort Tiffany in the late 1800s, creating radiating panels that angle upward from the centre mount. Two E27 bulbs inside the shade cast warm light through the coloured glass, turning the ceiling fitting itself into a decorative accent.
Designed for rooms with ceiling heights below 2.4m where a pendant would hang too low, the Asheville sits just 167mm proud of the ceiling and provides both ambient and decorative function. The flush mount works in hallways, landings, low-ceilinged living rooms, bedrooms and dining rooms where a traditional or Arts and Crafts aesthetic is wanted without sacrificing headroom. The shallow profile means the fitting clears door openings and sits comfortably above standard 2m door frames.
The valiant bronze finish is a warm, antiqued brown-toned metal that complements the amber and burgundy glass without competing for attention. The weight of the handcrafted glass shade gives the fitting a substantial presence despite its compact footprint, and the art glass construction means each Asheville shows slight variation in colour tone and pattern depending on the individual glass pieces used during assembly. The combination of copper foil seams, art glass and bronze metalwork pairs well with traditional oak, walnut and mahogany furniture, warm-toned walls and heritage interiors.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does it take?
The Asheville takes two E27 Edison screw bulbs up to 60W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED bulbs between 6-8W and 2700K to complement the amber and earth tones in the glass.
Is it suitable for low ceilings?
Yes. The 167mm projection makes this fitting suitable for rooms with ceiling heights below 2.4m where a pendant would hang too low. It clears standard 2m door frames comfortably and provides ambient light without encroaching on headroom.
Is the Tiffany glass handcrafted?
Yes. Each glass shade is assembled using the copper foil method developed by Louis Comfort Tiffany, where individual glass pieces are cut, wrapped in copper foil and soldered together. This means slight variation in colour tone and pattern between individual fittings.
What rooms is it best suited to?
The Asheville works in hallways, landings, low-ceilinged living rooms, bedrooms and dining rooms where a traditional or Arts and Crafts aesthetic is wanted. The warm amber and burgundy tones suit interiors with oak, walnut or mahogany furniture and warm-toned walls.
