Description
A wide, shallow drum in faux silk sits close to the ceiling here, its grey outer face lined with a white laminate that bounces light back down rather than soaking it up. A frosted acrylic diffuser closes the underside, so the three E27 lamps read as one soft, even wash instead of three bright points. At 50cm across it is a generous circle, yet it stays shallow and holds tight to the ceiling line.
We reach for this in rooms where a pendant would hang too low: landings, hallways, bedrooms under a sloping or low ceiling, and anywhere head height is tight above a bed or a stair turn. There is enough output here for a main living room too, and it will dim if you pair suitable lamps with a compatible dimmer. Grey is an easy neighbour to warm white walls, painted timber and darker carpets, and the white lining keeps the fitting from looking heavy when it is switched off.
The shade is fabric over a laminate lining, with the acrylic diffuser fitted beneath, and the whole thing is light for its diameter. Dust the fabric with a soft brush or a vacuum upholstery head on its lowest setting; the acrylic takes a barely damp cloth, dried straight after, and no sprays or solvents, which can cloud the surface over time. It carries a one year warranty. Lamps are not included, and we would choose GLS shaped LEDs in a warm white so the diffuser glows evenly. The wider Baymont range runs to smaller flush and drop flush fixtures in white and polished chrome, single light semi flush fittings in satin nickel, antique brass and satin black, and linear pendants if you want the same E27 lampholders spread along a dining table.

Frequently Asked
How far does it drop from the ceiling?
The fitting is 200mm deep overall, so it sits close in and suits ceilings where a hanging pendant would be in the way.
What lamps should I fit?
Three E27 lamps, up to 20W each. LED GLS A60 shapes work best, as they sit neatly behind the frosted diffuser.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you use dimmable lamps with a compatible dimmer. No dimmer is supplied with the fitting.
What is the diffuser made from?
Frosted acrylic, which softens the light and hides the lamps from view. Clean it with a barely damp cloth and dry it, rather than a spray polish.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated for dry rooms only, so keep it to bedrooms, halls, landings and living spaces.
How wide is the shade?
It measures 500mm in diameter, which reads as a large circle on the ceiling and suits medium to bigger rooms.
