Description
A wide, shallow drum in faux silk sits tight to the ceiling, finished black on the outside with a white laminate lining that pushes light back into the room. Underneath, a frosted acrylic diffuser closes the base, so the five E27 lampholders behind it read as a soft wash rather than a row of bright points. At 60cm across it is a generous circle, and the shallow depth keeps it calm and low-key overhead.
We reach for this where a pendant would hang too low: a dining room under a modest ceiling, a wide landing, a bedroom where headroom matters more than drama. The black outer reads as a firm dark disc against a pale ceiling, which suits rooms with dark joinery or black metalwork already in play. Spread across a broad diffuser, the lampholders give a soft, general light without hotspots, and it will dim if you pair suitable lamps with a compatible dimmer. We would fit LED GLS lamps of the standard household shape, up to 20W apiece, which is ample for a main living space.
The shade is fabric over a laminate backing, with the acrylic panel doing the work below, and neither asks much of you: a dust with a dry cloth, and a barely damp wipe on the acrylic if kitchen air has left it looking dull. Switch off at the wall and let the lamps lose their heat before you handle anything. It carries a one year warranty. Elsewhere in the Baymont range there are smaller flush and semi-flush fittings, plus linear pendants, in polished chrome, satin nickel and antique brass, if you want the ceilings to agree from room to room. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What size is it?
The shade measures 600mm in diameter and 220mm deep, so it covers a broad area of ceiling while staying close to it.
Which lamps do I need?
It takes five E27 lamps, with LED GLS (A60) the sensible choice, rated to a maximum of 20W each. Lamps are supplied separately.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you use dimmable lamps and a compatible dimmer. Neither the lamps nor a dimmer come with it.
What is the shade made from?
Faux silk over a black and white laminate, with a frosted acrylic diffuser closing the underside.
How should I clean it?
Dust the fabric with a dry cloth and wipe the acrylic with a slightly damp one. Avoid solvents and abrasive creams, which will mark the surface.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, which makes it right for dry rooms such as bedrooms, dining rooms and landings rather than wet areas.
