Description
A wide drum shade in gold foil sits close under the ceiling on an antique brass body, throwing light up across the ceiling as much as down into the room. At 40cm across, the shade is broad enough to hold the middle of a room, while the short body keeps everything tucked up high. A white laminate lining keeps the light clean rather than tinted. It takes a single E27 lamp, and we would fit a GLS LED globe here.
We suggest this where a pendant would hang too low: a landing, a hallway, a bedroom with a modest ceiling, or a small dining area where you want the table lit with nothing in the eyeline. Warm metal and a bright lining give a flattering evening light in a sitting room or bedroom. It will dim with a suitable lamp and dimmer switch, neither of which comes with it. Keep it to dry rooms; a bathroom or a covered porch asks for something rated for damp.
The metalwork wears an antique brass finish, aged rather than bright, and the shade is a laminate build with gold foil outside and white inside. Dusting is usually all it asks for: a soft dry brush over the shade, a light buff on the brass, and no sprays or damp cloths near the laminate. It carries a one year warranty. Lamps are bought separately, and we would keep to 20W or less. The wider Baymont range runs to universal flush and semi flush fixtures and linear pendants, in polished chrome, satin nickel and satin black as well as this antique brass, so a matching finish is easy enough elsewhere in the house.

Frequently Asked
How much space does it need below the ceiling?
It measures 400mm in diameter and 380mm in overall height, with the metal body accounting for 180mm of that. The shade itself is 180mm deep, so it stays well clear of head height in most rooms.
Which lamp should I use?
One E27 lamp, up to 20W, and a GLS A60 LED shape suits the shade best. Lamps are not included.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you use a dimmable lamp with a compatible dimmer switch. Neither the lamp nor the dimmer is supplied.
How do I clean the gold foil shade?
Switch the light off and let it cool, then take dust off with a soft dry brush or cloth. Avoid water, sprays and solvents, as the foil and laminate do not take kindly to them.
Is it suitable for a bathroom or an outside porch?
No. It is rated for dry indoor rooms only, so choose a fitting rated for damp or wet conditions in those spots.
How long is the warranty?
It carries a one year warranty from the manufacturer.
