Description
A broad, shallow drum on a short stem, this sits close to the ceiling and spreads light sideways as much as down. The outer shade is faced in gold leaf over a white laminate, and a frosted acrylic diffuser closes the underside so the three lamps behind it read as an even wash of light. The metalwork is antique brass, warm and slightly aged rather than bright. Nothing about it shouts; the interest is in the gold surface catching whatever light is in the room.
At 50cm across it has the presence of a large shade without the drop, which makes it a sensible answer for a hallway, a landing, a bedroom or a dining room where the ceiling sits too low for a pendant to hang comfortably. We would put warm white LED GLS lamps in the E27 lampholders and leave the light doing the work rather than the fitting. It will dim, given suitable lamps and a compatible dimmer, and over a table that is worth arranging.
Construction is straightforward: a metal frame and body in antique brass, a laminate shade faced in gold leaf, and the frosted acrylic panel beneath. Keep it looking well with a soft brush or dry duster over the shade, and a barely damp cloth on the acrylic when fingerprints show, with the power off at the wall and the lamps cool first. It carries a one year warranty. Lamps are not included, so choose them to match the rest of the room. The range runs wider than this piece: we also stock a smaller semi flush in the same antique brass, along with linear pendants in brass, chrome and nickel for longer tables.

Frequently Asked
What lamps does it take?
Three E27 lamps, up to 20W each. We would choose LED GLS (A60) shapes in a warm white. Lamps are not supplied.
How far does it sit below the ceiling?
Overall height is 375mm on a 500mm diameter shade, with the metal body accounting for 170mm of that, so it stays tight to the ceiling for its width.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you use dimmable lamps with a compatible dimmer. Neither the lamps nor a dimmer come with it.
What is the shade made from?
A white laminate faced in gold leaf on the outside, with a frosted acrylic diffuser in an antique brass tone across the underside.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, so keep it to dry rooms such as bedrooms, halls, landings and living rooms.
