Description
A wide drum shade sits close to the ceiling here, carried on an antique brass frame and wrapped in gold leaf with a pale laminate lining that warms the light as it bounces. Underneath, a frosted acrylic diffuser rimmed in antique brass closes the fitting off and spreads the output from five E27 lamps evenly downwards, so the glow reads as one soft plane rather than a row of bright spots. At 60cm across it is a generous shape, yet it keeps its bulk tucked up against the ceiling.
This is the fitting we reach for over a dining table where a pendant would hang too low, and it does the same job well in a hallway, a landing or a bedroom with a ceiling that will not take a drop. Five lamps give it real reach for a sitting room too, and because it will dim with suitable lamps and a compatible dimmer you can pull it back to something quieter after dark. It needs an earthed supply and belongs in dry rooms indoors.
The frame and trim are metal in an antique brass finish, the shade is laminated and gold leafed, and the diffuser is acrylic rather than glass, which keeps the weight down for something this broad. Dust the shade with a soft brush or the upholstery attachment, and lift the diffuser only when the lamps are cold, wiping it with a barely damp cloth and drying it before it goes back. It carries a one year warranty. We stock the wider Baymont range in polished chrome, satin nickel, satin black and white as well as antique brass, including single lamp semi flush fittings and linear pendants that take shades of your own choosing, so a hallway and a dining room can be kept in step. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What lamps does it take, and what is the maximum wattage?
It takes five E27 lamps, each rated to a maximum of 20W. LED GLS A60 lamps are the recommended choice and give the best result behind the frosted diffuser.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you fit dimmable lamps and a dimmer switch matched to them. Neither a lamp nor a dimmer is supplied.
How far does it hang below the ceiling?
The overall height is 42cm, with the body itself measuring 220mm deep, so it sits close in and suits rooms where a hanging pendant would be in the way.
How wide is the shade?
The shade measures 600mm in diameter, which makes it a good match for a dining table or a wide hallway rather than a small box room.
What is the diffuser made from?
Acrylic, in a frosted finish with an antique brass rim. It is lighter than glass and simply needs a wipe with a soft, barely damp cloth once the lamps have cooled.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20 and is intended for dry indoor rooms such as bedrooms, hallways and dining rooms.
