Chantilly 3 Light Semi-Flush Ceiling Light - Palladian Bronze

The Chantilly is a 457mm semi-flush ceiling light with three E27 bulbs behind an opal etched glass diffuser, supported by a Palladian bronze metal frame with curved arms radiating from a central ceiling mount. The frame extends 305mm from the ceiling, making it suitable for rooms with standard 2.4m ceiling heights where a full pendant would hang too low but a flush mount would provide insufficient light spread.

Designed for living rooms, bedrooms and entrance halls requiring even ambient light across a 12-16m² space, the Chantilly distributes light both downward through the glass and outward from the gap between the diffuser and the ceiling. The three E27 sockets accept standard bulbs up to 60W each (sold separately), allowing total output to be adjusted by bulb choice. The opal etched glass softens direct bulb glare while maintaining high light transmission, so the fixture provides functional room lighting rather than purely decorative wash.

The Palladian bronze finish is a warm dark brown-bronze with subtle copper undertones, visible in the curved metal arms that wrap around the glass bowl. The finish pairs with warm neutral interiors, oak and walnut furniture tones, and earth-toned textiles without the cooler contrast that brushed nickel or polished chrome would introduce. The glass diffuser is a simple bowl form rather than sculptural, keeping the fixture from overwhelming smaller rooms while still providing a focal point when the ceiling is in view.

What bulbs does it take?

The Chantilly takes three E27 (Edison screw) bulbs, each rated up to 60W maximum. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with 8-10W LED bulbs at 2700K-3000K for warm ambient light suitable for living spaces.

What ceiling height does it suit?

The 305mm projection from ceiling to base of diffuser suits standard UK ceiling heights of 2.4m or above. In rooms with 2.7-3m ceilings the fixture still works but appears proportionally smaller relative to the ceiling height.

Is it dimmable?

Dimming depends on the bulbs used. If you fit dimmable LED bulbs and pair them with a compatible LED dimmer switch, the Chantilly can be dimmed. The fixture itself does not include dimming electronics.

What size room does it suit?

The 457mm diameter and three-bulb configuration provide sufficient ambient light for rooms between 12-16m² (roughly 3.5m x 4m). Larger rooms may need a second light source or supplementary task lighting in corners.
