Coniston 12 Light Crystal Flush Ceiling Light - Antique Brass

The Coniston is a 400mm crystal flush ceiling light with 12 x E14 bulb fittings arranged in concentric tiers inside an antique brass circular frame. The frame sits close to the ceiling at 250mm total drop, with cascading clear crystal droplets suspended from the brass band in three descending rows that create a domed profile. Each crystal is facet-cut to refract light from the 12 bulbs, scattering warm reflections across the ceiling and upper walls.

Designed for rooms with ceiling heights between 2.3m and 2.7m where a traditional chandelier drop would be impractical, the Coniston delivers chandelier-style crystal light in a flush-mount format. The fitting suits dining rooms, hallways, traditional living rooms and master bedrooms where the ceiling needs to remain clear but decorative impact is still wanted. The antique brass finish shows a patinated tone darker than polished brass, with a muted sheen that absorbs rather than reflects ambient light from windows or other fittings.

The 12-light configuration spreads illumination evenly across a 4m x 4m room when paired with 3-5W LED candle bulbs at 2700K-3000K (bulbs sold separately). The crystals are machine-cut glass rather than lead crystal, keeping the weight at 5.9kg while still producing the refractive sparkle associated with traditional chandeliers. The flush mount plate covers a standard UK ceiling rose and the fitting is compatible with dimmable LED bulbs when paired with an appropriate dimmer switch.

The antique brass finish pairs with warm-toned traditional interiors that use oak, walnut, terracotta or heritage paint colours, and complements other antique brass fixtures such as door handles, curtain poles and light switches. The clear crystals catch natural daylight during the day, adding decorative interest even when the bulbs are off.

What bulbs does the Coniston take?

The fitting takes 12 x E14 (small Edison screw) bulbs up to 20W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with 3-5W LED candle bulbs in warm white (2700K-3000K) for a traditional look and lower running costs.

Is it suitable for low ceilings?

Yes. At 250mm total drop, the Coniston works in rooms with ceiling heights from 2.3m upwards. The flush mount design keeps the fitting close to the ceiling while still providing the decorative presence of a crystal chandelier.

Is the Coniston dimmable?

Yes, when paired with dimmable E14 LED bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch. Check the bulb packaging for dimmer compatibility before purchasing.

How is the crystal cleaned?

The crystals are machine-cut glass and can be wiped with a barely-damp microfibre cloth. For deeper cleaning, individual droplets can be removed from their fixing pins, washed in warm soapy water, dried, and re-hung. Do not spray cleaning fluid directly onto the brass frame or electrical components.
