Coniston 5 Light Bar Crystal Flush Ceiling Light - Antique Brass

The Coniston is a 967mm linear flush ceiling light with five tiers of faceted clear crystal droplets suspended from an antique brass rectangular frame, housing 11 E14 bulb fittings across the length. The crystal tiers cascade down from the ceiling plate, forming a shallow dome profile 310mm deep that sits close to the ceiling without requiring recessed mounting.

Designed for dining rooms, living rooms and entrance halls with standard ceiling heights between 2.4m and 2.7m, the Coniston provides both ambient and decorative lighting across a narrow horizontal spread. The 967mm length suits rectangular dining tables between 1.8m and 2.4m long, positioned centrally above the table surface. The flush-mount design works in rooms where a traditional pendant would hang too low or where ceiling height does not allow for a drop fitting.

Each of the 11 bulbs sits behind multiple tiers of crystal, so when lit the crystals refract and multiply the light source across the room. The antique brass finish on the frame and ceiling plate shows a darker patina than polished or brushed brass, with visible tonal variation that reads as aged metalwork rather than new. The combined weight of the brass frame and crystal droplets totals 21.8kg, requiring secure fixing to a ceiling joist or reinforced mounting point.

The fitting accepts dimmable E14 bulbs (sold separately), allowing the light level to be controlled from full output for task lighting during meals to low output for evening ambient use. The 20W maximum per bulb means LED candle bulbs between 3W and 6W are the typical choice, giving a combined output of 33-66W equivalent across the 11 fittings.

What bulbs does the Coniston take?

The fitting takes 11 E14 small Edison screw bulbs, each rated up to 20W maximum. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED candle bulbs between 3W and 6W at 2700K for dining room use.

Is it suitable for low ceilings?

Yes. The 310mm projection from the ceiling means the lowest point of the crystals sits approximately 2.09m above the floor in a standard 2.4m ceiling room, leaving clearance for circulation underneath. The flush-mount design avoids the drop cable of a pendant fitting.

Can it be dimmed?

Yes, provided you fit dimmable E14 bulbs and pair them with a compatible trailing-edge LED dimmer switch. The fitting itself has no dimming restriction, but dimmer compatibility depends on the specific bulb model chosen.

How is the fitting secured to the ceiling?

At 21.8kg the Coniston requires fixing directly into a ceiling joist or into a reinforced mounting point. The rectangular ceiling plate measures 967mm x 387mm and must be supported at multiple points across its length, not just at the centre. Professional installation is recommended.
