Dallas 12 Light Semi-Flush Ceiling Light - Black with Smoked Glass

The Dallas is a 12 light semi-flush ceiling light arranged in a molecular pattern across a 60cm diameter matt black metal frame. Each light sits inside a blown smoked glass globe approximately 12cm across, housing a G9 bulb (sold separately). The entire fitting projects 20cm from the ceiling, positioning the lowest globes approximately 15cm below the ceiling plane.

Designed for living rooms, bedrooms and hallways with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above, the Dallas provides ambient light distributed across multiple points rather than concentrated in a single central source. The smoked glass diffuses the light from each G9 bulb, softening the output and reducing direct glare while still allowing the filament or LED element to be visible inside each globe. The semi-flush design keeps the fitting close to the ceiling, making it suitable for standard UK ceiling heights where a full pendant drop would encroach on headroom.

The matt black finish on the frame absorbs rather than reflects light, keeping visual focus on the twelve smoked glass globes when the fitting is lit. The molecular arrangement spreads the lights asymmetrically across the frame rather than in a symmetrical grid, giving the fitting an organic rather than geometric appearance. The smoked glass is hand-blown, so each globe shows slight variation in tone and bubble pattern. The fitting weighs approximately 3.5kg and requires a ceiling plate capable of supporting that load plus the additional weight of twelve G9 bulbs.

The IP20 rating limits the Dallas to dry indoor locations — it is not suitable for bathrooms, outdoor use, or damp zones. The G9 base accepts halogen or LED G9 bulbs up to 28W per socket, with most users pairing this fitting with 3-5W LED G9 bulbs in 2700K-3000K to balance light output with energy consumption across the twelve sockets.

Product Manual

What bulbs does the Dallas require?

The fitting takes twelve G9 bulbs, sold separately. Each socket supports up to 28W, but most users fit LED G9 bulbs between 3-5W in warm white (2700K-3000K) to balance light output with running cost. Halogen G9 bulbs are also compatible but generate more heat.

What ceiling height is needed?

The 20cm projection suits rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above. In lower-ceiling rooms the fitting may feel visually dominant, though it does not drop low enough to interfere with headroom in typical hallways or living spaces.

Is the smoked glass removable for bulb changes?

Yes. Each smoked glass globe unscrews or unclips from its socket housing to allow bulb access. The specific fixing method is detailed in the product manual linked in the Downloads tab.

Can it be fitted to a sloped ceiling?

No. The semi-flush design requires a flat horizontal ceiling surface for the backplate to sit flush. Sloped or vaulted ceilings would require a ceiling plate adapter, which is not supplied with the fitting.
