Description
Recessed lighting does not have to be anonymous. Here, three levels of clear crystal beads hang around a polished chrome frame, so the fitting reads as a small piece of jewellery in the ceiling rather than a plain circle. The chrome is bright and mirror-bright, and the beads catch whatever light passes through them, scattering fine points across the plaster nearby. It takes a GU10 lamp, and a 60mm cut-out keeps the fitting neat in the ceiling.
We would choose it where a room needs a little sparkle without another shade hanging in the air: over a dressing table, along a hallway, or above a dining table where a pendant would sit too low. It suits anyone who likes the even glow of downlights but finds a plain run of them flat. Fit a dimmable lamp on a compatible dimmer and the crystal softens as the light drops. A reflector lamp is the one we reach for here, keeping the beam tidy and the beads lit from behind.
The frame is metal under its polished chrome plating, and the crystal is clear and faceted. For cleaning, work with the power off and the lamp cool: dust the beads with a soft brush, which gets between them better than a cloth, then wipe the chrome with a barely damp cloth and dry it so the shine is not marked. Avoid sprays and anything abrasive on either part. This one is for dry rooms indoors, so kitchens and living spaces rather than showers. It carries a one year warranty. We also stock the same fitting in French gold with clear crystal, which is worth a look if the metalwork in the room runs warm rather than cool. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What size hole does it need?
The cut-out is 60mm. The visible trim measures 83mm across, so it covers a little beyond the aperture.
How deep is the fitting?
It stands 60mm from front to back.
Which lamp should I use?
A GU10 LED with a 50mm reflector suits it best, up to a maximum of 50W.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you use a dimmable lamp on a compatible dimmer. Neither the lamp nor a dimmer is supplied.
Can the crystal beads be taken off for cleaning?
There is no need to remove them. A soft brush lifts dust from between the beads while they stay in place, once the power is off and the lamp has cooled.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, so keep it to dry rooms away from splashing.
