Description
The Drasmena is a compact flush ceiling light in white, with a white steel body that sits close to the ceiling and a domed shade of matt opal glass. It is 20cm in diameter and just 9.2cm high, so it keeps a low profile in rooms where a pendant would hang too low. It takes a single E27 bulb of up to 60W, which you choose yourself, as the bulb is not included. With an IP20 rating it is made for dry rooms indoors, so it is not one for a bathroom or an outdoor wall.
Because it sits flush, the Drasmena suits lower ceilings and busy spaces where heads pass close to the light: hallways, landings, bedrooms and box rooms. It works just as well in a living room, where the opal glass spreads a soft, even glow over the whole space rather than a hard spot of light. At this size it is a good choice for smaller rooms, or fitted in pairs along a corridor. The plain white finish blends with a white or pale ceiling, so the light looks like part of the room rather than an object that asks for attention.
There is no switch on the fitting itself, as it is switched at the wall and runs from the light switch you already have. As a wired-in mains light, it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions are available as a download. The opal glass diffuses the bulb, so you see a glowing dome rather than a bright point, and glass wipes clean with a soft, dry cloth. Packed, it weighs a modest 0.918KG. For the bulb, any E27 lamp of up to 60W will suit, so you can pick the colour of light that best fits the room.

Frequently Asked
Can the Drasmena go in a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, which means it is made for dry rooms indoors, so we would keep it out of bathrooms and outdoor spaces.
Does this flush ceiling light come with a bulb?
The bulb is not included. It takes a single E27 bulb of up to 60W, so you can choose the bulb and the colour of light you prefer.
How big is the Drasmena ceiling light?
It is 20cm in diameter and 9.2cm high, a compact, low size that suits smaller rooms, hallways and landings with lower ceilings.
Does the light have its own switch?
No, there is no switch on the fitting. It is switched at the wall, so it works from the light switch already in your room.
What material is the shade?
The shade is matt opal glass in white, sitting on a white steel body, and the opal glass spreads the light softly and evenly across the room.
