Description
A shallow ceiling box measuring 11cm across, finished in antique silver so it reads as aged metal rather than bright plate. It comes complete with a cable grip, an earth wire and a three pole terminal block, so the connections have a proper home and the flex is held at the grip instead of pulling on its cores. There is no lamp and no lampholder here: it is a cover with the working parts tucked inside.
We reach for one of these whenever a pendant or a length of flex needs a tidier finishing point overhead, and especially where a plain white plastic rose would look wrong under a metal shade. Antique silver sits well with pewter, nickel and older chrome, which makes it a good match for hallways, stairwells, kitchens and bedrooms in houses with some period character. It also earns its keep in a row of pendants over a table or an island, where matching boxes above keep the line reading straight. Keep it to dry rooms in the house, though, rather than a porch or a bathroom.
The antique silver is muted rather than shiny, a quieter grey than polished plate. Cleaning asks for very little: an occasional pass with a dry duster, and no metal polish or spray cleaner, both of which will strip the aged look back to something brighter. It carries a one year warranty. We stock the same box in matt black, matt white, polished chrome, satin nickel, antique brass, antique copper, black chrome, aged pewter, copper and gold finishes, so a set can be matched to the fittings below, and the range also includes deeper lampholder rings where a pendant needs a little more room. Pendant sets and lamps are chosen separately.

Frequently Asked
What is supplied with it?
It comes with a cable grip, an earth wire and a three pole terminal block, so the parts needed for the cable work are included.
What are the dimensions?
It is 110mm in diameter and 25mm high, and it weighs 0.21kg.
Does it include a lamp or a lampholder?
No. This is a non-electrical ceiling box, so the lamp and lampholder belong to the pendant or fitting it serves.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
It is rated IP20, which makes it right for dry indoor rooms and not for a shower room, bathroom zone or anywhere exposed to damp.
How should the antique silver finish be looked after?
Dust it now and then with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid metal polishes, abrasive pads and household sprays, as these can take the shine up and lose the aged tone.
