Description
This is the small round ceiling box that finishes a pendant off at the top, sold here in polished nickel with a bright, mirror-like face that picks up whatever light is around it. It measures 11cm across, and the shallow body keeps it sitting close against the ceiling line rather than standing proud of it. Inside are the working parts you would want: a cable grip, an earth wire and a three pole terminal block.
It earns its place wherever a pendant, a rise-and-fall fitting or a length of bare flex needs a tidy point of arrival overhead. That takes in kitchens with a run of lights over an island, hallways, bedrooms and stairwells, and it suits anyone rehanging a shade and wanting the top of the drop to look considered rather than an afterthought. We keep this one on the shelf for exactly those jobs, where the existing plate has been painted over, has gone tired, or simply reads as the wrong colour against a new fitting. It belongs in dry rooms indoors, so keep it to living space rather than a shower area or an open porch.
The polished nickel reads slightly warmer than chrome, which is what makes it sit happily next to nickel switch plates and brushed metal handles. A soft dry cloth now and then is all the upkeep it asks for; polished faces mark easily, so leave cream cleaners and abrasive pads well away from it. Being non-electrical, it carries no lamp of its own, and that choice stays with the pendant it serves. It carries a one year warranty. The same box runs through a long list of finishes, among them matt black, matt white, polished chrome, satin nickel, antique brass, aged pewter and French gold, and the range also includes deeper lampholder rings if you need a little more depth at the holder.

Frequently Asked
What is supplied with it?
It comes complete with a cable grip, an earth wire and a three pole terminal block, so the working components are in the box with the housing.
What size is it?
The diameter is 110mm and the overall height is 25mm, so it stays shallow and close to the ceiling.
Does it take a lamp?
No. It is a non-electrical ceiling box, and the lamp and lampholder belong to the pendant or fitting it is used with.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
It is rated IP20, which means dry indoor rooms only. Keep it out of shower and bath zones and away from anywhere exposed to damp.
How should the polished nickel be cleaned?
Wipe it with a soft dry cloth. Polished metal shows scratches and swirls, so avoid abrasive pads, scouring creams and solvent sprays.
What other finishes are there?
We stock it in matt black, matt white, polished chrome, satin nickel, antique brass, antique copper, black chrome, aged pewter, antique silver, brass gold, copper and French gold.
