Eve 2 Light Semi-Flush Ceiling Light - Anthracite & Black

The Eve is a 2-light semi-flush ceiling light with a curved anthracite metal frame that rises from a 260mm ceiling plate and suspends a 450mm drum shade in black textured fabric. The frame's sweeping arm creates an asymmetric arc between ceiling and shade, positioning the fabric drum 435mm from the ceiling at its lowest point. Two E27 bulb holders sit inside the shade behind a frosted white diffuser that softens the light output.

Designed for rooms with ceiling heights from 2.4m upwards where a full pendant would hang too low, the semi-flush format keeps the shade close to the ceiling whilst the curved frame adds visual interest. The anthracite finish on the metal is a dark grey-black with a low-sheen powder coat that sits between matt black and gunmetal. The black shade fabric has a wrinkled texture that catches light differently across its surface, contrasting with the smooth metal curves.

The 450mm diameter suits dining tables up to 1.6m, bedroom seating areas, hallway ceiling positions above 2.5m square, and lounge corners where a ceiling light is needed but headroom is limited. The anthracite and black palette works in monochrome interiors, industrial schemes with exposed brick or steel, and as a darker accent in otherwise neutral rooms. Bulbs are sold separately — warm white E27 LEDs at 2700K-3000K provide ambient light, whilst higher colour temperatures shift the mood cooler.

What bulbs does the Eve take?

The fitting takes two E27 (Edison screw) bulbs, sold separately. Most users pair this with 6-10W warm white LED bulbs at 2700K-3000K for ambient lighting. The maximum wattage depends on the bulb type — LEDs typically max at 15W equivalent, whilst halogen and incandescent bulbs should not exceed 60W each.

Is it suitable for low ceilings?

Yes. The 435mm drop from ceiling to the base of the shade makes this a good choice for standard UK ceiling heights of 2.4m, where a full pendant would hang too low. The semi-flush format keeps the shade close to the ceiling whilst the curved arm adds sculptural detail.

Is the Eve dimmable?

Yes, if paired with dimmable E27 bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch. The fitting itself has no dimming restriction, so dimmer compatibility depends entirely on the bulb choice. Most LED bulbs marked as dimmable will work with leading-edge or trailing-edge dimmers.

What size room does the 450mm shade suit?

The 450mm diameter works well over dining tables up to 1.6m, in bedrooms up to 4m square, hallways with 2.5m square ceiling positions, and as a secondary light in lounges. In very large open-plan spaces it can feel undersized as the sole ceiling light.
