Flavia 6 Light Telescopic Chandelier Semi-Flush Ceiling Light - Polished Chrome

The Flavia is a 6-light telescopic chandelier built on six curved polished chrome arms radiating from a central hub, each arm terminating in a frosted and clear glass shade housing a G9 bulb fitting. The 73cm diameter gives the fitting presence without overwhelming typical 3-4m dining rooms, and the telescopic rod adjusts from 530mm to 780mm drop, allowing it to be installed as a semi-flush ceiling light in rooms with lower ceilings or as a suspended chandelier where ceiling height permits.

Designed for dining rooms, living rooms and entrance halls, the Flavia provides distributed light across a wide area rather than a single central pool. The six arms are positioned symmetrically around the hub, so the fitting casts light in all directions and minimises hard shadows. The frosted portion of each glass shade softens the direct output from the G9 bulb, while the clear upper section allows light to wash onto the ceiling. The telescopic rod means the same fitting can work in a 2.4m ceiling height room (set to minimum drop) or a double-height space (extended to maximum drop).

The polished chrome finish is a high-gloss reflective surface that picks up and reflects ambient light from windows and other sources, making the fitting act as a visual anchor even when switched off. The curved arms sweep outward and slightly upward from the central hub, giving the chandelier a dynamic rather than static profile when viewed from below. At 3.4kg the fitting requires a ceiling point rated for at least 5kg to account for the additional weight of six G9 bulbs and installation hardware.

What bulbs does the Flavia take?

The chandelier takes six G9 capsule bulbs (sold separately). Most users pair this with 4-5W LED G9 bulbs in warm white (2700-3000K) for dining and living spaces. The combined output from six bulbs provides adequate general lighting for rooms up to 20m².

Can it be used as a semi-flush ceiling light?

Yes. The telescopic rod adjusts from 530mm minimum drop to 780mm maximum drop. In rooms with 2.4m ceiling heights, setting the rod to minimum drop positions the chandelier approximately 1.9m above floor level, which functions as a semi-flush fitting while maintaining clearance above head height.

Is the Flavia dimmable?

The fitting itself is compatible with dimmer switches, but you must use dimmable G9 LED bulbs. Not all G9 LEDs are dimmable, so check bulb specifications before purchasing. Pairing with a trailing-edge LED dimmer typically gives the smoothest dimming performance.

What ceiling height is needed?

The fitting works in rooms with ceiling heights from 2.4m upward. In 2.4m rooms, set the rod to minimum drop. In rooms with 2.7m or higher ceilings, the rod can be extended to suspend the chandelier further from the ceiling, creating more vertical separation between the fitting and the room below.
