Description
Pink brings the colour here, in a ripple-textured wine shade held close under a polished chrome plate. The whole fitting sits tight to the ceiling and measures 15cm across, so it reads as a small point of colour overhead rather than something that fills the room. One E27 lamp sits inside, and the rippled surface breaks the light into soft bands as it spreads. It will dim, given a suitable lamp and a dimmer switch to match.
We reach for this where a pendant would hang too low: a hall with a shallow ceiling, the turn of a landing, a small bedroom, a cloakroom, or the patch of ceiling behind a door that swings wide. It suits anyone who wants a little colour overhead without giving up headroom, and it repeats neatly along a corridor at even spacing. Because the shade is compact and the light sits close to the ceiling, we would put a warm white LED capsule or a small round lamp in it and let the pink do the work; a clear filament lamp will also show through the ripple if you want the sparkle.
The metalwork is finished in bright polished chrome, and the shade tapers in the manner of a wine glass with the ripple running round it. A dry duster over the shade keeps it looking right; for fingermarks on the chrome, use a barely damp cloth and buff dry, with the circuit switched off and the lamp no longer hot. It belongs indoors, in dry rooms, on an ordinary household lighting circuit. It carries a one year warranty. The same wine shade is offered in amber on this polished chrome plate, and in opal on an antique gold one, so there is a quieter option in the range if pink is a step too far. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What size is this fitting?
It is 150mm in diameter and projects 90mm from the ceiling, so it stays well clear of head height in a hallway or small bedroom.
Which lamp does it take, and what is the maximum wattage?
It takes a single E27 lamp up to 20W. An LED is the sensible choice in a small shade like this, and lamps are supplied separately.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you fit a dimmable lamp and a dimmer switch compatible with it. No dimmer is supplied with the fitting.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, which makes it fine for halls, bedrooms and living rooms but not for bathroom zones or anywhere exposed to damp.
How should the pink shade be cleaned?
Dust it with a soft dry cloth once the lamp is cold. If the ripple has picked up marks, a barely damp cloth followed by a dry one is enough; skip sprays and abrasives.
How many colours does the shade have?
The shade itself is pink throughout, with the polished chrome appearing on the ceiling plate and fittings.
