Description
The Lornette is a round flush ceiling light with a polished chrome steel body and a white painted glass diffuser, edged with a thin clear ring and a fine line around the glass. It measures 29cm across and just 8.5cm deep, so it sits close to the ceiling and keeps a room feeling open, which makes it a sensible choice where headroom is tight. It takes a single E27 bulb of up to 25W, and the bulb is not included, so you can choose the warmth of light that suits the room. Its IP20 rating settles where it belongs: indoors, in dry rooms.
We like it for hallways, landings, bedrooms, studies and living rooms, anywhere a low ceiling would make a pendant feel crowded. Painted white glass softens the bulb and spreads an even glow across the room rather than a hard point of glare, while the chrome rim gives a bright, clean edge that sits happily against white ceilings, cool greys and modern furniture. It is a straightforward swap for a tired old shade, and a good buy when you want one tidy, matching look across several rooms.
The body is steel with a polished chrome finish, and small clear clips around the rim hold the glass diffuser in place. There is no switch on the light itself, so it is switched at the wall, and it runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains. As a wired-in mains light, it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions are available to download. Packed, it weighs 0.834KG. Polished chrome shows fingerprints readily, so a soft dry cloth keeps the rim bright. Have an E27 bulb of no more than 25W ready for the day it is fitted.

It takes one E27 bulb with a maximum of 25W. The bulb is not included, so you can pick the colour of light you prefer.
How big is the light?
It is 29cm across and 8.5cm deep, so it sits close to the ceiling and suits rooms where headroom is limited.

No, there is no switch on the light itself. It is switched at the wall and runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains.
What materials are the body and shade?
