Description
A wide circular plate that takes a flush fitting and drops it down into the room on a power cable, so a light made to sit tight against the ceiling can hang lower instead. The disc measures 74cm across, broad enough to sit under a large flush fitting without looking undersized, and the cable pays out to a full 3m where a room has the height for it. It is not a light in its own right: the lamps, the shade and the switching all belong to the fitting it carries.
We reach for this in stairwell voids, galleried landings and double-height hallways, the places where a flush fitting would sit so far up that the room below stays gloomy. It suits anyone who has settled on a flush design they like and simply wants it brought down to a useful level, over a dining table or in the centre of a tall sitting room. The drop can be short as well as long, so the same plate earns its place in a room of ordinary height where only a modest lowering is wanted.
The finish is polished chrome with silver, a mirror-bright surface with real substance behind it. Fingermarks show on plating like this, so we keep a dry microfibre cloth to hand and buff rather than scrub; household sprays and creams will dull the shine over time. Turn the circuit off before cleaning around the fitting it holds. It carries a two year warranty. We stock the plate in smaller diameters in this same chrome, and at this size in a gold finish if the metalwork wants to read warmer. Lamps belong to the fitting you hang from it, not to the plate.

Frequently Asked
How much weight will it hold?
It is rated to a maximum load of 40kg, and that rating has been tested with fittings from the same maker rather than with lights in general.
How far down can the fitting hang?
The drop adjusts between 350mm at its shortest and 3000mm at its longest, so it covers everything from a small lowering to a full stairwell hang.
Does it come with a light or lamps?
No. The plate is non-electrical and supplies only the suspension and the power cable; the light source comes with the flush fitting you choose to hang beneath it.
What size is the plate itself?
It is 740mm in diameter, which is the largest chrome option in the range, and it weighs 7kg on its own.
How should the chrome be cleaned?
A dry microfibre cloth, buffed gently, is all it needs. Keep polishes, creams and solvent sprays away from the plating, and avoid anything abrasive on a mirror surface.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20 and belongs in dry rooms such as hallways, landings and living spaces.
