Nordica LED Flush Ceiling Light 3000K 12W - Black

The Nordica is a 310mm flush ceiling light with a black fabric drum shade surrounding an opal white glass diffuser, fitted with an integrated 12W LED emitting 1200 lumens at 3000K warm white. The 90mm height gives a low-profile presence that suits rooms with 2.3-2.4m ceiling heights where a pendant would sit too low.

Designed for bedrooms, hallways, landings and smaller living spaces, the Nordica provides diffused ambient light rather than directed task illumination. The black fabric shade contrasts with the white opal diffuser beneath, creating a defined edge that reads clearly against both white and coloured ceilings. The fabric weave is visible when viewed up close, giving the shade a textile quality rather than a flat painted appearance.

The flush mount backplate fixes directly to a standard UK ceiling rose or junction box, requiring no additional suspension hardware. The combined weight of 1.6kg includes the integrated LED driver housed within the backplate, so there is no separate transformer to mount in the ceiling void. The non-dimmable LED provides consistent light output without flicker, and the 3000K colour temperature sits in the warm-white band typically preferred for residential interiors over cooler 4000K daylight tones.

The black fabric shade and opal diffuser combine to spread light evenly across a room, and the 90mm height keeps the fitting tight to the ceiling where headroom is limited. The 3 year warranty covers the integrated LED, which runs at 12W to draw less power than an equivalent older bulb producing similar output. Because the driver sits inside the 310mm backplate, installation involves only the mains connection at the ceiling rose, with no separate transformer to find space for above the plasterboard.

Is the Nordica dimmable?

No. The integrated LED is non-dimmable and should be wired to a standard on/off switch only. Connecting it to a dimmer circuit may cause flickering or damage the LED driver.

What ceiling height does it suit?

The 90mm projection makes the Nordica suitable for rooms with ceiling heights from 2.3m upwards, including typical UK new-build bedrooms and hallways where a pendant would hang too low or obstruct movement.

Can the fabric shade be cleaned?

The black fabric shade can be dusted with a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner or wiped gently with a barely-damp microfibre cloth. Avoid soaking the fabric or using cleaning sprays, as these may mark the weave or alter the colour.

What light output does 1200 lumens provide?

1200 lumens is approximately equivalent to a 75-100W incandescent bulb, sufficient for general ambient lighting in a bedroom up to 12-15m² or a hallway. It is not bright enough for task-heavy spaces like kitchens or workshops.
