Paloma 3 Light Large Crystal Flush Ceiling Light - Satin Nickel

The Paloma is a 390mm flush crystal ceiling light built around a hemispherical bowl of faceted octagonal crystals, held within a satin nickel metal frame. Three E14 bulb fittings sit inside the bowl, casting light through the layered crystals to create refracted ambient illumination across the ceiling plane. The flush-mounted design keeps the overall projection to 170mm from ceiling to base, making it suited to rooms with ceiling heights below 2.4m where a drop pendant would hang too low.

Designed for hallways, bedrooms, dining rooms and low-ceiling living spaces, the Paloma combines decorative presence with functional ambient lighting. The satin nickel finish on the metal frame and ceiling plate provides a brushed metallic accent that works with contemporary and traditional interiors, while the clear crystals remain neutral enough to pair with warm or cool colour schemes. The 390mm diameter suits rooms between 10-16m², providing sufficient spread without overwhelming smaller spaces.

Each octagonal crystal is individually mounted to the metal framework, creating a structured grid pattern rather than a random cascade. The faceted cut on each crystal piece refracts light at multiple angles, adding visual interest when the fitting is lit and maintaining decorative presence when switched off. The combined weight of the crystals and metal frame totals 1.8kg, requiring secure fixing to a ceiling joist or reinforced plasterboard anchor. The fitting accepts dimmable E14 bulbs (sold separately), allowing output to be controlled via a compatible wall dimmer.

What bulbs does it take and are they included?

The Paloma takes three E14 small Edison screw bulbs up to 60W each. Bulbs are not included. Most users pair this with warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K-3000K for ambient bedroom or dining room lighting.

Is it dimmable?

Yes, provided you fit dimmable E14 bulbs and pair the fitting with a compatible dimmer switch. The metal and crystal components do not restrict dimming capability.

What ceiling height does it suit?

The 170mm projection makes the Paloma suited to rooms with ceiling heights below 2.4m, where a drop pendant would hang too low. It works in standard UK residential ceilings between 2.2-2.4m without feeling compressed.

How is the crystal cleaned?

Switch off the mains supply before cleaning. Use a dry microfibre cloth to wipe each crystal piece. For stubborn marks, a barely-damp cloth with distilled water is acceptable, but avoid soaking the crystals or allowing moisture into the electrical components behind the ceiling plate.
