Description
The Phosra is a 40cm flush ceiling light built around a hemispherical diffuser made from white acid-etched blown glass, mounted on a white powder-coated metal base. The diffuser sits close to the ceiling with minimal projection, housing a single E27 bulb (sold separately) that casts light through the etched glass for even, diffused illumination across the room.
Designed for rooms with standard or low ceiling heights where a pendant would hang too far into the space, the Phosra suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and dining rooms of 12-18m² where overhead ambient light is needed without visual clutter. The 40cm diameter provides broad light coverage without overwhelming smaller rooms. The screw-fixing base mounts directly to a standard ceiling rose or junction box.
The acid-etched glass finish softens the light output and hides the bulb inside from view, preventing glare when the fitting is seen from below. The white powder-coated metal base matches the glass tone and resists chipping and discolouration over time. The IP20 rating limits the fitting to dry indoor locations — bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms — and excludes bathrooms and outdoor use.
The Phosra is dimmable when paired with a compatible E27 LED bulb and dimmer switch, allowing light levels to be adjusted from full output for cleaning and tasks to lower levels for evening relaxation. The 5-year warranty from Ideal Lux covers manufacturing defects in the glass diffuser and metal components.

Frequently Asked
What bulb does the Phosra take?
The fitting takes one standard E27 (Edison screw) bulb. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with a 10-12W LED bulb in 2700K-3000K warm white for living rooms and bedrooms, or 4000K neutral white for kitchens and hallways.
Is it suitable for low ceilings?
Yes. The flush mount design sits close to the ceiling with minimal projection, making it suitable for rooms with ceiling heights of 2.3m or lower where a pendant would intrude into headroom.
Can it be dimmed?
The fitting itself is dimmable. To achieve dimming you need to pair it with a dimmable E27 LED bulb and install a compatible LED dimmer switch on the wall circuit. Not all LED bulbs dim smoothly, so check bulb compatibility before purchasing.
What room size does the 40cm diameter suit?
A 40cm flush ceiling light typically provides adequate ambient light for rooms of 12-18m² (roughly 3.5m x 4m to 4m x 4.5m). Larger rooms may benefit from additional lighting or a larger diameter fitting.
