Description
The Roi is a compact flush wall and ceiling light, with a brass base and a ribbed glass shade, and it fixes to a ceiling or to a wall. The shade is a rounded dome of fumé glass, a smoked glass, with fine ribs running over its curve that catch the light and spread it in soft, glowing lines. It sits close against a slim base in polished brass, 2cm high and 10cm across, and the shade itself is 8.5cm tall and 12cm across, so it is a small, neat fitting rather than a large one. Inside is one G9 lamp holder, and the maker recommends a G9 LED lamp.
Because it fixes flush, with no stem, the Roi suits rooms where headroom is short: hallways, landings, box rooms and low-ceilinged bedrooms. Its small size makes it a good fit for tighter spaces too, such as a study, a reading corner or a walk-in wardrobe, and several fitted together along a corridor give an even rhythm of light. The ribbed glass and polished brass sit happily in a modern scheme and carry a clear Art Deco feel as well. It is rated IP20, so it is for dry rooms only.
The base is brass with a polished finish, and the shade is glass, a simple pairing that gives the fitting its warm, crisp look. It runs on 220-240V mains, and as a mains fitting it is for a qualified electrician to install. It carries a 3 year guarantee. For styling, we like the polished brass against deep painted walls, warm timber or aged brass door furniture, where the fluted fumé glass reads richest; a pair or a row of them looks more considered than a single one on its own.
