Description
A white ring in the ceiling and very little else: that is the whole idea of this recessed base. The outer trim measures 16cm across, with the housing running deeper behind it, so the light sits back from the ceiling line rather than sitting proud of it. It is a non-electric base, which means it does the shaping and the light source is chosen to suit it. We stock it as the quiet option for ceilings that should not be noticed.
The wider size earns its place where a ceiling has some area to cover: an open plan kitchen, a wide hallway, a sitting room where a long run of tiny apertures would only look busy. It suits people building a lighting scheme rather than hanging a single fitting, and it pairs happily with pendants over an island or a table, since the ceiling work stays flat and the hanging piece keeps all the attention. White is the easy choice against emulsion, and it is the one we reach for most often.
The finish is white throughout, chosen to read as ceiling rather than hardware, and the whole piece is light enough in the hand to be easy to handle. Keep a soft cloth for the rim; if decorating dust or kitchen film has settled, a barely damp cloth and a dry one after will do, and leave abrasives and solvents well alone. It carries a three year warranty. The Sunset range runs across five sizes, so you can drop down to a smaller aperture over a worktop and keep the same look overhead, and this size is also offered in black and in gold if a white ring is not what the room wants. The light source is supplied separately.
