Description
The Trosmessa is a flush LED ceiling light in a black finish. It has four curved arms that cross one another over a black ceiling plate. Each arm carries a white plastic shade along its face, so the light comes from the length of every curve rather than from a single point. The body is steel and plastic, and the fitting is 40cm long, 40cm wide and just 7.5cm high. The LEDs are integrated and draw 18.8W to give 560 lumens at 3000K, a warm light. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs indoors in dry rooms.
At only 7.5cm high it keeps close to the ceiling. That makes it a sensible choice for rooms with lower ceilings, where a pendant would hang in the way. We think it suits a living room, bedroom, hallway or study, anywhere dry that wants a main light with a sculptural shape. The black frame against the white shades gives a crisp monochrome look that sits well with pale or dark schemes. The crossing arms give it real presence without crowding a smaller room. The warm 3000K tone is easy on the eye in the evening, and with integrated LEDs there are no bulbs to buy.
The frame is steel and plastic in black, and the white plastic shades soften the LEDs. The light is not dimmable and has no switch of its own, so it runs from your ordinary wall switch, and a standard switch suits it better than a dimmer. It works on mains power at 220-240V, 50/60Hz, carries an energy class of E and weighs 0.767KG packed. As a light wired into the mains, it should be installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions come as a download. Before ordering, measure your ceiling so the 40cm by 40cm footprint sits where you want it.

Frequently Asked
Can I fit the Trosmessa in a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, which means it is for indoor, dry rooms only, so keep it to dry living spaces and away from bathrooms, damp areas and the outdoors.
Is this ceiling light dimmable?
No, it is not dimmable. It has no switch of its own and runs from a standard wall switch, so a dimmer is not the right control.
How bright is the light and what colour is it?
The integrated LEDs draw 18.8W and give 560 lumens at 3000K, a warm light that feels relaxed and homely in the evening.
How big is the Trosmessa?
It is 40cm long, 40cm wide and 7.5cm high, so it sits close to the ceiling and suits rooms where headroom matters.
Does it need bulbs?
No bulbs are needed. The LEDs are integrated into the light behind white plastic shades, so there is nothing extra to buy.
What finish and materials are used?
The body is steel and plastic in a black finish, and the shades are white plastic, which gives the light a crisp black and white look.
