Description
Zila is a modern ceiling light built around a slim cylinder shade on an adjustable joint, so you can point its light exactly where you want it. The cylindrical shade is 5cm across and 12cm long, held out from a round mounting plate on a short arm, and it pivots to pick out a corner, a picture or a favourite chair. It takes one GU10 lamp, which is not included, so you choose the bulb and the colour of its light yourself. The whole fitting is matt white over an iron structure, a clean, quiet finish that sits back against a pale ceiling.
Because the shade angles, Zila gives directed light rather than a general glow, which makes it a useful accent and task light. We like it in a hallway turned along a row of pictures, above a desk in a study, over a reading chair in a living room, or aimed at a bookcase or alcove in a bedroom. A few spaced along a ceiling make simple, modern accent lighting. It is rated IP20, so it is for dry rooms only. It works from an ordinary on-off switch on a 220-240V mains supply, and as a mains fitting it is for a qualified electrician to install.
Its structure is iron, finished all over in matt white, from the round plate to the end of the shade, so there is nothing to compete with the clean line of the cylinder. It carries a 2 year guarantee. On the styling side, it suits plain modern rooms with white or pale ceilings, where the plate all but disappears and the angled shade becomes the one detail you notice. Choose a warm white GU10 lamp for living spaces and a cooler one over a desk, and set the angle once the furniture is in place.

Frequently Asked
Does the Zila ceiling light come with a bulb?
No. It takes one GU10 lamp, and the lamp is not included, so you can choose the brightness and colour of light that suits your room.
Can I angle the shade?
Yes. The cylinder shade sits on an adjustable joint, so you can tilt it to aim the light at a picture, a desk, a chair or a corner of the room.
How big is the shade?
The cylindrical shade is 5cm across and 12cm long, which keeps the fitting small and neat on the ceiling.
Can I use it in a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, so it is for dry rooms only, such as a hallway, bedroom, study or living room.
Can it be dimmed?
It is listed as an on-off switched fitting, so it is made to work from an ordinary light switch rather than a dimmer.
What is it made of?
The structure is iron, finished all over in matt white, from the round mounting plate to the end of the cylinder shade.
