Basmorne Square Flush Ceiling Light - Black & Silver

Description

DescriptionThe Basmorne is a square flush ceiling light, a compact aluminium box that sits directly against the ceiling and sends its light straight downward. The outer body is black and the inside is silver, so the opening shows as a bright square frame within the dark shell. It is 10cm long, 10cm wide and 12cm tall, a neat block rather than a wide shade. It takes a single GU10 bulb, which is not included, so the colour of the light and its brightness are yours to choose. The IP20 rating settles where it can go: indoors, in dry rooms, away from steam and splashing water.
Because it mounts on the surface rather than into a hole, it suits ceilings where a recessed downlight is not wanted or not possible. One on its own gives a focused pool of light over a reading chair, a desk or a side table, while a row of them along a hallway or kitchen ceiling makes a clean, graphic line. The black and silver finish sits comfortably with modern interiors, from monochrome schemes to warm timber and exposed concrete. Living rooms, hallways, kitchens, bedrooms and studies all suit it, as long as the room stays dry.
The body is aluminium, a metal that is light and rigid and resists corrosion, and the whole fitting weighs 0.54KG. It runs on mains power at 220-240V, 50/60Hz and has no switch of its own, so you control it from the wall switch like any other ceiling light. As a wired-in mains light, it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions come as a PDF download. Inside the box, the silver reflector throws the light out through the square opening. One practical note: order a GU10 bulb alongside it, choosing a colour temperature that suits the room, so the light is ready from the first day.
