Nordic Ripple Ceiling Light

A ceiling light is looked at from directly beneath, which is the least flattering angle any object can be viewed from. Surface texture is the only thing that makes that view interesting, which is why the rippled face of this Cozy Crest fitting is doing more work than it appears to.

Each undulation across the surface catches light at a slightly different angle, so the fitting reads as a sculptural form rather than a lit disc. Looking up at it from a sofa, that difference is considerable - depth and shadow rather than a flat bright circle.

The output is softened by the same texture, spreading light across the whole face without a hotspot. Three colorways are offered - beige, green and blue - in warm white. It is a hardwired fitting - isolate the circuit at the breaker panel first, and have a qualified electrician confirm the fixture's rated voltage before wiring it in. Check that your ceiling type suits the fixing.
