Golden Pendant Light

Start by counting the room and the height, then the style and the socket: a large gold ceiling light above a table, several light points in a large living room, a measured format in a bedroom. All the models in this selection are IP20, so they are intended for dry rooms, and covered by a two-year warranty.

Which gold ceiling light for a living room or a dining room?

In a living room or a dining room, a large gold ceiling light becomes the central light point. The 50 cm dome of the Solae lights a table, while the Selter models with 3, 6 or 7 lights in metal and gold steel suit large rooms, with an adjustable chain to set the height.

Designer gold ceiling light for a dining room

For a table of four to six people, a dome 50 cm in diameter covers the surface without crushing it. The black and gold Solae brings the light down to the right distance and adjusts up to 160 cm in height. For a longer table, prefer several points: the Selter 6 lights spreads the light instead of concentrating it. Other formats are gathered in the selection above a dining table.

Gold ceiling light to light a living room

In a large living room, a single point leaves dark areas. The Selter 7 lights in gold steel lights widely and its fine frame does not close the room. Complete it with a floor lamp or a wall light. The selection ceiling light for the living room gathers these formats, and the full lighting catalogue lets you compare with other families.

Gold ceiling light kitchen: how to light an island or a worktop?

Above a kitchen, a gold ceiling light brings the light down onto the worktop: the Lumea in glass, metal and copper suits kitchens and hallways, the Nest 3 lights black and gold or the Nando 1 dress an island. Two or three aligned points light a long length better than a single light.

A tube shape works better than a wide dome above a worktop: it takes little space and directs the light downwards. The Lumea mixes glass, metal and copper with an E14 socket, and accepts a dimmer. Other models to place in a kitchen are found in the kitchen ceiling light collection.

Kitchen island ceiling light: one or several light points?

Count one point every 60 to 80 cm approximately along an island, depending on the length and the installation height. The Nest 3 lights in metal and gold steel covers a medium surface, the Nando 1 suits an industrial look. The aligned versions are gathered in modern kitchen ceiling light.

Which gold ceiling light for a bedroom?

In a bedroom, a gold ceiling light of measured size and a soft light are better: the Lunéa ball in glass and metal comes in sizes from 20 to 70 cm, the Nova in metal and glass plays the star pattern for a child's bedroom. Warm white suits this room, especially with a dimmer.

Designer ceiling light bedroom

A large dome above the bed crushes the room. A ball of 20 to 40 cm is enough near a bedside table or in the centre of a small bedroom, while a diameter of 50 to 70 cm suits a large room. The Lunéa ball in variable format exists in these six sizes and also works as a bedroom ceiling light.

Gold and white ceiling light for a bedroom

Gold combined with white or beige warms the atmosphere less than black and gold, useful in a child's bedroom or an adult bedroom oriented towards rest. The Nova combines metal, glass and acrylic. The models with a light dominant are gathered in adult bedroom ceiling light.

Modern gold ceiling light, gold and black or gold brass: which style to choose?

The contemporary style comes first in the selection, followed by modern: gold combines with black for an industrial look, like the Nest 3 lights, or with white and beige for a softer atmosphere. Brass and gold steel give a warmer finish than a simply painted metal.

Gold brass or gold metal ceiling light: what differences?

A painted gold metal offers a regular shade and is cleaned with a soft dry cloth. Brass and gold steel have a deeper reflection, which moves with the light, as on the Blomma. In both cases, avoid abrasive products that scratch the finish.

Modern ceiling light and contemporary ceiling light

Contemporary favours simple volumes and clean lines, modern accepts more geometric shapes, industrial assumes blackened metal. A room with a strong style combines badly with a model that is too wise: compare the models in the modern ceiling light collection, the contemporary ceiling light options and, for a sharp contrast, the black and gold ceiling light.

Warm white or cool white: which light for a gold ceiling light?

Colour temperature changes the atmosphere, not the style: warm white, around 2700 to 3500 K, suits the living room, the bedroom and the dining room; cool white, from 4500 to 6500 K, lights a worktop or a hallway. Most of the models in the collection are LED.

LED ceiling light: what is the point?

An LED module heats little and consumes less than a halogen bulb for the same light. The powers of the models in the collection range from 4 to 40 W depending on the size of the light. The socket remains decisive, and an LED ceiling light can be a light with an integrated module or a model with a classic socket fitted with an LED bulb.

Gold ceiling light with dimmer

About a third of the models in the selection accept a dimmer, including the Noctem, the Lunéa and the Lumea. It is useful in a bedroom to lower the light in the evening, or above a table when moving from the meal to the conversation. Check that the bulb installed is indeed dimmable.

XXL ceiling light and high ceiling: how to set the height?

Under a high ceiling, an XXL ceiling light avoids the lost effect: you bring it down into the volume rather than sticking it to the ceiling. The chain or adjustable cable of the models in the collection allows this adjustment, and above a table the common use is to stay low enough to light without dazzling.

XXL ceiling light for a large volume

The Solae goes up to 160 cm in total height, the Noctem comes in sizes from 40 to 100 cm and the Erel in rattan and bamboo from 55 to 100 cm. These ranges leave room under a mezzanine or a ceiling of great height. Other volumes are found in the ceiling light.

At what height to hang a ceiling light above a table?

Common use places the bottom of the light at about 75 or 85 cm above the table surface, depending on the size of the guests and the shape of the model. A wide dome requires a little more height than a tube. For small volumes and tight budgets, see the cheap ceiling light.

Metal, glass or rattan: which material for a gold ceiling light?

Metal dominates the selection, often combined with steel or iron, and gold is present on all the models. Glass brings transparency and lets the bulb be seen; rattan and bamboo, like the Erel or the Yumi ceiling light, give a filtered and warmer light.

Gold glass ceiling light

Glass lets light through in all directions and highlights the bulb: choose a filament bulb then, more decorative. It is cleaned with a soft cloth and glass cleaner. The glass and gold metal models are gathered in the glass ceiling light.

Rattan and gold ceiling light

Rattan and bamboo filter the light and cast soft shadows, which suits a bedroom or a hallway. The gold metal of the structure often remains visible, as on the Yumi. Regular dusting is enough, without water on the fibres. Compare the structures in the gold metal ceiling light.

Can a gold ceiling light be installed in a bathroom or a hallway?

The ceiling lights in this collection are IP20: they are intended for dry rooms such as the living room, the bedroom, the kitchen or a hallway. For a bathroom, you need to look for an IP44 light and install it outside the splash zones; an IP20 model is not suitable for this use.

IP44 bathroom ceiling light: what to check

The protection index is read after IP: the first digit concerns solids, the second water. An IP44 resists splashes, which remains insufficient in a direct shower zone. Place the light set back, and keep the IP20 models of this selection for dry rooms.

Ceiling light for hallway and entrance

A hallway needs little light but well distributed: a tube shape or a small format works better than a large dome. The hallway and entrance ceiling light gathers these formats, and the rooms with a more elaborate design are found in the carefully designed ceiling lights.

Secure payment, tracked delivery, returns and Designix customer service: the product page indicates the diameter, the socket and the adjustable height before ordering. If you hesitate between two diameters for the same table, start with the larger one and check the available chain height: it is this criterion that decides between two close models.
