This travertine flush ceiling light plays on lightness: a ring of real travertine seems to float around a pure white diffuser, carried by a canopy of solid wood in a walnut-coloured finish. It comes in two sizes, fits to the ceiling or to a wall, and gives a warm light. It is a substantial piece, and its weight is given below so that you and your electrician can plan the fixing.

A travertine flush ceiling light with a floating ring

The first thing you notice about this travertine flush ceiling light is its ring. The band of real raw travertine, with its porous, pale surface, appears to hover around the central diffuser, and the stone keeps its natural grain and texture. It contrasts with the pure white of the premium acrylic diffuser, which lets the light through evenly. Above both, the canopy and the fixing of this travertine flush ceiling light are solid wood in a walnut-coloured finish, and they bring the warmth that mineral fittings often lack. Three materials, stone, acrylic and wood, make one sculptural composition that works as well switched off as switched on. Unlit, this travertine flush ceiling light reads as a decorative object set against the ceiling; lit, it draws a soft halo that rounds off the corners of the room. This travertine flush ceiling light can serve as a ceiling light or as a wall light, with integrated electrical wiring in both cases, so the lines stay clean. In a lounge, a main bedroom or a large hallway, it becomes a discreet focal point that suits light timber furniture, a linen sofa or walls in neutral shades. Its pared-back look suits contemporary interiors that favour natural materials and simple volumes, with no superfluous ornament but a real personality.

LED, weight and certification of the travertine flush ceiling light

This travertine flush ceiling light carries a high-precision integrated LED module, so there is no bulb to choose and no bulb holder to maintain. Its stated life is about 50,000 hours, and the LED is not replaceable, which makes that figure central to the purchase. The colour temperature is a warm white of 3000K, close to the light of classic bulbs, and it flatters the pale tones of the stone and the colour of the wood. This travertine flush ceiling light carries a bathroom zone rating (certified for humid zones), which allows it in a bathroom or on a covered outdoor space, and its overall compliance lists North American, Australian, European and Middle Eastern standards. Two sizes are offered. The smaller measures 30 cm in diameter and 18 cm high, and weighs 3.5 kg; the larger is 40 cm in diameter, the same 18 cm high, and weighs 5.2 kg. Under a 2.40 m ceiling the height of this travertine flush ceiling light leaves 2.22 m below it, which clears the usual 2.10 m. The weight comes from the solid materials, and it means a secure fixing is needed in the ceiling or the wall, not a light plasterboard anchor. That is the price of real material presence. For a fitting of this kind these facts change how you buy: this travertine flush ceiling light is made to last without maintenance, rather than to have its light source replaced from time to time. The white finish of the diffuser aims at an even light with no visible hot spot.

Small or large: choosing a travertine flush ceiling light

The choice between the two sizes depends mainly on the volume of the room and on the place you wish to give the fitting. The 30 cm travertine flush ceiling light suits a bedroom, a wide corridor or a bathroom, where it keeps a discreet manner and its sculptural character. The 40 cm size is better for a lounge, an open kitchen or an entrance, where it can hold the ceiling as a true centrepiece. In both cases the 18 cm height is identical, which gives a matching profile if you use the two sizes in one home. In a room of medium size the small travertine flush ceiling light leaves more breathing space around it, while the large one structures the room and draws the eye upward. On a wall, think about the height and the clear space around it: a fitting of this weight likes a bare wall. In terms of decoration, it goes well with a wooden table, linen curtains or a palette of whites and sand tones. Since the LED is integrated and cannot be replaced, you never handle the diffuser: once the travertine flush ceiling light is up, you simply switch it on and enjoy a steady warm white.

This travertine flush ceiling light mixes floating real stone, pure white acrylic and solid wood in a walnut-coloured finish for a warm, long-lasting light. Choose the size that suits your room and give it a central piece from Alborra.
