Armstrong - Satin Silver 6 Light Semi Flush

The Armstrong has an open metal construction finished in satin silver, with six exposed lampholders positioned around the central ceiling fitting. There are no shades or diffusers, so the chosen bulbs remain fully visible and contribute directly to the finished look. The arrangement creates a wide, contemporary silhouette measuring 64 cm in diameter while projecting only 20 cm down from the ceiling. Its simple geometric form works particularly well in modern and industrial-inspired rooms, while the satin silver finish provides a cooler alternative to brass or black versions of this style.

Six E27 lampholders provide light from multiple positions across the fitting, helping distribute illumination over a wider area than a single-lamp ceiling light. The bulbs are exposed rather than enclosed behind shades, making bulb choice an important part of both the light output and appearance.

The fitting is suitable for E27 LED bulbs up to 10W per bulb, and the bulbs are not included. It is compatible with dimmable E27 bulbs when paired with a suitable dimmer switch. The bulbs and dimmer switch need to be matched to each other for dimming to work properly.

Operation is mains-controlled from the wall switch. With an IP20 rating, the Armstrong is intended for normal dry indoor areas rather than bathrooms or outdoor locations.
