The height of your ceiling is one part of your room which is most likely beyond your control.   So as a result it will have an impact on the lighting you select.  It can be a little frustrating if you have fallen in love with a particular pendant light but we do have a little help at hand for you!

When selecting a light fitting, a rough guide would be that the bottom of the light fixture is approximately 7 feet (2.1m) from the floor.  But of course it is your home and if you feel comfortable going a little lower that is your choice.  Remember also  that with a lower ceiling, a light fitting may appear a little larger.

Many of our pendant lights and antique chandeliers can be adapted so that the hooked ceiling rose fits directly onto the light fixture rather than having an exposed length of cable.  For example, see the white glass Bestlite we currently have for sale.  This looks equally aesthetically pleasing as a pendant light with a colourful cable as it does with a flush fitting ceiling rose.   So take another look at our white glass lighting selection, or our Arts and Crafts Chandeliers and open up a whole new world of options for your home!

Our online shop also has a category devoted to flush fitting ceiling lights which you can see HERE.  So one way or another we will ensure that you can install fabulous antique lighting in any room.

Please feel free to enquire about any lights we have for sale online.  We offer this adaptation at no extra charge.   Email info@ashbylighting.co.uk or call 07525773614.
