Frequently Asked Questions
How much headroom does it need?
Very little, which is the point. It suits hallways, landings, low bedrooms and anywhere a hanging fixture would be knocked or would feel oppressive.
Is it bright enough for a hallway?
Comfortably. The stone glows across its whole surface and throws light down and outward, so a corridor lights evenly rather than in one bright patch.
Can I use it in a bedroom?
It is a good bedroom ceiling light precisely because the light is soft. Put it on a dimmer and it goes from getting dressed to winding down without changing fixtures.
Does it match the other Windsor pieces?
Yes. The same alabaster column and antique brass base runs through the Windsor table lamp, floor lamp and lantern, so a whole home can carry one idea.
How do I clean a ceiling fixture like this?
A dry soft cloth around the stone once a year from a step ladder. No sprays, no damp cloth, and the alabaster keeps its even tone.
