Elstead Holborn 2 Light Flush - Polished Chrome

A neat glazed lantern for the porch ceiling

The Holborn flush light keeps a low, square profile against the ceiling, letting slatted chrome vents and bevelled glass panels do the visual work instead of a long drop or shade. It suits porches and covered entrances where a hanging pendant would sit too low.

Polished Chrome finish

This version is finished in bright Polished Chrome, giving the fitting a cooler, more reflective look than the brass and bronze finishes elsewhere in the Holborn range. The chrome picks up light along the slatted top bars, the corner posts and the ball feet, while four clear bevelled glass panels form the sides.

How It Works

Two E27 lamp holders sit inside the glass box, spaced so light reaches evenly through all four panels rather than in one direction. The fitting takes standard E27 bulbs, which are not included, so you can choose the colour temperature and brightness you want. Fit dimmable bulbs and it will work with a dimmer switch.

Where It Works Best

Holborn is designed for outdoor ceilings such as porches, covered terraces and sheltered entrances, and its IP44 rating means it copes with splashing rain as long as it isn't left fully exposed to the weather. The polished chrome finish sits well against paler stone, render or painted brick, where it stays visible rather than disappearing into a darker background.

Elstead's Approach to Porch Lighting

Elstead Lighting has built a wide range of traditional lantern and porch light shapes over the years, and the Holborn is one of its simpler square designs, aimed at spaces that call for something neat rather than ornate. The range also includes matching wall lanterns, if you're looking to carry the same design across a porch.
