Kichler Franceasi 2 Light Flush Fitting - Olde Bronze

An Outdoor Flush Ceiling Light With Castle Window Detail

The Kichler Franceasi 2 Light Flush Fitting is an outdoor ceiling light that takes its pattern from the tracery of old castle windows. Curved metal bars frame panels of amber tinted, speckled glass, and a flat glass base lets the light fall straight down. When it is lit, the glass glows a warm honey colour and throws soft shadows across the walls around it.

Olde Bronze Finish

The frame is finished in olde bronze, a deep, dark brown with lighter highlights along the raised edges so it looks gently aged. It matches stone, brick and dark timber well, and the coloured glass adds warmth against it. If you like traditional exterior lighting with a little history behind it, this finish suits that look.

How It Works

• Two E27 lamp holders, suited to LED bulbs (bulbs not supplied)
• Works with a dimmer if you choose dimmable LED bulbs
• Mild steel frame with amber glass panels, fixed flat against the ceiling
• Rated IP44, so it is protected against splashing water for covered outdoor spaces
• Class I electrical fitting, which needs an earth connection

Where It Works Best

This is a ceiling fitting for places with a roof overhead, such as a porch, a covered entrance, a car port or a garden room veranda. It is 34.9cm wide and only 20.3cm tall, so it fits in where a hanging lantern would be too low. One is enough for a small porch, and a pair suits a longer covered walkway.

Questions People Ask

Can this light go outside?
Yes. It is rated IP44, which protects against splashing water, and it is designed for covered spots like porches and entrances rather than fully open ceilings.

How much space does it need?
It is 34.9cm across and 20.3cm tall, and it sits flat to the ceiling, so it suits lower porch ceilings where a pendant would be in the way.

Can it be dimmed?
Yes, if you fit dimmable E27 LED bulbs and use a compatible dimmer. Bulbs are not included.

Why is the light amber?
The glass panels are tinted amber on purpose. They warm the light and give the soft, aged glow that suits the castle window styling.
