A Wide Five Light Semi-Flush for Kitchens and Dining Areas
The Searchlight Meliden 5 Light Semi-Flush is a chrome ceiling fitting that sits close to the ceiling while still giving the impact of a five light design, well suited to kitchens with standard ceiling heights. It measures 81cm long and 30cm wide, with a drop that adjusts between 55cm and 71cm, so it is worth checking these measurements against your ceiling space before ordering.
Materials and Finish
Made from mild steel, glass and stainless steel, finished in chrome.
How It Works
It takes five G9 bulbs (not supplied) and is dimmable with suitable dimmable bulbs. As a Class I fixture it needs to be earthed, so installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician. The drop is adjustable between 55cm and 71cm.
Where It Works Best
Suits kitchens and dining rooms, especially where ceiling height limits a full pendant drop. Its 81cm length also makes it a good fit above a kitchen island or a longer dining table, where a single central pendant would not spread the light as evenly.
