Fabula Sycamore Semi Ceiliing 5 Light with 15cm Round Ribbed Glass Shade - Brass, Clear & Satin Black

Ribbed Texture With Visible Light

Five clear ribbed glass shades give this semi flush ceiling light a distinctive linear texture that catches the eye in a subtle way. The ribs run vertically down each shade, creating movement in the light as it passes through without the frosting or softening that opal glass provides. Brass and satin black metalwork anchor the design in a trim 15cm round frame that stays tight to the ceiling, leaving headroom in tight spaces.

Choosing Your Finish

Brushed brass offset with matte black creates the metal frame, a pairing that sits comfortably in both modern and period settings. The ribbed clear glass is where the real visual interest lies, adding texture and movement through a transparent material rather than through colour or pattern. If you prefer a different finish, similar ribbed designs are available in other metal combinations.

How It Works

Five E14 lamp holders spread across the fitting, each shining light through clear ribbed glass that maintains visibility while adding surface detail. Class II electrical standards apply, so you won't need earthing during installation. The IP44 protection rating means it handles spray water from any direction without degradation, making bathroom mounting straightforward and safe.

Where It Works Best

This fitting qualifies for bathroom zones 1 and 2 thanks to its IP44 rating. Our guide to bathroom lighting zones explains those regulations in detail. Beyond the bathroom, it works well wherever you want a ceiling fitting that feels designed and detailed without being visually heavy. The ribbed texture adds interest to dining rooms or bedrooms without making the fitting feel busy or fussy.

Design Details

Iron forms the structural frame, while ribbed clear glass provides both transparency and texture. The ribbing isn't painted or applied, it's integral to the glass shape, which means it will remain consistent and durable throughout the life of the fitting. The linear pattern complements the brass and black metalwork without competing with it for visual attention.

Questions People Ask

What's the difference between ribbed and plain clear glass?
Ribbed glass has vertical grooves that add visual texture and catch light as it moves across the surface. Plain clear glass is smooth and transparent without that added detail.

Does the ribbed texture make it less transparent?
No. The ribs are on the surface shape, not an obstruction. You can still see through the glass clearly, but the texture adds visual interest at ceiling level.

Is this as bright as plain clear glass?
Yes. Ribbed clear glass transmits just as much light as plain clear. The ribs just distribute it with more visual movement.
