The Currey & Co Colchester Raffia Flush Mount, available at LOOMLAN with free shipping, combines handwoven natural raffia with a sugar white wrought iron frame to create a 16-inch diameter ceiling mount light fixture that works beautifully in hallways, bedrooms, and powder rooms. The woven raffia allows light to filter through, creating a warm glow that complements both modern and farmhouse interiors.

Full Specifications

What is a flush mount ceiling light?

A flush mount ceiling light attaches directly to the ceiling with minimal or no gap, making it ideal for rooms with low ceilings or where overhead clearance is a concern. Unlike semi-flush mount lights, which hang slightly below the ceiling on a short stem, flush mount light fixtures sit tight against the mounting surface and typically measure 8 to 16 inches in diameter.

What You Get With the Currey & Co Colchester Raffia Flush Mount

1. Handwoven Natural Raffia -- densely woven around the circumference, allowing soft light to seep through the texture for a warm, layered glow.
2. Sugar White Wrought Iron Frame -- a crisp finish that contrasts beautifully with the natural raffia and complements both neutral and colorful walls.
3. Integrated Acrylic Diffuser -- distributes LED light evenly while directing additional illumination onto the ceiling for ambient brightness.
4. LED Engine Included -- energy-efficient 120v integrated LED eliminates the need for separate bulbs and reduces long-term operating costs.
5. Low-Ceiling Certified -- 7.5-inch height and flush mounting make it suitable for 8-foot ceilings in bedrooms, hallways, and entryways.

Where does a natural raffia flush mount work best?

This fixture thrives in bedrooms, powder rooms, and hallways where you need a flush mount ceiling light that adds texture without competing for vertical space. Pair it with other woven or natural-fiber pieces from LOOMLAN's lighting collection to reinforce organic, coastal, or bohemian interiors, or use it as a warm counterpoint to sleek modern lighting fixtures.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between flush mount and semi flush mount ceiling lights?

Flush mount ceiling lights attach directly to the ceiling with no visible gap, while semi-flush mounts hang on a short stem or rod, creating a small gap of 4 to 12 inches.

What size flush mount ceiling light do I need for a bedroom?

For a standard bedroom, a flush mount with a diameter of 14 to 18 inches provides adequate light and visual balance; the Colchester's 16-inch diameter fits most bedrooms comfortably.

What size flush mount light fixture is right for a hallway?

Hallways typically require fixtures with a diameter of 10 to 16 inches, spaced every 8 to 10 feet for even illumination; this 16-inch fixture works well as a single statement piece or in a series for longer corridors.

Can I use a flush mount light on an 8 foot ceiling?

Yes, flush mount ceiling lights are specifically designed for 8-foot ceilings because they mount directly to the surface with minimal vertical projection, preserving headroom.

Does the Colchester require assembly or professional installation?

The fixture ships with a 1-foot cord for hardwired installation; a licensed electrician is recommended to ensure safe mounting and proper electrical connections.

How do I clean natural raffia?

Dust the raffia with a soft, dry cloth or use a low-suction vacuum attachment; avoid water or chemical cleaners, which can discolor or damage the natural fiber.
