CLOSE TO THE CEILING LIGHT FIXTURES: FLUSH & SEMI-FLUSH MOUNT FIXTURES

Ceiling lights hang close to or against the ceiling. Because they provide
ambient lighting, they are central to the overall illumination of a room and set
the tone for distinguishing style. Available in both flush mounts that hug the
ceiling directly and semi-flush fixtures, that drop down slightly to cast light
across the ceiling, these valuable light fixtures hang 6” to 21” from the
ceiling to allow for installation on lower 8’ to 9’ ceilings with ample feet of
clearance below.



If you need a little inspiration to guide your browsing before you buy, we’ve
curated some of our favorite ideas and advice in our ceiling light fixtures
buying guide!



TYPES OF CEILING LIGHTS

 * Hanging: Light fixtures that hang from the ceiling, including chandeliers,
   pendants, and lanterns can be found in our Hanging Lights collection. Hanging
   lights create a striking visual effect and are often used for both decorative
   purposes, to make a bold design statement, and task lighting, to bring the
   light down to where you need it to complete specific tasks.  

 * Decorative: Just because flush and semi-flush fixtures sit closer to the
   ceiling does not mean they can’t have decorative purpose! Our selection of
   decorative ceiling light fixtures includes a wide variety of beautiful
   finishes, like metallic brass, nickel, chrome, antique gold, tin and copper
   as well as unique materials like driftwood, shells, chicken wire, bamboo, and
   painted colors.

 * Shaded: To diffuse light from the ceiling and create a soft ambiance, shaded
   fixtures are a popular choice. Shaded options include elegant drum shades,
   silky sheer to burlap solids, and fun geometric prints, with glass choices
   from recycled bottle to sparkling crystal, art glass and colored Murano
   glass.

 * Modern: Want to bring a contemporary edge to your lighting? Modern designs,
   include modern style elements like geometric open frames, mid-century globe
   shades, minimalist exposed bulbs, and more sleek fixtures with unexpected
   panache.

 * Rustic: If you are updating lighting in a modern farmhouse or cottage design,
   consider fixtures on the rustic-to-industrial style spectrum, including metal
   mesh, engine fans, smoke bell lanterns, rustic twigs and antlers, vintage
   schoolhouse lights and our famous glass Moravian stars!

 * Energy-Efficient LED: If an efficient-burning light with a long lifespan is
   top priority for you, consider choosing a fixture with built-in LEDs, or a
   fixture compatible with one of our LED bulbs. If the fixture includes LEDs
   already, that will be noted in the product name and description.
   


LIGHTS FOR ANY ROOM: WHERE TO REPLACE CEILING LIGHT FIXTURES FIRST

Because close-to-ceiling lights are found in so many spaces throughout the home,
it may be difficult to decide where to begin when replacing outdated or builder
fixtures. Here are a few room ideas to get you started:

 * Kitchen: Kitchen lighting design is all about balancing lighting layers,
   including ambient, task, and decorative lights. Flush or semi-flush fixtures
   can provide overhead illumination light over damp areas like a sink, where a
   hanging light might not be suitable, or add decorative appeal over a kitchen
   table.

 * Living Room: A ceiling light can make a stunning centerpiece in a living room
   design. Check out our living room lighting guide for more ideas and advice,
   such as choosing a fixture for a room with high ceilings, sloped ceiling
   compatibility, and where to place your light in relation to living room
   furniture.

 * Bedroom: There’s no better place to express your personal style than in your
   bedroom design. Whether your bedroom is a bright and airy space where you
   pass leisure time and recharge, or you prefer softer lighting to help you
   ease into the mornings and evenings, we recommend picking a bedroom light
   fixture that matches your energy and that you’ll love to look at each day.

 * Dining Room: As a formal space for entertaining guests, the dining room is a
   place to incorporate a statement piece. Consider an oversized light that will
   capture attention as soon as you walk in, or opt for a sleek black ceiling
   light that will add an air of sophistication to your entertaining space.

 * Home Office: With many of us working and studying from home more often these
   days, having adequate light can make a big difference in your level of focus,
   motivation, and productivity. Consider a stylish but serious finish, like
   glass or bronze, to give your study a professional feel.

 * Kids Room: In a kids room, playroom, or nursery, a whimsical light can add to
   the fun! Consider a colorful fixture, shape, or shade motif, including floral
   designs, stars, and nautical ceiling lights such as ship lights, shells, and
   starfish.

 * Hallway or Foyer: Overhead lighting in hallways and foyers is essential for
   safe movement throughout the home. For wider hallways and entryways, consider
   pairing a ceiling fixture with coordinating wall sconces to provide enough
   illumination.

When you are ready to replace an existing fixture, remember to consult a
licensed electrician for installation. They will be able to advise on how to
install it safely.

ceiling fans with lights!
