class II light with 5" diameter base?

[brman]

Does anyone know of a cheap(ish) class 2 light fitting that has a base of around 5 to 6" diameter? Preferable nothing too ornate.

I've got a customer that has some rather fetching 60s round ceiling lights with a metal base.
not the same but a bit like these....

Of course there is no cpc in sight so i gently suggested they weren't a good idea but the lady is in her 80s and really doesn't want the hassle of getting her ceilings redecorated just to get rind of the unpainted bit when the old light is removed.

I thought I would have no problem finding a bathroom light that would suit but I'm struggling to find one that will not make the place look like a bathroom :lol:

a standard 16W 2D fitting no good ? They are definitely not too ornate lol

you are right, they are definitely not too ornate :lol:
I was thinking something that doesn't make it look like a store cupboard either........

It would still look a bit out of place in a 60s/70s decorated living room. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Sorry mate, completely misread. I thought it was for a bathroom. :rolleyes4:


Still, it would look better than a giant pub ashtray stuck to the ceiling.

This is a small selection of possibilities, there are loads out there if you look for flush ceiling lights, but do not choose modern ones for the decor.

Or try this site

Small plaster ceiling rose and a pendant is an option to cover up mess and keep class II.

2nd site looks promising although the prices are a bit steep....

Not a bad idea. I guess it would still need some painting but at least it would cover the swirls in the artex.
