{"product_id":"ashcombe-travertine-drum-ceiling-light","title":"Ashcombe Travertine Drum Ceiling Light","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe hallway light you fit once and stop thinking about. The Ashcombe sits tight to the ceiling, so it clears a low landing or a narrow stairwell, and the travertine drum gives a soft pool of warm light rather than the flat glare of a downlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLight catches the open grain at the rim, which is what makes travertine glow rather than simply sit there. The diffuser is recessed inside the drum, so the bulb stays out of sight and there is no hot spot in your eyeline as you walk underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy it works in a period property\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarmth without the risk.\u003c\/strong\u003e Stone against oak or walnut reads as warm minimalism, not cold grey, and it holds its own next to lime plaster, panelled doors and deep skirting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuy it as a pair.\u003c\/strong\u003e Two down a hallway or a landing look deliberate.

The pitting, the banding and the exact tone shift from piece to piece, so yours will not be an exact match for the photographs. That is the material behaving as it should rather than a fault. The close-up in the gallery shows the open grain at full size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitting it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 12 cm across, the Ashcombe covers a standard ceiling rose and not much more, so it is worth checking the existing plate is roughly centred before your electrician arrives. Beyond that there is nothing to prepare. It goes onto the ceiling point with the gear held inside the drum, there is no rod and no cable to shorten, and the warm white LED bulb is in the box. Not dimmable, so a standard switch is all you need. This is a job for a qualified electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Travertina","offers":[{"title":"Oak","offer_id":54613134246229,"sku":"TRV-CL-ASH-OAK","price":69.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Walnut","offer_id":54613134278997,"sku":"TRV-CL-ASH-WAL","price":69.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1070\/8212\/1557\/files\/travertine-ceiling-light-drum-beige-01-1.webp?v=1786527477","url":"https:\/\/travertina.co.uk\/products\/ashcombe-travertine-drum-ceiling-light","provider":"Travertina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
