Deb:

I was keen on that same light fitting. Was told that it cannot be flush to ceiling or it would be a fire hazard. It is beautiful - perhaps in a little while you won't even notice the bit attached to the ceiling? Otherwise, as Julie suggested, you may prefer to exchange for something else.

So, what color did you eventually choose? I am really interested because the house we have just bought has similar color ceilings. I was also wondering about the color of the light fittings. I think that I will get some color changing LED light bulbs and have them installed all around the house. I like them more because you can both use them as a regular bulb or change the color to any you would like. It is also possible to control them using an app on my phone, making it so easy to control them. Now I think that it would be the most reasonable decision if I installed white bulb fittings so they look good with all the colors the bulb can make.

You may have to contact a lighting supplier directly and see what they can find in their trade books. I’d try Ivory & Dean or Fat Shack Vintage. Early Settler has some that are vaguely similar.
