Hinkley Charlotte Ceiling Light

The Hinkley Charlotte Ceiling Light is a semi‑flush mount fixture from Hinkley’s Charlotte range. It presents an updated traditional silhouette where a textured off‑white fabric drum shade is captured within a prominent metal skeleton for a transitional character.

The design uses wide solid metal uprights and heavy trim rings to 'capture' the tapered shade, while small cast decorative knobs secure the domed bottom diffuser. The semi‑flush profile leaves a small gap to the ceiling, creating both downward illumination and a soft decorative glow above.

Construction combines a textured fabric shade with a dark metal frame and a domed white diffuser set inside a substantial lower trim ring. The contrasting light shade and darker metal skeleton provide a refined, tactile composition.

Light is delivered as softened ambient illumination: the domed diffuser conceals the lamp(s) to reduce glare and the woven shade diffuses light horizontally for a warm, balanced atmosphere. The semi‑flush mounting also allows a gentle ceiling wash in addition to downward light.

This is a hardwired indoor ceiling fixture rated IP20 for dry interior locations. Confirm lamp type, wattage and dimming compatibility on the product technical sheet when specifying. The fitting is supplied with a 2‑year manufacturer’s warranty.
