Metal ceiling light: Vintage sturdiness in a chic and modern interior!
Want to add a touch of sturdiness and minimalism to your interior decor?
In our societies, lighting made of iron appeared with the industrial boom in the 19th century, thanks to its ability to be mass-produced. It should be noted that the lamp with incandescent light, with its famous revolutionary tungsten filament, helped a lot. Metal alloy fixtures were first used in factories to provide functional auxiliary lighting after dark, allowing workers to work longer. Then, they became popular in homes during the 20th century. The halogen bulb appeared in 1959, allowing for lighting that used more low energy than incandescent, making metal ceiling lights even more popular!
A ceiling light that is easy to integrate into your home
Metal ceiling lights easily adapt to all kinds of homes. They are available in our collection in a wide range of colors, made from various and diverse metals. Whether you simply want to treat yourself to the industrial style so dear to 1920s buildings, or simply create a nice retro touch in your living room, our ceiling fixtures made of alloys or metals come in a wide range!
Coming from the industrial style that made it largely known, the metallic style comes in thin and elegant structures, which have nothing to envy to wooden or glass ceiling lights! We can thank the highly talented designers in particular. Metal is present throughout our range of recessed models, whether they are wall lights, spotlights, or chandeliers.
Which metal to choose for my ceiling light?
Among the various choices that exist for making lamps, we find notably:
The nickel ceiling light: Whether for a minimalist chandelier with a sleek design, or for a more complex model, a nickel ceiling lamp pairs with a multitude of other materials. Known for its shiny finish and refined appearance, nickel fixtures offer a modern and minimalist look in a living room, or above a dining room. The ability of this chrome metal to reflect light helps to illuminate the space optimally. Also, if you like interior lighting whose composition varies between metal and wood or even metal and glass, then this gray metal matches very well with them.
The brass ceiling light: An alloy of copper and zinc, brass is a noble material that brings a contemporary style to your led fixtures. Resistant to corrosion and moisture, it can be recessed into the ceiling or walls of a bathroom. It can tend to patina over time, offering a vintage charm to your interior lighting.
Bronze ceiling lights: Bronze is a vintage style material, renowned for its luxurious and refined design. Its warm and sparkling color extends the general lighting of the room. We find them in the form of an adjustable spotlight for an industrial design, but also in the form of a bell to create a more retro and decorative atmosphere. Over the years, you have two choices for your bronze ceiling fixture: Either let the very characteristic little patina settle on this alloy, or maintain it so as to keep its shine.
Stainless steel ceiling lights: A mixture of iron, carbon, and chrome, stainless steel is a very contemporary material that is ultra-resistant to corrosion. We find it on all types of modern pendant lights, but also on any light source. Stainless steel can be tinted with a coating, so as to create a very elegant golden look for a Scandinavian design, up to an industrial-style matte black.
Aluminum ceiling lights: Aluminum is very popular in art deco. Its great malleability and lightness allow it to come in a great variety of shapes! Whether in a round or square shape in the classic style, or on industrial spotlights. We also offer aluminum fixtures in shapes such as mesh spotlights for auxiliary lighting, or in a linear shape like track lighting.
What color to choose for my metal ceiling light?
The colors of iron ceiling lights depend on the decorative style of your interior furniture, but also on your personal tastes. Neutral and chrome colors (gold, silver gray...) blend into any living room or dining room, and also allow you to harmonize with other wood, metal, but also other glass ceiling lights or rattan.
Bright colors, on the other hand, invite discussion, and enhance the atmosphere. This creates a warm atmosphere conducive to well-being. We can mention green, red, and pastel tones, which are more common.
