A 16-inch LED flush mount ceiling light from Besa Lighting's Silk collection, designed for hallways, bedrooms, and other spaces with low ceilings.
The Silk 16 combines a matte etched opal glass diffuser with a black upper cap, creating a soft, glowing contrast that feels both contemporary and inviting. The spun-metal look of the cap is actually part of the glass, giving it a seamless, artistic finish. This fixture is ideal for adding ambient light to rooms where ceiling height is limited.
Best for
- Hallways and corridors with 8-9 ft ceilings, providing even, glare-free illumination
- Bedrooms and living rooms as a primary ambient light source
- Entryways and foyers, mounted flush to the ceiling to maintain headroom
- Damp-rated locations such as covered porches or bathrooms with ventilation
- Contemporary and transitional interiors that value clean lines and soft light
Not ideal for
- Large open-plan spaces over 200 sq ft where higher lumen output is needed
- Areas requiring directional task lighting, such as kitchen counters or desks
- Outdoor locations exposed to direct rain or moisture (damp-rated only, not wet-rated)
How bright is it?
This fixture emits 2200 lumens, roughly equivalent to a 150W incandescent bulb. It provides ample ambient light for medium-sized rooms (up to 150 sq ft) and can serve as the primary light source in bedrooms and hallways.
Light color and feel
The integrated LED produces a warm 3000K white light, similar to traditional incandescent bulbs. With a CRI of 90+, colors appear vibrant and true, making it suitable for spaces with artwork or textiles. The fixture is dimmable, allowing you to adjust the mood from bright and functional to soft and cozy.
Sizing and fit
Measuring 16 inches in diameter and 4.75 inches in height, this flush mount fits snugly against the ceiling, making it perfect for rooms with 8-foot ceilings. It has a low profile, so it won't obstruct walkways or door swings.
