A 42-inch, three-blade ceiling fan from Matthews Fans, finished in matte black with barn wood tone solid wood blades, for medium-sized bedrooms, small home offices, and kitchens.
The Irene-3 is a study in contrast: rustic barn wood blades meet a sleek, globe-shaped matte black housing. The result is a fan that feels both warm and modern, a signature Matthews design that has been a favorite since the line's inception. The solid wood blades are CNC-cut and neatly joined, adding a handcrafted touch to any contemporary or transitional space.
Best for
- Medium-sized bedrooms, small home offices, or kitchens where a 42-inch blade span is ideal
- Covered patios, porches, or sunrooms, thanks to its damp-rated construction
- Homes with sloped ceilings up to 30 degrees (optional 60-degree kit available)
- Anyone who wants whisper-quiet operation with six speeds and a reversible motor for year-round comfort
- Design-conscious homeowners who want a statement piece that also cools
Not ideal for
- Bathrooms with direct water exposure - this fan is damp-rated, not wet-rated
- Large rooms over 200 sq ft where a 42-inch blade span may not move enough air
