Desperately trying to find light fixture like this one

7 years ago

Hi folks,

Don't mind me.

I'm trying to trying to replace a light fixture in my kitchen which is
flush with the ceiling. When this light fixture is on it exposes the
imperfections on the ceiling.

I went back to the electrical showroom where I bought my fixtures. I
asked them what kind of kitchen light I could use, to replace my current
one, so that the ceiling imperfections could not be seen.

Also, I wanted the new light fixture to be able to highlight my kitchen
island. This way, if I was cutting up onions or eating by the island I
would have adequate and nice lighting. The showroom person recommended
the fixture in the attached photo that looks like a drum (it's the
fixture with the letter "G" next to it or the the one that's on).

1) If the showroom guy is correct, this fixture will focus light in a downward fashion and not on the ceiling. Am I correct?

2) What is this type of light fixture called (if it has a name)? I would
like to see whether there are more online options for this type of
fixture.

3) If this fixture can use an LED bulb then it would really be cool!

4) I already have 5 recessed lights in the kitchen (over the oven, sink,
fridge, pantry entrance, and entrance to living room). But I thought it
would be great to have the option of turning off all the recessed
lights and just having the light over the kitchen island on. This way, I
can have a romantic dinner with a babe or just have lighting when
preparing to cook a meal.
