Black Flush Mount Lighting

Why We Love Black Flush Mount Light

In the quest for neutrals, most people tend to stick to whites, khakis, and creams. But, there’s a whole world of neutral colors out there that are underappreciated. From deep, dark raven blacks to softer and warmer charcoal shades, there is quite a lot of variety in this forgotten shade. And, one of those is black. Black flush mount lighting takes advantage of this deep hue and showcases it in a versatile and compact form. The dark color adds a certain richness that just can’t be found in other neutrals and ensures that the fixture stands out. Black ceiling lights can be paired with black flush mount chandeliers for a compact but dramatic lighting look, or left to stand on their own. Bold and proud, these lights are available in numerous different styles and designs.

Where Black Flush Mount Ceiling Lights Work Best

Black flush mount lights, like any flush mounts, are unique in that they are installed directly against the ceiling. This type of mounting is ideal for low ceilings or small spaces because it ensures that the lights have a slim, unobtrusive profile. This mount also means that these lights are incredibly versatile. Black flush mount ceiling lights look stunning in hallways, butler’s pantries, and walk-in closets where they can add style to usually forgotten spaces. But, they also work well in much larger capacities. You can use these fixtures in kitchens, living rooms, and bedrooms for bright, overhead lighting that doesn’t distract from other decor. Because of their unique design and neutral color, these lights work essentially anywhere.

Favorite Black Flush Mount Lights Shapes & Styles

Just because they have a neutral tone and a small profile, doesn’t mean that black flush mount ceiling lights lack style. In fact, they’re overflowing with it. You’re likely most familiar with the traditional, round shape of flush mount lights, but contemporary designers have gone above and beyond that. For a chic, farmhouse style, we love the caged flush mount lighting options in this collection. The thick, black metal bands give the light a handmade look that fits seamlessly with many other styles. Alternatively, we also love the delicate look of black flush mount lights with star-like spindles or geometric clusters that give the light an artistic, abstract feel. Even the most simplistic pieces look effortlessly chic and stylish, which makes black flush mount lights a no brainer addition to your home.

How to Choose the Best Black Flush Mount Ceiling Lights

Black flush mount lights are the best light to make a stylistic impact in rooms with extremely low ceilings where traditionally bold lighting options like pendants or chandeliers won’t fit. But, they also serve a practical purpose. They’ll provide a nice bright light to open up your room without taking up any space and thanks to ambitious designs they add lovely visual appeal. Although they are available in halogen and fluorescent options, we love the LED wood flush mount lights for their long shine time and energy efficiency. The most important thing to consider with these lights though, is the size. You’ll want to measure your ceilings, and your floor to ceiling space to ensure that your black flush mount light is a good fit for you and your space.

Other Considerations

If you love the look of these flush mount lights, but want something that feels more dramatic, a black semi-flush mount ceiling light is a wonderful alternative. They feature the same rich hues as these lights, but hang from the ceiling at a slightly lower point. This makes them not as ideal for small spaces but much more visually stunning. And, on the complete opposite end of the spectrum, white flush-mount lights have all the versatility of black ones, but with a softer hue that feels more delicate.
