Your Least Favorite Ceiling Light Just Got a Seriously Stylish Makeover

This fixture from Crate & Barrel might just be my favorite. The sage green trim and tassel embellishment give this silhouette a timeless, classy feel. The brass hardware and neutral shade only add to the high-end look and feel.

This option from Amazon is much easier on the wallet, while still easier on the eyes than the average boob light. It’s available in four different colorways, but I’m partial to the brown glass with the black base for a sophisticated glow. But the green glass, paired with the brushed gold base, could also add a fun pop of vintage-inspired color to your space.

Capiz shell shades are nothing new and are a favorite find of mine at thrift shops. However, I don’t know if I’ve ever seen them used in a hardwired fixture before. A modern take on the scallop trend with the classic Capiz shell style and boob light silhouette, PB Teen’s fun flush mount makes a strong, elegant statement overhead.

From design duo Chris and Julia Marcum comes this fabulous fixture. Milky glass provides that ideal, soft diffuse light the classic boob silhouette is known for, but the shape has a real modern twist, thanks to its more compact, tiered, and fluted design and edgy glossy black colorway.

Another personal favorite, the lovely Radner Flush Mount Light from Lulu & Georgia looks like jewelry for the ceiling. Available in two chic shades of glass, goldenrod and green, the soft organic folds in the shade mimic elegantly draped fabric.

On the whole, this flush mount may look more like a traditional boob light. But what most obviously sets it apart is the fun bronze star detail on the finial, which gives it a fun, vintage appeal.

This mid-century modern style fixture features a ribbed glass shade that has a romantic feel. Milky glass provides soft light diffusion, while the light green shade offers a pop of color (though it is also available in white and ivory shades, if you’re looking for something more neutral).

Another semi-flush mount style, this beauty from Rejuvenation is inspired by 1950s Swedish design. Its trendy fabric construction makes this model a great choice if you’re looking to incorporate more texture. Available in several different sizes and finishes, this light could hang in pretty much any style space.

The speckled glass shade on this semi-flush mount model resembles confetti glass. One reviewer says the mottling “creates the prettiest shadows on the ceiling.” I think it’d look especially lovely in an entryway.

The Sello Flush Mount from Lulu & Georgia has a truly elegant, organic feel to it. The natural linen shade and dark bronze finish set it apart from other models, and it’s sure to cast the most beautiful glow wherever you put it.
