Topper is a low-profile flush mount from Besa Lighting built around a multi-layered glass: two ring sections fused onto a flat white glass, with polished opal glossy glass on top and a clear or transparent smoke blown glass ring below. Choose the clear ring for a bright, crystalline edge, or smoke for a softer, moodier band under the glossy opal. Topper 12 is sized for bedrooms, hallways, kitchens, home offices and bathrooms.

The integrated 16W LED is included: 1500 lumens at 3000K with CRI 85+, rated 30,000 hours, CL dimmable. At 12" diameter x 3" H it sits close to the ceiling. The glass sits on a white powder-coated aluminum fitter.

Best for

Bedrooms, hallways, kitchens, home offices, bathrooms and laundry rooms where a ceiling light should feel calm and well made. Choose the Topper 12 where the smaller Topper 8 would suit the room better. Related: Topper 8 (smaller), Tango 15 double glass flush mount, Tuca 15 foil ring flush mount.

Who this is not for

• Outdoor porches, soffits or covered patios: it is rated for damp interior locations only.
• Anyone who wants to choose their own bulbs: the LED is integrated.
• Ceilings that need a completely plain white fixture: the glass ring is meant to be seen.

Why we carry it

We have been curating design-led lighting since 2009, and Topper layers fused glass in a way most flush mounts never attempt, and it still sits close to the ceiling on a dimmable LED. Besa Lighting pairs American design with European glass artisanship: its shades are hand-blown by skilled artisans using techniques passed down for generations, then hand-inspected at Besa’s factory in Ohio for color, pattern, thickness and size before they ship.

Buy once: durability and care

Switch off and let it cool, then wipe the glass with a soft cloth lightly dampened with mild soapy water and dry it; avoid abrasive cleaners (our advice). The LED is integrated and rated for 30,000 hours. Installation by a licensed electrician is recommended.
