Cerne Large Kwfm19127 Semi Flush Mount by Visual Comfort & Co

The Cerne Large Semi Flush Mount by Kelly Wearstler for Visual Comfort Modern sits between the family's flat flush mounts and the hanging chandelier — it mounts close to the ceiling like a flush mount but projects 10.3 inches below it, giving the disc visible presence in the room without the installation of stems or pendants. The result is a ceiling fixture that reads as a deliberate design element rather than just a light source: a 16-inch brass circle that floats below the ceiling plane, glowing upward and downward from its two-sided acrylic lens.

At 16 inches wide and 10.3 inches tall, the Cerne Large Semi Flush is suited to rooms where the flush-mount version would look too flat and the chandelier would hang too low. For 8-foot ceilings where a chandelier's hanging height would compromise clearance, or for rooms where a pendant feel is wanted without the adjustment complexity of stems, the semi flush is the right choice. The 19W LED produces 465 lumens at 2700K, 90 CRI — warm ambient output for bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways. Universal 120V–277V. Available in Dark Bronze and Natural Brass.

Natural Brass is a living finish that develops patina over time. Dark Bronze is a stable, versatile finish that works well against light walls, dark walls, and natural materials alike. Both finishes are consistent with the Cerne flush mounts and pendant, allowing the semi flush to be used interchangeably within a Cerne-specified project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between the Cerne semi flush and the Cerne flush mount?
A: The semi flush projects 10.3 inches below the ceiling — it has visible body height and reads as a design object in the room. The flush mount (available in 5", 18", and 22" diameters) sits nearly flat against the ceiling, essentially disappearing architecturally. For rooms where the ceiling fixture is meant to be seen as part of the design, the semi flush is the better choice. For rooms where visual cleanliness is the priority, the flush mount is the better choice.

Q: Is 465 lumens enough for a bedroom?
A: For ambient mood lighting in a standard bedroom, yes. For rooms requiring bright task lighting, supplement with table lamps or wall sconces. The Cerne series is designed for warm, atmospheric illumination rather than high-brightness task environments.

Q: Can the Cerne semi flush be installed in a bathroom?
A: No — it is ETL Listed for dry locations only. For bathroom ceiling applications, a damp-rated fixture is required.
