The Akira is a batten fix ceiling light a 150mm shade,220mm high, that mounts straight onto a standard batten holder. It is the tidy replacement for abare ceiling fitting, with no rewiring.

Three combinations, not four. The listing name mentionsWhite/Chrome. Only Black/Oak, White/Copper and White/Oak are stocked.

It also takes a B22 bayonet globe, not an E27 screw. Most fittings in this range areE27, so check what you have before assuming a spare will fit. No globe is supplied.

Batten fix means a swap, not a rewire

It attaches to the batten holder most Australian ceilings already have. That makes it a genuinelike-for-like upgrade for a plain bedroom or hallway fitting, and a sensible option in a rental whererewiring is out of the question.

Timber and metal, in three pairings

Black with oak, white with copper, white with oak. The timber tone warms what is otherwise a plainceiling fitting, which is the reason to choose it over a bare batten holder or a plain oyster.
