What is flush light?
A flush mount light is a light fixture that directly installs to the ceiling and does not have visible center stems. This gives the illusion that the bulbs are attached to the ceiling. Since flush mounts seamlessly transition from the fixture to the ceiling, they are a popular choice in home and office spaces.
