lighting fixtures

Ceiling-mounted bulb holders

Lighting fixtures are devices that hold light sources and direct their illumination—lamps, chandeliers, sconces, recessed lights, and the like.

The term encompasses the complete assembly: housing, socket, wiring, and any decorative elements.

We're replacing all the lighting fixtures in the kitchen.

In real estate and interior design, fixtures are distinguished from portable lamps because they're permanently attached to the structure.
