Matthews Fans Bianca Direcional 16in 3-Blade Ceiling Fan | Contemporary Rubi and Mahogany | Bedroom & Covered Patio | 16 x 16 in | Model BD-RED-WD

A 16-inch directional ceiling fan from Matthews Fans, finished in Rubi with solid mahogany wood blades, designed for small spaces and targeted airflow.

The Bianca Direcional is a unique and versatile ceiling fan whose head can be infinitely positioned in a 180-degree arc, forward and reverse, to direct airflow exactly where you need it. Its cast aluminum and steel construction, accented with genuine marbleized Bakelite knobs, gives it a contemporary transitional look that suits modern and classic interiors alike. The solid Brazilian mahogany blades add warmth and natural beauty. Handmade in Brazil and assembled in the USA, this fan is built to last with a limited lifetime warranty.

Best for

• Small bedrooms, home offices, or awkward spaces where a standard fan won't fit
• Positioning in front of HVAC ducts to improve heating, ventilation, or air conditioning efficiency
• Covered patios, porches, or sunrooms (damp-rated for outdoor use)
• Spaces needing directional airflow, such as over a desk or reading nook
• Contemporary transitional interiors that value handcrafted details

Not ideal for

• Coastal, saltwater, or chlorine environments (not recommended by manufacturer)
• Vaulted ceilings (flat ceiling canopy only)
• Large rooms over 12x12 ft where a larger fan is needed for effective air movement

How bright is it?

This fan does not include a light kit, so brightness is not applicable. It is designed for airflow, not illumination.

Light color and feel

No light source is included or available for this model, so there is no light color or feel to describe.

Sizing and fit

The fan measures 16 inches in width and 16 inches in height, with a 10-inch downrod that can be field-cut for custom lengths. It is designed for small spaces and low ceilings, but the flat canopy is not compatible with vaulted ceilings. The fan head can be angled 180 degrees to direct airflow in any direction.
