Minka Aire Traditional Gyro 42 in Dual-Head LED Ceiling Fan — Belcaro Walnut

The Minka Aire Traditional Gyro (model F502L-BCW) is one of the most distinctive ceiling fans ever engineered — a 42 in dual-headed AC-motor fan that pairs Victorian ornamental ironwork with two independently rotating fan heads for wide-angle, multi-directional airflow in a single fixture. The richly detailed Belcaro Walnut™ finish envelops the scrollwork frame, dual motor housings, and matching ABS blades in a deep, antiqued walnut tone, while a warm amber glass shade centers the composition with soft, dimmable light. Dry rated for indoor use. Bond Compatible and UL Listed.

Construction & Design

The Traditional Gyro’s dual-head configuration is built around an ornate scrollwork yoke that evokes the craftsmanship of Victorian-era ceiling fixtures — a design protected by U.S. Patents D567,350; 6,832,902; 7,183,680; and 7,229,255. Each of the two fan heads carries three ABS blades at a 20° pitch, rotating independently to distribute airflow across a wide horizontal arc. The Belcaro Walnut™ finish — a warm, hand-applied antiqued walnut tone — runs consistently across the frame, motor housings, blades, and glass shade for a unified, heirloom aesthetic. Two downrods are included: a 4.5 in and a 12 in (both 0.75 in diameter), offering flexibility for standard and higher ceilings. Sloped ceiling compatible.

Light Output & Performance

The integrated luminaire houses a single 4W T5 Mini Candelabra (E11) LED bulb — included — delivering 450 lumens at 3000K with a CRI of 85. Fully dimmable. The warm amber glass shade (7×7 in) diffuses the light with a soft, candlelit quality appropriate to the fan’s traditional aesthetic. Rated for 20,000 hours. This model is not light kit compatible — no additional light kit or adapter can be added.
