Four E27 bulb holders sit within the shade, casting light downward through the fabric and upward through the open top of the frame. The antique brass finish has a warm, slightly aged tone that sits between polished brass and darker bronze, giving the metalwork a softer appearance under daylight and incandescent sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for dining tables, kitchen islands and entrance halls where a compact multi-light pendant provides both ambient and task lighting, the Akira works in rooms with ceiling heights from 2.4m upward. The 540mm minimum drop positions the shade approximately 1.7-1.9m above floor level in a standard-height room, while the 2000mm maximum drop allows the pendant to be lowered over a dining table or island worktop where the underside of the shade sits 700-900mm above the surface. The cable and suspension system is fully adjustable on installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black shade is made from a cotton-polyester fabric with a matt finish that hides the bulbs from direct view while diffusing light evenly downward. The interior is lined with frosted white backing fabric, which reflects some light back into the shade structure and increases overall output. The frame itself weighs 3kg when fitted with four standard E27 LED bulbs, giving the pendant a solid, grounded presence without requiring additional ceiling reinforcement beyond a standard UK ceiling rose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour Finish 1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAntique Brass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour Finish 2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrosted White\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShade Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e400mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e400mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinimum Drop\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e540mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Drop\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2000mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNumber Of Bulbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLamp Socket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE27\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDependent On Lamps Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVoltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e220-240V~50\/60Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimmable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes - Suitable Lamps \u0026amp; Dimmer Required\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 Year\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat bulbs does the Akira take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pendant takes four E27 (Edison screw) bulbs, sold separately. Most buyers pair this with 6-10W LED bulbs in 2700K-3000K warm white for dining and living spaces. The shade hides the bulb shapes from view, so both standard and decorative filament styles work equally well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Akira dimmable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, provided you use dimmable E27 bulbs and install a compatible dimmer switch on the lighting circuit. LED bulbs vary in dimmer compatibility, so check the bulb packaging confirms compatibility with leading-edge or trailing-edge dimmers depending on your installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat ceiling height is needed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 540mm minimum drop suits ceiling heights of 2.4m or above when used as ambient lighting. For dining tables or kitchen islands, the pendant is typically lowered to 700-900mm above the surface, which requires ceiling heights of 2.4m or higher. The maximum 2000mm drop accommodates double-height spaces or very tall rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the shade be cleaned?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black fabric shade attracts dust over time. Use a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner set to low power, or wipe gently with a dry microfibre cloth. Avoid water or fabric cleaners, which may leave marks or alter the shade colour.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mantra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51935425364235,"sku":"M0784AB\/BS","price":134.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/akira_M0784AB_BS_WB_big_6d433a33-12c4-431f-b10b-5287ad05baf2.jpg?v=1753433773","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/akira-4-light-pendant-light-antique-brass-black-shade","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
