Description
The Alderworth is a large three-light ceiling pendant hung with Tiffany-style leaded glass in warm amber, orange and red tones. The dragonfly motif runs across the glass, with beaded detail around the lower edge that catches the light. It measures 500mm in diameter and drops between 470mm and 1380mm, so the height can be set to suit the room. Three lamps sit within the fitting, giving a generous spread of warm light, and the metalwork is finished in satin black to frame the glowing glass above a table.
This pendant is at its best over a dining table or kitchen island, where its warm, fiery colours come alive when lit and throw pattern onto the ceiling and walls. It also works as a focal ceiling light in a living room with the height to carry it. The rich amber palette suits traditional and characterful interiors, and the adjustable drop means you can hang it low over a table or higher in a room with tall ceilings. As a ceiling light it gives both useful light and plenty of colour.
Each shade is made from individual pieces of coloured glass held with metal came, the traditional leaded method that gives the flame tones their depth. It takes three 60W E27 GLS bulbs, not included, and the fitting is LED-compatible for lower-energy lamps. Clean the glass with a soft, barely damp cloth and dry it soon after, working carefully around the leaded seams and beading; the black metal needs only a dry cloth. Rated IP20 for indoor use in dry rooms. The Alderworth pendant shares its dragonfly theme with the matching Alderworth floor lamp in the same range.

Frequently Asked
What is the shade made from?
The shades are Tiffany-style leaded glass, built from many pieces of coloured glass in amber, orange and red. The frame is metal in a satin black finish.
How do I clean it?
Wipe the glass with a soft, barely damp cloth and dry it soon after, taking care around the leaded seams and the beaded edge. A dry cloth is all the black metalwork needs. Switch off and let the bulbs cool first.
What size is this pendant and how low does it hang?
It is 500mm in diameter and hangs at an adjustable drop of 470mm to 1380mm. That lets you set it low over a dining table or higher in a room with tall ceilings.
How many bulbs does it need?
It takes three 60W E27 GLS bulbs, which are not included. The fitting is LED-compatible, so E27 LED bulbs can be used to save energy.
Where should I hang it?
It suits a dining table, kitchen island or living room ceiling and is rated IP20 for indoor use. Hanging it over a table shows the warm glass colours and the pattern they cast at their best.
