Description
Three tiers of clear Asfour crystal on a polished chrome frame, arranged so the strands overlap and pass light between them. It measures 93cm across, which puts it firmly in large-piece territory, and the 29 candle lamps sit down among the crystal rather than in front of it, so what reaches the room is scattered rather than direct. Switched on, the whole body of it lights up; switched off, it still reads as a full, bright shape.
This is a fitting for rooms with height and floor space to give it: a long dining table, the turn of a staircase, a double-height hall, or a drawing room with a good deal of ceiling above the seating. We would hang it centrally and let it do the ambient work, with table lamps or wall lights handling anything closer. It will dim if you fit dimmable lamps and pair it with a suitable dimmer, which is worth doing over a dining table where you want the level to fall as the evening goes on.
The crystal is cut glass and the metalwork is polished to a mirror finish, so both reward the occasional going-over: with the supply off and the lamps cold, work around the tiers with a soft lint-free cloth, taking the drops a few at a time and leaving sprays and solvents well alone. It carries a one year warranty. The Alexandra range runs from compact ceiling fittings up through spiral pendants, and the sizes come in gold as well as polished chrome, so a hall and a landing can be kept in step. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
What lamps does it take, and how many?
It takes 29 E14 lamps, and we would choose an LED candle in the C35 shape so the bulb stays tucked into the crystal. The maximum is 20W per lamp.
How far down does it hang?
The drop runs from 1870mm at its shortest to 3870mm at its longest, so it suits tall rooms and stairwells as well as standard ceilings.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you fit dimmable lamps and use a compatible dimmer. No dimmer is supplied with the fitting.
What kind of crystal is used?
Asfour crystal in a clear finish, set against the polished chrome frame.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20 and belongs in dry rooms such as halls, dining rooms and stairwells.
How should the crystal be cleaned?
Switch off at the wall and let the lamps go cold, then wipe the drops with a dry, lint-free cloth, a small section at a time. Avoid glass sprays and any solvent.
