Description
The Astro 8 Light 80cm Crystal Chandelier is a hanging lamp built around crystal and metal, with 48 glass elements arranged across the body. It holds 8 x G9 lamps rated up to 40W each, though the lamps are not included. The fitting measures 80cm in diameter and 80cm in height. That 80cm height figure refers to the height of the chandelier body itself, taken from the top of the body down to its lowest point, and we note it here because other products in the Astro range carry the same name. The total drop from the ceiling is 160cm, and that drop is fixed at manufacture, so it cannot be shortened on site.
This crystal chandelier suits rooms with generous ceiling height, such as a hallway, a stairwell, a dining room or a sitting room, where the full 160cm drop can hang without obstruction. With 30 variants on the listing, it works across a wide span of interiors. The metal finish comes in Chrome or Gold 24K, and the glass is offered in Amber, Black, Blue, Cherry, Copper, Crystal, Gold, Lilac, Magenta, Multicoloured, Orange, Satin, Silver, White and Yellow, so you can match it to an existing scheme or let it lead one.
The frame is metal and the decorative work is crystal and glass, with a net weight of 13.0kg, so we recommend a secure fixing and, where needed, a qualified electrician for installation. To care for it, dust the glass elements gently with a soft dry cloth and avoid harsh chemicals on the finish. Colour temperature, brightness and dimming are all determined by the G9 lamps and switch you choose to fit. It sits within our wider Astro range.
