Ava 5 Light Crystal Floor Lamp - Polished Chrome

The Ava is a 310mm crystal globe floor lamp mounted on a 1.6m polished chrome column with a weighted tulip-style base. The globe is constructed from interlocking polished chrome rings strung with hundreds of octagon-cut crystal beads, creating a spherical shade that refracts light from five G9 fittings inside. The crystals scatter the light source across walls and ceilings, producing a diffused ambient glow with points of refracted brilliance.

Designed for living rooms, hallway corners and bedroom reading positions where ceiling height permits, the Ava provides both overhead ambient light and decorative presence. The 1.6m total height positions the globe at approximately 1.5m above floor level, clear of typical seating but within the visual field when standing. The chrome column tapers from a 200mm diameter base to a narrower neck supporting the globe, giving stability on both carpet and hard floors despite the 6.5kg weight being concentrated in the top half of the fitting.

The octagon crystal beads are individually strung on the chrome framework, meaning some manual adjustment may be needed on unpacking to distribute them evenly across the sphere. The polished chrome finish on both the column and the rings gives high reflectivity, amplifying the refractive effects of the crystals when the lamp is lit. The five G9 fittings accept bulbs up to 33W each (sold separately), and the fitting is dimmable when paired with compatible G9 LED bulbs and a trailing-edge dimmer.

What bulbs does the Ava take?

The lamp takes five G9 capsule bulbs up to 33W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white G9 LED bulbs between 3-5W and 2700K-3000K for ambient lighting. The G9 fitting is the small bi-pin capsule type, not the standard Edison screw.

Is it dimmable?

Yes, when paired with dimmable G9 LED bulbs and a compatible trailing-edge dimmer switch. Not all G9 LEDs are dimmable, so check the bulb specification before purchasing if dimming is required.

How is the crystal globe assembled?

The globe arrives fully assembled with the octagon crystal beads strung on the chrome rings. Some manual adjustment may be needed to distribute the beads evenly across the sphere after unpacking, as they can shift during transit.

What room height is needed?

The 1.6m total height positions the 310mm globe at approximately 1.5m above floor level. Standard UK ceiling heights of 2.4m or above work well, leaving clearance between the globe and ceiling for the light to project upwards and outwards.
