Description
The Bolero 8 Light Square 70cm Drop is a bubble chandelier built around 42 glass bubbles, arranged as 6 at 15cm diameter, 24 at 10cm diameter and 12 at 6cm diameter. It takes 8 x GU10 lamps rated at 50W maximum, and lamps are not included, so you can choose your own. The footprint measures 80cm x 80cm and the drop is 70cm. That drop is the distance the fitting hangs below the ceiling, and it is fixed at manufacture, so it cannot be shortened on site. The word Square refers to the shape of the ceiling plate the fitting mounts on. The main materials are glass and metal, and the net weight is 19kg.
This is a ceiling fitting for indoor rooms, suited to spaces where you want a strong central point overhead. The 70cm drop makes it well matched to higher ceilings or open stairwells, and to dining rooms, entrance halls and large living areas where the fixed hang can sit clear of heads and furniture. With 8 lamps spread across the bubbles, it gives a generous spread of light for a sizeable room. Because it hangs a set distance, please check your ceiling height before ordering so the fitting sits where you want it.
The frame is metal in a Chrome finish, with glass bubbles forming the decorative elements. The listing offers 8 variants, with glass colours in Amber, Black, Clear, Copper, Gold Leaf, Red, Silver and White. To clean, wipe the glass and metal with a soft dry cloth, with the power off and the fitting cool. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could mark the finish. It forms part of our Bolero range.

Frequently Asked
What are the bubbles made from?
The bubbles are glass, and there are 42 of them in total: 6 at 15cm diameter, 24 at 10cm diameter and 12 at 6cm diameter. The frame is metal in a Chrome finish.
What lamps does this chandelier take, and are they included?
It takes 8 x GU10 lamps rated at 50W maximum. Lamps are not included, so you can fit your own to suit the room.
Can the 70cm drop be shortened?
No. The 70cm drop is fixed at manufacture and cannot be shortened on site, so please check your ceiling height before ordering.
What colour temperature and brightness does it give?
Both the colour temperature and the lumens are determined by the lamp you fit, because lamps are not included. Choosing your own GU10 lamps lets you set the warmth and output you prefer.
Is this chandelier dimmable?
Whether it dims depends on the lamp and the switch you fit, because lamps are not included. Pair dimmable GU10 lamps with a compatible dimmer switch if you want that control.
How do I clean the glass and metal?
Wait until the fitting is cool and switch off the power, then wipe the glass bubbles and metal frame with a soft dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners so the finish is not marked.
