Description

The Congress is a 203mm clear glass pendant from Hinkley with a polished chrome ceiling mount, adjustable rod stem, and a conical clear glass shade. The glass cone tapers to a narrow top where it meets the chrome mounting collar, with two visible thumbscrews either side that reference industrial factory lighting from the early 20th century. A single E27 bulb sits inside the glass shade, visible through the clear glass when lit.

Designed for installation over kitchen worktops, dining tables, breakfast bars and side tables where focused downward light is needed, the Congress works as both functional task lighting and a decorative accent. The rod is height-adjustable on installation between a 253mm minimum drop and a 902mm maximum drop, allowing the pendant to be set 600-800mm above a work surface or dining table depending on ceiling height. The polished chrome finish pairs with stainless steel appliances, brushed nickel hardware and cool-toned interiors.

The clear glass shade allows full light transmission without diffusion, making it well-suited to LED filament bulbs where the visible filament becomes part of the aesthetic. The 60W maximum rating accepts standard E27 LED, halogen or traditional incandescent bulbs (sold separately), giving flexibility to choose colour temperature and brightness. The combination of polished chrome metalwork and clear glass gives the Congress a cleaner, more refined appearance than typical industrial reproductions in matt black or aged brass finishes.

Frequently Asked

What bulb does the Congress take?

The pendant accepts any standard E27 (Edison screw) bulb up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with a warm-white LED filament bulb between 4-8W and 2700K for a visible filament effect through the clear glass.

Can the drop height be adjusted after installation?

The rod length is adjustable on installation between 253mm minimum and 902mm maximum drop. Once installed and the ceiling canopy fitted, the drop cannot be adjusted without removing the canopy and re-threading the rod.

What ceiling height is needed?

For a kitchen worktop or dining table, the pendant typically sits 600-800mm above the surface. With the 253mm minimum drop, this works in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above. Higher ceilings can use the extended 902mm drop for a longer visual line.

Is the chrome finish lacquered?

Hinkley's polished chrome finish is typically lacquered to resist tarnishing and fingerprints. Wipe with a dry microfibre cloth to maintain the reflective surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the lacquer.
