Description
The Coniston is a 60cm-diameter crystal chandelier built in an elongated acorn profile, tapering from a polished chrome crown through layered rows of clear cut crystal strands to a single crystal drop at the base. Twenty E14 bulb positions sit within the crystal framework, each bulb holder concealed behind the crystal rows to produce light that refracts through the cut facets rather than direct glare.
Designed for entrance halls, stairwells and double-height dining rooms with ceiling heights of 3.5m or above, the Coniston's adjustable 1420-2880mm drop allows the chandelier to be set at the correct proportion for the ceiling height and room volume. The 600mm diameter suits spaces where a traditional chandelier presence is needed without dominating smaller floor plans. At 48.3kg the fitting requires ceiling joists capable of supporting the weight, and installation typically involves a secure ceiling plate and structural fixing into timber or concrete.
The polished chrome frame and clear crystal combination produces high light reflection across the full height of the piece, which reaches approximately 142cm at minimum drop. Each of the twenty E14 positions accepts candle-style LED, halogen or filament bulbs up to 20W (sold separately), giving control over colour temperature and whether the bulbs themselves are visible through the crystal. Dimmable bulbs paired with a trailing-edge dimmer allow the intensity to be adjusted for daytime ambient light or evening centrepiece illumination.
The acorn taper concentrates the crystal density towards the base of the fitting, creating a weighted visual bottom that anchors the design in taller rooms. Each crystal is individually hung on polished chrome pins, and the layered construction means light passes through multiple rows of faceted glass before reaching the eye, softening the direct output from the bulbs and producing the characteristic chandelier sparkle across walls and ceilings.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does the Coniston take?
The chandelier takes twenty E14 (small Edison screw) candle-style bulbs up to 20W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users choose warm-white LED candle bulbs between 3-6W and 2700K for a traditional chandelier look, or clear filament LED for visible bulb glow through the crystal.
Is it dimmable?
Yes, when paired with dimmable E14 bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch. A trailing-edge dimmer is recommended for LED bulbs to avoid flicker. The dimmer is not included and must be installed separately.
What ceiling height is needed?
The chandelier is designed for high-ceilinged rooms. At minimum drop (1420mm) the fitting itself measures approximately 142cm tall, so a ceiling height of at least 3.5m is recommended to leave clearance below. The maximum 2880mm drop suits double-height spaces of 4.5-5m or above.
How is the 48kg weight supported?
Installation requires a ceiling plate fixed into a load-bearing joist, timber beam or concrete ceiling capable of safely supporting 50kg+. The fixing point must be structurally sound. A qualified electrician should assess the ceiling construction and install appropriate fixings before hanging the chandelier.
