Dramenne 12 Light Ceiling Light - Black

The Dramenne is a twelve light ceiling light made from steel and finished in black. Its slender arms branch and rejoin to form a honeycomb pattern of open hexagons, and each arm ends in a plain cylindrical lampholder, so the bulbs sit exposed and the frame itself does the decorating. It measures 92cm in diameter and 36cm in height, a broad, fairly shallow shape that spreads light across the ceiling rather than hanging low into the room. Each of the twelve E27 lampholders takes a bulb of up to 60W, and bulbs are not included. It is rated IP20, which settles where it belongs: indoors, in a dry room.

With a spread of 92cm, it suits a generous space: a living room, an open plan kitchen and dining area, or a wide landing where one fitting has to light a lot of ceiling. Because every bulb is on show, your choice of lamp shapes the look. Amber globe filament bulbs bring a warm, workshop feel, while plainer bulbs keep things crisp and modern. The black frame stands out against a pale ceiling, so its branching lines still read clearly by day, even when no bulb is lit.

Steel is strong and rigid, which suits a frame that has to hold twelve arms in a steady shape. There is no switch on the light itself: it is switched at the wall, so it answers to the wall switch in your room. It runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains, and as a wired-in mains light it should be installed by a qualified electrician. It weighs 5.899KG packed, and the installation instructions come as a download. Before you order, measure the space around your ceiling point, because at 92cm across it needs plenty of clear room on every side.
