Drawing Room 5 Light Chandelier - Walnut

The Drawing Room is a five-light chandelier built around a die-cast aluminium frame finished in walnut, with five downward-facing bell-shaped glass shades. Each shade is pressed glass with a decorative fretwork band at the collar, and the metal scrollwork arms curve outward from a central column in a classical five-point configuration. The frame carries visible detail work including fluted collars at each light position and layered scroll terminals at the arm ends.

Designed for dining rooms, entrance halls and sitting rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or higher, the chandelier provides general ambient lighting across a 3-4m room diameter when fitted with five E27 bulbs (sold separately). The 635mm diameter suits rectangular dining tables of 1.8-2.4m length and round tables up to 1.5m diameter. The drop is adjustable on installation between 660mm and 2185mm via a chain-and-cable system, allowing the fitting to be positioned 700-900mm above a table surface or lower in taller rooms with vaulted ceilings.

The walnut finish is a mid-to-dark brown metal coating with a low-sheen surface that reads warmer than oil-rubbed bronze but cooler than antique brass. The pressed glass shades diffuse the bulb light and reduce glare when the fitting is viewed from below. The fretwork bands at each shade collar echo Edwardian architectural detailing common in British interiors from the 1900-1910 period, giving the chandelier a period-sympathetic appearance in homes with Arts and Crafts or traditional architectural features. The combined metal frame and five glass shades give the fitting substantial presence without the weight of a crystal or wrought-iron equivalent.

What bulbs does it take?

The chandelier takes five E27 (Edison screw) bulbs, each rated up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most installations use warm-white LED bulbs between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K for dining and living rooms.

What table size does it suit?

The 635mm diameter works over rectangular dining tables of 1.8-2.4m length and round tables up to 1.5m diameter. The chandelier should typically be positioned 700-900mm above the table surface, which requires a ceiling height of at least 2.4m when using the minimum 660mm drop.

Is the drop adjustable after installation?

The drop is adjustable on installation only, not after the fitting is wired and mounted. The chain can be shortened or left at full length during fitting to position the chandelier between 660mm and 2185mm below the ceiling rose.

What finish is the walnut coating?

The walnut finish is a mid-to-dark brown metal coating with a low-sheen surface. It reads warmer than oil-rubbed bronze or matt black but cooler and less reflective than polished or antique brass, pairing well with oak, walnut and mahogany furniture tones.
