Description
Five slim arms curve out from a central ceiling plate and turn downwards, spacing their lamps evenly around a circle 64cm across. The finish is satin black, a soft low sheen rather than a gloss, and the drop adjusts so the frame can sit fairly close to the ceiling or hang much lower over a table. It comes as a frame on its own, with shades chosen to suit, and that is rather the point of it: E27 sockets ready for whatever glass, metal or fabric you decide on.
We would hang this over a round dining table or a broad kitchen island, where the ring of lamps echoes the shape of the surface beneath. It also earns its keep in a tall hallway or above a stairwell landing, where the longer drop lets the curve of the arms be seen properly from below. Each socket takes up to 20W, so the light is spread across several modest lamps rather than concentrated in one, and with dimmable lamps and a dimmer on the circuit it can be taken down to a quiet evening level.
The satin black is carried right along each arm, so the sweep reads as one continuous line from any angle you look at it. Dust gathers on the upper faces of the arms before anywhere else, so run a soft dry cloth along them occasionally with the power off, and keep polishes and solvents away from the paint. It carries a one year warranty. The same curved arms appear in a round frame with fewer lamps and in linear frames, in satin black and in antique brass with black, and we also stock the compact Dreifa ceiling light in a good spread of finishes if you want something to answer it elsewhere in the room. Shades and lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
Does this come with shades?
No. It is sold as the frame, with five E27 sockets, so you choose shades to suit the room. Lamps are supplied separately too.
How far below the ceiling will it hang?
The drop is adjustable between 420mm and 1270mm, so it can sit reasonably high in a hallway or hang low over a dining table.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you fit dimmable lamps and a compatible dimmer on the circuit. No dimmer is supplied with the frame.
What lamps should I use?
LED E27 lamps up to 20W each. The right style depends on the shades you pick, as an open or clear shade will leave the lamp on view.
How wide is the fitting?
The arms describe a circle 640mm in diameter, which suits round tables and islands of a similar or slightly larger footprint.
How should I clean it?
Switch the power off first, then wipe the arms with a soft dry cloth. Avoid abrasive creams and chemical sprays on the satin black.
