Description
This is one of those small metal parts that finishes a fitting properly rather than one that lights a room. It is a deeper ring for a lampholder, 50mm across and shallow in profile, in the antique copper tone that runs through the wider Dreifa range. The extra depth gives a shade collar or gallery a little more to grip, and the ring itself reads as a neat warm band just beneath the shade. There are no electrical parts to it, so it plays no part in the circuit.
We reach for pieces like this when a light has been built up from separate components and the standard ring sits too shallow for the shade in hand. It suits a pendant over a kitchen island, a hallway drop, or a bedside light where holder and shade have come from different places and need reconciling. Because the finish is warm rather than bright, it sits well against brick, painted timber and deeper wall colours, and keeps company with copper and brass taps and handles. Anyone putting together a made-to-order pendant will find it a handy thing to have in the drawer.
The ring is metal with an antique copper finish, so the colour carries some depth and slight variation rather than reading as flat plating. Keep it looking right with an occasional wipe from a dry cloth; metal polishes and cream cleaners will lift the aged tone, so leave those in the cupboard. It carries a one year warranty. We also stock the same deeper ring in gun metal, and antique copper ceiling boxes from the same range, which is worth knowing if you want every visible part of a pendant run to agree on one finish.

Frequently Asked
What are the dimensions?
It measures 50mm in diameter and 15mm high, so it adds a small amount of depth without changing the look of the fitting.
Is it an electrical item?
No, it is a non-electric component. It has no lampholder mechanism or wiring of its own and simply finishes the assembly.
What is the finish like?
An antique copper: warm and slightly darkened, so it reads softer than a bright polished copper.
How should I clean it?
A dry cloth is all it needs. Avoid metal polish, cream cleaners and anything abrasive, as these will take the aged tone off the surface.
Is it offered in other finishes?
The same deeper ring is stocked in gun metal. Ceiling boxes in the same range come in antique copper and a good number of other finishes.
Does it come with a warranty?
Yes, it carries a one year warranty.
