The frame suspends multiple layers of precision-cut crystal beads and spheres, each layer positioned to catch and refract light from the bulbs above and around it. The chrome canopy measures approximately 350mm in diameter and supports the weight of the 28.2kg fixture on four suspension cables adjustable between 920mm and 1730mm drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for large double-height foyers, entrance halls, reception spaces and dining rooms with ceiling heights of 3.5m or above, the Empire provides both ambient light and architectural presence. The 1100mm diameter occupies substantial ceiling space — typically centred over a floor area of 4-5m square to maintain proportion. The 15 G9 bulbs (sold separately) are positioned behind and between the crystal layers, so the light source is diffused rather than directly visible from below. With dimmable G9 LED bulbs the Empire can shift from full brilliance for entertaining to softer background light for everyday use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach crystal component is facet-cut to specific angles, so light entering the chandelier fractures into controlled patterns of refracted brightness rather than random sparkle. The polished chrome finish reflects light back through the crystal layers, amplifying the overall luminous effect. The 28.2kg weight requires a ceiling fixing capable of supporting at least 40kg — the installation must be undertaken by a qualified electrician familiar with heavy pendant fittings. The adjustable drop allows the chandelier to be raised or lowered during installation to suit the specific ceiling height and room proportion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour Finish 1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolished Chrome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1100mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinimum Drop\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e920mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Drop\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1730mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNumber Of Bulbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLamp Socket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eG9\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax Wattage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLamp Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDependent On Lamps Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVoltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e220-240V~50\/60Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimmable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes - Dimmable Lamps Required\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e28.2KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 Year\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat ceiling height is needed for the Empire 1100mm chandelier?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chandelier works best in rooms with ceiling heights of 3.5m or above. The adjustable drop between 920mm and 1730mm allows the fitting to be positioned appropriately for the specific space. In a double-height foyer the chandelier is typically suspended so the bottom of the crystal sits 2.2-2.5m above the floor, giving clearance for movement while maintaining visual presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat bulbs does it take and are they included?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Empire takes 15 G9 capsule bulbs, sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED G9 bulbs between 2.5-4W and 2700K-3000K. Dimmable G9 LEDs are recommended if you want to control brightness. The maximum wattage per bulb is 33W, but modern LED equivalents use far less power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the chandelier be installed on a standard ceiling rose?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The 28.2kg weight requires a reinforced ceiling fixing capable of supporting at least 40kg. The installation must be undertaken by a qualified electrician who can assess the ceiling structure and fit appropriate mounting hardware. The four suspension cables distribute the weight but the ceiling fixing itself must be substantial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the crystal cleaned?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn off the power at the consumer unit before cleaning. Use a soft microfibre cloth, barely damp with distilled water, to wipe each crystal component individually. Avoid household sprays or chemical cleaners, which can leave residue that dulls the crystal over time. For a deep clean, individual crystal strands can be removed and washed in warm water with a drop of washing-up liquid, then rinsed and dried thoroughly before re-hanging.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Diyas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52021510373643,"sku":"IL31732","price":1128.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/empire_IL31732_WB_e2538a90-2ff8-47ce-adbd-525af32fc654.jpg?v=1754320792","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/empire-15-light-crystal-chandelier-110cm-polished-chrome","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
