Evelyn 4 Light Crystal Linear Pendant Light - Chrome With Cream Shade

The Evelyn is an 800mm linear pendant light built around a rectangular cream pleated fabric shade with a vertical crystal panel insert, suspended on cables from an oval polished chrome canopy. Four E27 bulb fittings sit inside the shade behind the fabric and crystal, with the light diffusing through both the pleated cream material and the cut crystal section. A single faceted crystal drop hangs below the shade as a decorative accent.

Designed for kitchen islands, dining tables and reception areas where linear fixtures suit the space better than round pendants, the Evelyn provides ambient light across an 800mm span without creating harsh shadows. The drop is adjustable between 300mm and 1250mm on installation, allowing it to be set as a low pendant over a worktop or dining table, or as a semi-flush fixture close to the ceiling in rooms with lower heights. The cream fabric softens the light output and reduces glare from exposed bulbs.

The pleated cream shade gives the fitting a textile presence that balances the metallic chrome frame, making it suitable for both contemporary and transitional interiors. The vertical crystal panel adds a decorative accent without overwhelming the clean rectangular form. At 4.8kg the fitting has enough weight to hang stably on the suspension cables without swaying under air movement. The polished chrome finish reflects room light and pairs cleanly with stainless steel appliances and chrome tap fittings in kitchen installations.

What bulbs does the Evelyn take?

The fitting takes four E27 (Edison screw) bulbs up to 60W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED bulbs between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K for ambient dining or kitchen island lighting.

Is the Evelyn dimmable?

Yes, provided you use dimmable bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch. The fitting itself supports dimming but requires both suitable E27 dimmable lamps and a dimmer rated for the total wattage being used.

What drop height works best over a dining table or kitchen island?

For dining tables the shade typically sits 700-800mm above the table surface, which works in rooms with 2.4m or higher ceilings. For kitchen islands the shade can be set 600-750mm above the worktop depending on ceiling height and whether you need clearance for tall people walking past.

Can it be fitted as a semi-flush ceiling light?

Yes. The minimum drop of 300mm allows the Evelyn to be installed close to the ceiling as a semi-flush fixture in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.2m-2.4m where a long drop would be impractical.
