{"product_id":"flessen-8-light-traditional-chandelier-polished-brass","title":"Flessen 8 Light Traditional Chandelier - Polished Brass","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Flessen is an 8 light traditional chandelier built around a central polished brass sphere, with eight curved arms radiating outward in a symmetrical arrangement. Each arm terminates in a candle-style drip pan and SES (Small Edison Screw) bulb holder, creating a 71cm diameter ring of light. The solid brass construction gives the fitting a substantial 4kg weight, requiring a ceiling mounting point rated for chandelier loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for formal dining rooms, entrance halls with ceiling heights above 2.7m, and stairwell landings where the chandelier can be viewed from multiple levels, the Flessen suits Georgian, Victorian and traditional interiors. The 43cm drop from ceiling rose to base fits rooms with standard 2.4m ceilings where a pendant needs to clear head height, or can hang lower in double-height spaces. The eight-light configuration provides broad coverage over dining tables up to 2m long or entrance halls up to 4m square.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe polished brass finish presents as highly reflective, catching both daylight and evening lamplight with a mirror-like sheen that softens over time unless regularly buffed. The curved arms feature gentle fluting at the central sphere join, and the proportions follow traditional Flemish chandelier geometry with arms that arc outward before turning upward to hold the bulb fittings. Each arm accepts a candle-style bulb up to 60W (bulbs sold separately), with most users pairing the fitting with 4-6W warm-white LED SES candle bulbs to keep heat low and running costs manageable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe central sphere includes a hanging loop at the base that mirrors the chain attachment at the top, providing visual symmetry when viewed from below. The polished brass pairs with both warm-toned wood interiors and cooler marble or stone hall finishes, and can be mixed with period brass door furniture, stair rails and picture frames to create a cohesive material language across traditional spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolished Brass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e71cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNumber of Lights\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Wattage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBulb Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSES\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4KG\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 bulbs does the Flessen take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chandelier takes eight SES (Small Edison Screw, E14 base) candle-style bulbs, each rated up to 60W.

To maintain the mirror-like finish, wipe with a dry microfibre cloth weekly and buff with a brass polish every few months. Some users prefer to let the brass age naturally for a warmer, lived-in appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Impex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51513759891723,"sku":"BF00350\/08\/PB","price":332.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/BF00350-08-PB_e384f76e-b185-4db7-a5ec-8e907628e2b1.jpg?v=1748622887","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/flessen-8-light-traditional-chandelier-polished-brass","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
