Hilton 5 Light Pentagonal Chandelier - Satin Black & Dark Grey Wood

The Hilton is a 600mm pentagonal chandelier built around five dark grey wooden arms radiating from a central satin black metal hub. Each arm supports a single E14 candle fitting (bulbs sold separately), and the five arms are arranged in a five-sided geometric pattern that gives the chandelier a compact footprint compared to traditional circular chandeliers of similar width. The metal frame is finished in satin black, while the wooden arms carry a dark grey stain that contrasts subtly against the black metalwork.

Designed for dining rooms, open-plan kitchen-diners and hallways with ceiling heights between 2.4m and 3.2m, the Hilton's adjustable drop runs from 750mm minimum to 1750mm maximum, allowing the fitting to be set between 600-900mm above a dining table or island depending on ceiling height. The pentagonal configuration keeps the 600mm diameter visually balanced without the visual spread of a six-arm or eight-arm chandelier, making it suitable for spaces where a traditional five-bulb fitting would be too wide.

The dark grey wood grain shows through the stain, giving each arm a visible texture that pairs well with both modern industrial interiors and transitional spaces where wood and metal finishes are mixed. The satin black finish on the frame reduces reflections under direct light, keeping the metalwork understated. The chandelier weighs 3.3kg and requires a ceiling rose rated for suspension fittings. Dimmer compatibility depends on the E14 bulbs used — fit dimmable LED candle bulbs to allow brightness control.

What bulbs does the Hilton take?

The chandelier takes five E14 (small Edison screw) candle bulbs up to 20W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most buyers pair this with warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K-3000K for ambient dining light.

Is it dimmable?

Yes, provided you fit dimmable E14 bulbs and pair them with a compatible dimmer switch. The chandelier itself does not contain dimming circuitry — dimmer compatibility depends entirely on the bulbs chosen.

What ceiling height is needed?

The adjustable drop runs from 750mm to 1750mm. For a dining table the chandelier typically sits 700-850mm above the table surface, which works in rooms with ceiling heights from 2.4m upwards. Higher ceilings allow the fitting to be lowered further for more dramatic vertical presence.

How is the pentagonal shape different from a circular chandelier?

The five-sided configuration creates a more compact visual footprint than a traditional circular chandelier of the same width. The arms radiate from a central point in a pentagon rather than a circle, which reduces the perceived spread and can suit narrower dining tables or rectangular spaces better than round fittings.
