Description
Opal glass, blown into a round globe with an open mouth at the base, hangs from a slim suspension finished in satin nickel. The globe is 20cm across, small enough to read as a soft point of light rather than a shade, and the open base sends the lamp's output straight down onto the surface below. The metalwork is quiet about itself: satin nickel carries a low brushed sheen, cooler than brass and far less reflective than chrome.
The drop can be set short or run out long, which is what makes it flexible. We would hang a run of them along a kitchen island, or take one down beside a bed where a table lamp would eat into the surface, or let it fall further in a hallway with height to spare. It takes an E27 lamp up to 20W, and it will dim where a dimmable lamp is paired with a compatible dimmer, so you can take the level down in the evening. It is one we suggest when a wide shade would crowd the room.
Glass and plated metal are all there is to look after, and neither asks much. Dust the globe with a dry cloth, and where cooking has left a film on it, wipe with a barely damp cloth and dry it off at once; the nickel wants nothing wetter than that. Keep it to dry rooms indoors, clear of bathroom splash and anything exposed to weather. The same open-mouth globe turns up elsewhere in the range as a round flush fitting, in antique gold or polished chrome, which is useful where a ceiling elsewhere sits too low for a drop. It carries a one year warranty. Lamps are not included.

Frequently Asked
How far down does it hang?
The drop is adjustable from 410mm at its shortest to 1760mm at its longest, so it can sit tight to the ceiling or fall well below it.
Which lamp should I use?
It takes a single E27 lamp of up to 20W, and an LED is the sensible choice behind an opal shade. No lamp is supplied with the fitting.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you fit a dimmable lamp and a dimmer that is compatible with it. No dimmer is included.
How big is the globe, and how heavy is the fitting?
The glass globe measures 200mm in diameter and the whole pendant weighs 0.9kg.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, which means dry indoor rooms only, so kitchens, bedrooms, hallways and living rooms rather than bath or shower areas.
Does the shade come in other colours?
This one is opal glass with satin nickel metalwork. The same open-mouth globe shape appears in the range on flush fittings in other glass and metal combinations.
