Description
The Luella is a 406mm diameter three-light pendant from Kichler, featuring a conical brushed natural brass shade suspended on a matching brass rod and ceiling rose. Three E14 bulb holders sit beneath the shade on curved brass arms that arc inward from the central stem, with each bulb angled to direct light both downward and outward through the shade opening. The fixture can be converted from pendant to semi-flush mount using the included shorter stem, giving a minimum drop of 230mm when fitted close to the ceiling or up to 1144mm when suspended as a full pendant.
Designed for dining tables, kitchen islands and hallways where both ambient and decorative lighting are needed, the Luella pairs mid-century proportions with a warm metallic finish that reads as neither fully contemporary nor fully traditional. The 406mm diameter suits tables 1200-1600mm long or kitchen islands up to 2000mm when paired with a second fixture. The three-light configuration provides enough output for a 10-12m² dining room when fitted with three 40W-equivalent LED bulbs (sold separately), with the conical shade directing most light downward while allowing some upward spill to soften ceiling shadows.
The brushed natural brass finish shows a softer, warmer tone than polished brass, with visible brush marks that reduce reflections and hide fingerprints during bulb changes. The shade measures 210mm in height and tapers from the 406mm base to a narrower opening at the bottom, creating a focused pool of light beneath while the curved arms add visual interest when viewed from the side. The drop is adjustable on installation by cutting the rod to the required length, allowing the pendant to be set 700-800mm above a dining table or fitted closer to the ceiling as a semi-flush mount in rooms with lower ceiling heights.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does the Luella take?
The fixture takes three E14 (small Edison screw) candle bulbs up to 40W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K for dining and kitchen island applications.
How does the duo-mount conversion work?
The fixture includes both a full-length rod for pendant installation (up to 1144mm drop) and a shorter stem for semi-flush mount installation (230mm drop). The conversion is done during initial installation by selecting which rod to use — it cannot be changed without taking the fixture down.
What ceiling height is needed for pendant mode?
For a dining table or kitchen island, the shade typically sits 700-800mm above the surface, which works in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above. The rod can be cut to a custom length during installation to suit specific ceiling heights.
Is the brass finish lacquered?
The brushed natural brass finish is typically lacquered to prevent tarnishing and oxidation over time. This maintains the warm gold tone without requiring polishing, though the lacquer may show wear at high-contact points like the ceiling rose after several years.
