Nardini 5 Light Crystal Chandelier 60cm - Chrome & Black Faux Leather

The Nardini is a 60cm 5-light chandelier built around black faux leather curved arms paired with polished chrome detailing and cut-crystal cube accents at each lampholder. Five E14 candle bulbs (sold separately) sit on upturned arms that radiate from a central black leather-wrapped column, with chrome canopy and chain suspension adjustable between 520mm and 1520mm drop. Each bulb holder rests on a faceted crystal cube that catches and reflects light when the chandelier is illuminated.

Designed for dining rooms, entrance halls and living rooms with ceiling heights of 2.6m or above, the Nardini pairs well with both contemporary and traditionally-styled interiors where a contrast finish is wanted. The 60cm diameter suits rooms of 15-25m² where a chandelier acts as the primary decorative ceiling feature. The black faux leather wrapping on the arms and central column provides tactile contrast against the reflective chrome metalwork and hard-edged crystal cubes, creating a play of matt and gloss surfaces under light.

The chandelier accepts any standard E14 candle bulb up to 60W per socket (total 300W across five bulbs). Dimming requires dimmable bulbs to be fitted — the chandelier itself has no integrated dimmer, so pairing with a compatible wall dimmer switch allows control from full output to low ambient levels. The 4.2kg weight requires secure ceiling fixing into a joist or ceiling anchor rated for loads above 5kg.

The faux leather finish is applied by hand to each arm during production, so minor tonal variation between individual units is normal and part of the manufacturing process. The crystal cubes are cut glass rather than acrylic, giving sharper facets and cleaner light refraction than plastic alternatives. Chrome plating on the metalwork is polished to a mirror finish, which shows fingerprints during handling but can be wiped clean with a dry microfibre cloth once installed.

Is the Nardini dimmable?

The chandelier itself has no integrated dimmer, but it accepts dimmable E14 bulbs which can then be controlled via a compatible wall dimmer switch. Non-dimmable bulbs will work at full brightness only.

What bulbs does it take?

The Nardini takes five E14 candle bulbs up to 60W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K for a traditional glow that complements the chrome and crystal.

What ceiling height is needed?

The adjustable drop ranges from 520mm to 1520mm. For dining tables the chandelier typically hangs 700-850mm above the table surface, which works in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.6m or above. Lower ceilings can still accommodate the Nardini if the chain is shortened to the minimum 520mm drop during installation.

How is the faux leather maintained?

Wipe the faux leather arms with a dry, soft microfibre cloth to remove dust. For marks, a barely-damp cloth is acceptable, but avoid soaking the material. Do not use household sprays, polishes or solvent-based cleaners on the leather finish.
