Description
The Nimble is a 700mm diameter crystal chandelier with eight E14 candle fittings arranged on hand-blown glass arms radiating from a central chrome column. Each arm terminates in a faceted glass cup that holds the bulb fitting, and cut crystal droplets in octagon and teardrop shapes hang from the frame, reflecting and refracting light across the room when lit.
Designed for dining rooms, entrance halls and living spaces with ceiling heights of 2.7m or above, the chandelier provides ambient and decorative light from eight bulbs (sold separately). The 600mm drop from ceiling to base gives the fitting presence in high-ceilinged rooms, while the included velvet chain cover conceals the suspension cable. Dimmable with compatible bulbs and dimmer switches, allowing control from bright task lighting during meals to softer ambient glow in the evening.
The hand-blown glass arms show slight variation in thickness and curve between individual pieces, which is characteristic of the glassblowing process. The chrome metalwork provides a polished reflective finish that pairs with both cool-toned contemporary interiors and warmer traditional schemes. The cut crystal droplets are faceted to catch and split light from the bulbs, creating moving patterns on walls and ceilings as air movement shifts the pendants.
From Ideal Lux, an Italian lighting manufacturer established in 1974 and known for combining traditional glassblowing techniques with contemporary frame design. The Nimble carries a five-year manufacturer warranty and an IP20 rating, making it suitable for dry indoor environments only.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does the Nimble take?
Eight E14 small Edison screw candle bulbs, sold separately. Most users pair this chandelier with warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K-3000K to recreate the traditional candle aesthetic without the heat output of halogen.
Is it dimmable?
Yes, when paired with dimmable E14 bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch. The chrome and glass frame itself has no electronics, so dimmer compatibility depends entirely on the bulbs chosen.
What ceiling height is needed?
The 600mm drop from ceiling rose to base works best in rooms with 2.7m or higher ceilings. In a dining room the chandelier typically hangs 750-850mm above the table surface to avoid head clearance issues while seated.
How are the crystal droplets cleaned?
Dust regularly with a soft microfibre cloth or feather duster. For deeper cleaning, remove individual droplets (they hang on small metal loops) and wash in warm soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly before reattaching. Do not spray cleaning products directly onto the chandelier while assembled.
