Nora 3 Light Cluster Pendant - Chrome Frosted Glass & Black Marble

The Nora is a 3 light cluster pendant from Mantra combining chrome frosted glass shades with black marble detailing on a matt black canopy. Three cylindrical glass shades hang at staggered heights from a 534mm-diameter ceiling plate, each housing a single E27 bulb (sold separately). The glass is chrome-plated on the exterior with a frosted inner layer, giving a reflective metallic surface when unlit and a soft diffused glow when lit.

Designed for dining areas, kitchen islands and double-height entrance halls, the Nora works in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.6m or above to accommodate the minimum 440mm drop. The adjustable cables allow each shade to be set between 440mm and 1800mm from the ceiling during installation, creating a cascading arrangement suited to the room proportions. The 534mm canopy diameter means this pendant needs a clear ceiling zone and works best over tables or island worktops rather than in confined circulation spaces.

The black marble detailing appears on the upper rim of each glass shade and on sections of the ceiling canopy, adding a natural stone texture against the chrome and matt black metalwork. The frosted glass diffuses the light from the E27 bulbs, reducing glare while still providing task lighting for surfaces below. The chrome plating on the glass shades gives a warm metallic tone when viewed from certain angles under daylight, shifting cooler under artificial light. At 4.8kg the pendant requires secure ceiling fixing into a joist or suitable anchor rated for the combined weight.

The Nora is dimmable when paired with dimmable E27 LED bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch, allowing the light level to be adjusted from task brightness to ambient background lighting. The wide voltage range (100-240V) supports installation in both UK and international properties.

What bulbs does the Nora take?

The pendant takes three E27 (Edison screw) bulbs, sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED bulbs between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K. The maximum wattage depends on the specific bulb technology — consult the bulb manufacturer's guidance for heat output in enclosed glass fittings.

Can the drop heights be adjusted individually?

Yes. Each of the three cables is independently adjustable between 440mm and 1800mm during installation, allowing you to create a cascading or clustered arrangement to suit the room height and the surface below.

Is the Nora dimmable?

Yes, when paired with dimmable E27 LED bulbs and a compatible LED dimmer switch. The pendant itself has no integrated dimming electronics — dimmer compatibility depends on the bulbs chosen and the dimmer model installed in the wall circuit.

What ceiling fixing is needed for the 4.8kg weight?

The 534mm canopy must be fixed into a joist or ceiling structure capable of supporting 4.8kg plus the weight of three bulbs. If the ceiling rose position does not align with a joist, use appropriate cavity fixings or a ceiling spreader plate rated for the combined load.
