Olivia 5 Light Crystal Chandelier - Antique Brass With Ivory Shade

The Olivia is a 50cm crystal chandelier pairing a five-arm antique brass frame with a pleated ivory fabric shade and Asfour cut crystal droplets. Five E14 candle bulbs sit beneath the shade, with crystal strands cascading from each curved arm and from the central drop. The pleated ivory shade diffuses light outward and downward, softening the sparkle from the crystal and casting a warm ambient glow across the room.

Designed for dining rooms, bedrooms and hallways with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above, the Olivia pairs traditional chandelier styling with a fabric shade that reduces glare. The adjustable suspension ranges from 690mm minimum drop to 1530mm maximum, allowing the fitting to be positioned 700-800mm above a dining table or centred in a bedroom at a higher level. The antique brass finish carries a warm, slightly aged patina that pairs comfortably with oak, walnut and warm-toned painted interiors.

The Asfour crystal is precision-cut leaded glass sourced from Asfour's Egyptian facilities, known for clarity and prismatic refraction. The pleated ivory shade uses a gauze-weight fabric that allows light transmission while hiding the bulb silhouettes when lit. At 3kg total weight, the chandelier requires a ceiling rose and fixing capable of supporting the load plus the additional weight of five bulbs. The five E14 fittings accept candle-style bulbs up to 40W each, giving flexibility to choose filament, LED or halogen bulbs depending on the desired light temperature and brightness.

What bulbs does the Olivia take?

The chandelier takes five E14 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-3000K for a soft ambient glow that complements the ivory shade and antique brass finish.

Is the Olivia dimmable?

Yes, if you use dimmable bulbs. The fitting itself is dimmer-compatible, but the bulbs must also be rated as dimmable. LED candle bulbs vary in dimmer compatibility, so check the bulb specification before pairing with a dimmer switch.

What ceiling height is needed?

The 690mm minimum drop suits rooms with 2.4m ceilings when the chandelier is positioned centrally. For dining tables, the fitting typically sits 700-800mm above the table surface, which works in rooms with 2.6m or higher ceilings. The suspension is adjustable up to 1530mm for higher ceilings or hallway installations.

How is the crystal cleaned?

The Asfour crystal droplets can be wiped with a dry microfibre cloth or a barely-damp cloth with distilled water. Avoid household glass cleaners or sprays that may leave residue on the leaded glass. The ivory shade should be dusted gently with a soft brush or cloth; it is not washable.
