{"product_id":"paola-3-light-chandelier-silver-with-black-shades","title":"Paola 3 Light Chandelier - Silver with Black Shades","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Paola is a 550mm 3-light chandelier with three silver-painted metal arms extending from a central stem, each arm terminating in a black fabric shade that houses an E14 bulb (sold separately). The arms curve outward and upward in a symmetrical formation, with three small black glass droplets suspended below the arms adding a decorative accent. The silver finish is painted rather than polished chrome, giving a softer metallic tone that sits between bright chrome and brushed nickel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for dining rooms, entrance halls and living rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above, the Paola uses the contrast between the reflective silver frame and the matte black shades to add definition to the fitting. The drop is adjustable between 600mm and 1600mm on installation, allowing the chandelier to be positioned 700-900mm above a dining table or hung lower in a double-height hallway. The fabric shades direct light downward for task illumination while the open top of the fitting allows some upward wash onto the ceiling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black shades measure approximately 150mm across the base and 120mm in height, providing enough diffusion to soften the glow from a candle-style LED filament bulb without blocking it entirely. The silver-painted frame shows visible brush texture under close inspection, which is characteristic of the painted finish and distinguishes it from electroplated or polished metal alternatives. The 1.8kg weight sits comfortably within the load capacity of standard UK ceiling roses and hooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour Finish 1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSilver Painted\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShade Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e550mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinimum Drop\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e600mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Drop\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1600mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNumber Of Bulbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLamp Socket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE14\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDependent On Lamps Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVoltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e220-240V~50\/60Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimmable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes - Dimmable Lamps Required\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.8KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 Year\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat bulbs does it take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Paola takes three E14 small Edison screw bulbs, sold separately. Most users pair this chandelier with warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K-3000K. The shades suit candle-style filament bulbs that sit partly exposed at the top of the shade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it dimmable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, provided you fit dimmable bulbs and pair the fitting with a compatible dimmer switch. Standard non-dimmable LED bulbs will not dim and may flicker or fail if used with a dimmer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat drop height works for a dining table?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a dining table, the chandelier typically sits 700-800mm above the table surface. With a 2.4m ceiling and a standard 750mm table height, that leaves 850mm for the drop, which sits within the 600-1600mm adjustable range. Adjust the chain length during installation to suit your specific ceiling height.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the silver finish maintained?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe silver-painted metal can be wiped gently with a dry microfibre cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that may damage the painted surface. The black fabric shades can be lightly dusted or vacuumed on a low setting with a brush attachment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mantra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51935605358859,"sku":"M0532","price":185.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/paola_M0532_WB_big_d569b665-c0e7-4cb2-aab4-72d7180fef42.jpg?v=1753475067","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/paola-3-light-chandelier-silver-with-black-shades","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
