Description
The Piper is a 916mm oval chandelier with six E14 bulb holders arranged within a polished chrome frame that suspends multiple rows of clear glass crystal beads and vertical crystal rods from the outer rim. The rods vary in length, creating a layered curtain effect around the bulbs, with individual faceted crystal droplets hanging at different heights to catch and refract light.
Designed for rectangular dining tables, kitchen islands and long entrance halls, the 916mm x 343mm oval footprint suits spaces where a circular chandelier would either be too narrow or too wide. The minimum drop of 448mm from ceiling to the bottom of the fitting means it works in standard 2.4m ceiling heights when positioned 600-700mm above a table surface. The maximum drop extends to 1362mm for double-height spaces or vaulted ceilings, with the cable length adjustable on installation.
Each of the six bulb positions takes an E14 candle bulb up to 60W (sold separately). The polished chrome finish on the frame and ceiling rose reflects ambient light and pairs with both warm and cool interior palettes, while the clear crystal beads and rods diffuse direct bulb glare into softer scattered light across the room. The crystal elements are individually hung, so some gentle movement and light refraction occurs naturally in spaces with air circulation.
The Piper is part of Kichler's decorative lighting range, designed and manufactured in the US with a focus on mid-century modern and contemporary styles. The fitting arrives with all suspension hardware, ceiling rose and adjustable cable, and installs onto a standard UK ceiling rose connection. The chrome frame and crystal elements can be wiped clean with a dry microfibre cloth, though the individual crystal droplets benefit from occasional removal and cleaning in warm soapy water to maintain clarity.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does the Piper take?
The chandelier takes six E14 candle bulbs, each rated up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with 4-6W LED candle bulbs in warm white (2700K-3000K) to create ambient dining light without excessive heat or glare.
What ceiling height is needed?
The minimum drop from ceiling to the lowest crystal droplet is 448mm. For positioning 600-700mm above a dining table, a ceiling height of 2.4m or above is recommended. The maximum drop extends to 1362mm for double-height spaces, with the cable adjustable on installation.
Is the oval shape suitable for rectangular tables?
Yes. The 916mm x 343mm oval footprint is designed specifically for rectangular dining tables and kitchen islands, where a circular chandelier would either be too narrow along the table length or too wide across the table width.
How are the crystal elements cleaned?
Wipe the chrome frame with a dry microfibre cloth. The crystal beads and rods can be cleaned in place with a barely-damp cloth, or for deeper cleaning, individual droplets can be removed, washed in warm soapy water, rinsed, dried and re-hung.
