Description
The Plantation is a 3-light chandelier built around a pineapple-cut optic glass centrepiece suspended within a pearl bronze metalwork frame that spans 546mm across. Three curved arms extend from the central column, each terminating in a candle-style E14 socket fitted with a cream bell-shaped fabric shade. The bronze frame incorporates cast pineapple motifs at the canopy, arms and base finial, with painted ivory sleeves around each candle position.
Designed for dining rooms, hallways and traditional sitting rooms with ceiling heights of 2.6m or above, the chandelier provides ambient overhead light through the three shaded bulbs plus decorative light refracted through the central pineapple glass. The 1524mm chain allows the drop to be adjusted between 890mm minimum and 2415mm maximum on installation, giving flexibility across different ceiling heights. Each E14 socket takes up to 40W, with most installations using warm-white LED candle bulbs around 4-6W and 2700K.
The pearl bronze finish is a mid-tone metallic brown with subtle gold undertones, achieved through a multi-stage powder coating process over the cast and fabricated metalwork. The optic glass pineapple at the centre is hand-pressed into a diamond pattern that catches and disperses both daylight and artificial light, adding visual weight to the fitting when viewed from below. The combination of fabric shades, cast detailing and cut glass gives the chandelier a presence more associated with larger multi-tier fittings, while the 546mm diameter remains practical for rooms 3-4m wide.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does the Plantation take?
Each of the three arms takes an E14 small Edison screw candle bulb up to 40W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K-3000K to match the traditional character of the bronze and glass.
What ceiling height is needed?
The 1524mm chain is adjustable on installation between 890mm minimum drop and 2415mm maximum drop. For a dining table the chandelier typically sits 750-850mm above the surface, which works in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.6m or above. The chain can be shortened during fitting to suit lower ceilings.
Can the fabric shades be removed for cleaning?
Yes. The cream fabric shades clip onto each candle sleeve and can be removed for dusting or spot cleaning. The shades are not machine-washable — use a soft brush or lint roller to remove dust, or spot-clean gently with a barely-damp cloth.
What is the pearl bronze finish?
Pearl bronze is a mid-tone metallic brown with subtle gold undertones, applied through a multi-stage powder coating process. It sits between antique bronze (which is darker and more aged-looking) and polished brass (which is brighter and more yellow-toned).
