Puntes 12 Light Crystal Chandelier - Chrome

The Puntes is a 12 light crystal chandelier built around two tiers of facet-cut clear crystal prisms mounted on a polished chrome metal frame. The upper tier carries eight E14 lamp holders, the lower tier carries four, all suspended from a chrome ceiling rose on an adjustable chain. Each crystal prism is cut with flat facets that catch and refract light from the twelve bulbs, throwing rainbow reflections across walls and ceilings when lit.

Designed for dining rooms, entrance halls and living spaces with ceiling heights of 2.6m or above, the Puntes measures 68cm in diameter and 57-80cm in drop depending on chain adjustment. The 68cm diameter suits rectangular dining tables of 1.8-2.4m length or circular tables up to 1.5m diameter, positioned centrally with the chandelier hanging 750-850mm above the tabletop. In entrance halls the full 80cm drop can be used where ceiling height allows, creating a statement overhead without obstructing passage beneath.

The two-tiered arrangement gives the chandelier visual depth when viewed from below. The upper ring of crystals sits wider than the lower ring, forming a tapered drum silhouette rather than a flat disc. The polished chrome finish on the metal frame reflects the crystal prismatic light, amplifying the overall sparkle. The E14 bulb base accepts standard candle-style LED or halogen bulbs up to 40W each, sold separately. Most installations use warm-white LED candle bulbs at 4-6W to reduce heat build-up within the crystal layers.

Product Manual

What bulbs does the Puntes take?

The chandelier takes twelve E14 candle-style bulbs up to 40W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users fit warm-white LED candle bulbs at 4-6W and 2700K-3000K to reduce heat and running costs while maintaining the warm light character of a traditional chandelier.

Is it dimmable?

Dimmer compatibility depends on the bulbs you fit. LED E14 candle bulbs marked 'dimmable' will work with most trailing-edge dimmers. Non-dimmable LED bulbs will flicker or fail on a dimmer circuit. Check bulb packaging before pairing with a dimmer.

What ceiling height is needed?

The 57-80cm adjustable drop suits rooms with ceiling heights of 2.6m or above. For dining table installation, allow 750-850mm clearance between the tabletop and the bottom of the chandelier to avoid head-height obstruction when seated.

How is the crystal cleaned?

Switch off and allow bulbs to cool completely. Wipe each crystal prism with a dry microfibre cloth. For stubborn marks, a barely-damp cloth with distilled water is acceptable, but avoid soaking the metal fittings or dripping water into the lamp holders. Do not use household glass cleaners or sprays — they leave residue that dulls the crystal over time.
