Description
The Rigby is a 1016mm three-light island chandelier built around a bronze frame with antique brass shades and mesh detailing inspired by American barn lighting. Three E27 fittings hang from cast antique brass socket covers beneath conical shades, each shade combining a solid brass rim with a textured mesh top section. The frame suspends from two adjustable cables, allowing the fitting to be set between 404mm and 1015mm drop on installation.
Designed for kitchen islands, dining tables and long workspaces, the Rigby provides task lighting distributed across a metre-wide span. The 254mm projection suits tables and islands with 600-900mm depth, placing the three light sources in a straight line down the centre. The mesh shade tops diffuse direct glare from exposed filament bulbs while the open underside allows downlight to reach the work surface. Each socket accepts up to 60W, giving flexibility to choose LED filament, halogen or standard bulbs depending on the light output required.
The bronze frame contrasts with the warmer antique brass finish on the shades and socket covers, adding depth to the industrial aesthetic without relying on a single uniform tone. The mesh is pressed metal rather than woven wire, giving a consistent geometric pattern across all three shades. The rectangular canopy measures 178mm high and conceals the cable entry points and junction box, fitting standard UK ceiling roses. At 1016mm width, the Rigby suits islands and tables between 1.8m and 2.4m long.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does the Rigby take?
Each of the three sockets accepts a standard E27 bulb up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED filament bulbs between 6-8W and 2700K for ambient dining or kitchen task lighting.
What ceiling height is needed?
The drop is adjustable between 404mm and 1015mm on installation. For a kitchen island or dining table, the fitting typically sits 700-850mm above the surface, which works in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above. The adjustment happens during fitting by shortening or lengthening the suspension cables.
What table or island length does it suit?
The 1016mm width suits tables and islands between 1.8m and 2.4m long. For longer islands, consider pairing two Rigby fittings or using a larger multi-light pendant from the same collection.
Is the mesh shade functional or decorative?
Both. The pressed metal mesh at the top of each shade diffuses direct glare from exposed filament bulbs while allowing heat to escape. The open underside directs light downward onto the work surface or table.
