Description
The Santo is a 52cm diameter crystal chandelier with four E14 candle bulb fittings on polished chrome arms, each draped with strands of Asfour cut crystal beads. A twisting central column runs through the frame, decorated with crystal spheres and terminating in a single faceted crystal ball beneath the lowest tier. The four arms radiate from this central column, each topped with a crystal drip pan beneath the bulb holder.
Designed for dining rooms, entrance halls and living rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above, the Santo provides decorative ambient light through the combination of bare candle bulbs and the refractive crystal beads surrounding them. The drop is adjustable between 520mm and 1620mm on installation via the chain length, allowing the chandelier to be set 700-900mm above a dining table or lower in double-height entrance halls. The polished chrome canopy fits standard UK ceiling roses.
Asfour crystal is lead-free optical glass cut with multiple facets to maximise refraction and light dispersion. Each bead on the Santo catches and scatters light from the four bulbs and any ambient daylight in the room, creating the characteristic sparkle associated with traditional chandeliers. The polished chrome finish on the metalwork reflects light without oxidising over time, maintaining the clean silver tone. At 4kg the fitting requires secure ceiling fixing into a joist or reinforced ceiling rose.
The chandelier accepts any standard E14 small Edison screw bulbs up to 60W each (sold separately). Most users pair the Santo with warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K to mimic traditional flame light. Dimmer compatibility depends on the bulbs chosen — check the bulb packaging for dimmer suitability if pairing with a dimmer switch.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does the Santo take?
The chandelier takes four E14 small Edison screw candle bulbs up to 60W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users choose warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K for a traditional flame-like glow.
Is it dimmable?
Yes, provided you use dimmable bulbs. The fitting itself is compatible with dimmer switches, but dimmer performance depends entirely on the bulbs you choose. Check the bulb packaging for dimmer compatibility before pairing with a dimmer.
What ceiling height is needed?
The minimum drop of 520mm means the chandelier sits at least 520mm below the ceiling rose. For a dining table the chandelier typically hangs 700-900mm above the surface, which works in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above. The chain can be shortened during installation to suit lower ceilings.
How is the crystal cleaned?
Switch off the power and allow the bulbs to cool. Wipe each crystal bead gently with a dry microfibre cloth. For more stubborn marks, a barely-damp cloth with distilled water is acceptable, but avoid soaking the metalwork or dripping water into the bulb holders. Do not use household glass cleaners or sprays on the chrome or crystal.
