Siena 40cm Crystal Pendant Light - Polished Brass & Amber Silk Shade

The Siena is a 40cm pendant light built around an amber silk shade set in a polished brass frame, with a faceted crystal sphere at the base and crystal pendalogues hanging from the brass canopy. The shade houses three E27 bulbs (sold separately) inside a pleated amber silk drum that diffuses warm light through the fabric. The polished brass canopy and arms create a warm metallic anchor that frames the shade from above.

Designed for dining tables, entrance halls and living spaces with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above, the Siena provides both ambient and decorative light. The 520mm minimum drop positions the pendant 700-900mm above a dining table in standard-height rooms, while the 2200mm maximum drop accommodates taller ceilings or stairwells. The cable run is adjustable during installation. The crystal sphere and pendalogues catch and reflect light from the bulbs and nearby sources, adding depth to the fitting when viewed from different angles.

The amber silk shade measures 40cm diameter at the base, tapering up to meet the brass frame. The pleated silk construction gives the shade a soft texture that contrasts with the hard brass and crystal elements. The polished brass finish reflects warm light back into the room and pairs well with traditional, classical and warm-toned interiors. At 2kg the pendant requires a secure ceiling rose and supports loads typical of UK residential installation standards. The fitting is dimmable when paired with appropriate dimmable E27 bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch.

What bulbs does the Siena take?

The pendant takes three E27 (Edison screw) bulbs, sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED bulbs between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K for dining and living spaces. The total wattage depends on the bulbs chosen.

Is the Siena dimmable?

Yes, when fitted with dimmable E27 bulbs and connected to a compatible dimmer switch. The pendant itself does not restrict dimming — bulb and dimmer compatibility determines the final result.

What ceiling height is needed?

The 520mm minimum drop suits ceiling heights of 2.4m or above when hung 700-900mm above a dining table. The 2200mm maximum drop accommodates taller ceilings, stairwells and double-height spaces. The cable is adjustable during installation.

How is the silk shade cleaned?

Amber silk shades attract dust over time. Use a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner at low suction, or a dry microfibre cloth. Do not use water, sprays or chemical cleaners on silk — they can stain or damage the fabric.
