Sonnet 12 Light Crystal Chandelier - Gold

The Sonnet is a 12 light crystal chandelier built on a polished gold metal frame with two tiers of scrolling arms, each supporting an E14 candle fitting. Octagonal and round cut crystal pendants hang from the frame and central column, with additional droplets suspended below each bulb holder. The 900mm diameter and 750mm drop suit rooms with ceiling heights of 2.7m or above.

Designed for dining rooms, entrance halls and double-height living spaces, the Sonnet provides both ambient light through the twelve bulbs and decorative sparkle from the crystal. The chandelier is dimmable when paired with compatible E14 LED candle bulbs and a trailing-edge dimmer, allowing the light level to be adjusted for meals or evening use. The velvet chain cover conceals the cable run from ceiling rose to canopy.

The polished gold finish on the metal frame gives a warm metallic accent that works in traditional, classical and warm contemporary interiors. Each crystal pendant is faceted to catch and refract light across multiple surfaces, creating movement and sparkle when the chandelier is lit. The combination of scrollwork arms, candle-style fittings and cascading crystal gives the fitting a classical chandelier silhouette at a 900mm scale that fills the visual space above a 1.8-2.4m dining table without overwhelming smaller rooms.

Manufactured by Ideal Lux in Italy, the Sonnet carries a 5 year warranty and an IP20 rating for dry indoor use only. The chandelier requires assembly on installation, with the crystal pendants supplied loose and hung individually from the pre-fitted hooks on the frame.

What bulbs does the Sonnet take?

The chandelier takes twelve E14 small Edison screw candle bulbs, sold separately. Most users pair this with 4-6W LED candle bulbs in warm white (2700K-3000K) to achieve a total output of around 4,800-7,200 lumens across all twelve fittings.

Is it dimmable?

Yes, the chandelier is dimmable when used with dimmable E14 LED bulbs and a compatible trailing-edge dimmer switch. Check that both the bulbs and dimmer are designed to work together before installation.

What ceiling height is needed?

The 750mm drop from canopy to lowest crystal pendant suits rooms with ceiling heights of 2.7m or above. For dining tables, the chandelier typically hangs 750-850mm above the table surface, which requires a minimum 2.7m ceiling when accounting for the chandelier height and clearance below.

Does it arrive assembled?

No. The metal frame, chain and canopy are pre-assembled, but the crystal pendants are supplied loose and must be hung individually from the hooks on the frame during installation. Assembly instructions are included.
