Description
The Spectral is a 3-light cluster pendant featuring three blown glass shades suspended from a 400mm circular white canopy on adjustable cables. Each shade is made from acid-etched white glass with a raised vertical fold pattern running the length of the body, diffusing light softly while adding texture to the surface. The three pendants hang at different heights — 200mm, 235mm and 260mm — creating a staggered arrangement that works over dining tables and kitchen islands.
Designed for rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or higher, the cluster configuration spreads light across a wider area than a single pendant while keeping the visual weight concentrated in one ceiling position. The three E27 fittings (bulbs sold separately) allow for independent bulb choice, so you can use warm-white LEDs for ambient dining light or cooler colour temperatures for task-focused kitchen workspaces. The matt white metal canopy and cable suspension system fit standard UK ceiling roses.
The acid-etched finish on the glass softens direct glare from the bulbs and gives each shade a semi-translucent appearance when lit, turning the glass itself into the diffuser. The raised fold pattern adds definition to the otherwise simple cylindrical and conical forms, catching ambient light during the day and creating subtle shadow lines when the pendants are switched on. The white-on-white finish pairs cleanly with Scandinavian, coastal and contemporary interiors where a lighter palette dominates.
The Spectral carries an IP20 rating, making it suitable for indoor dry locations only. The pendant is dimmable when paired with compatible dimmable E27 bulbs and an appropriate dimmer switch. Ideal Lux provides a 5-year warranty covering manufacturing defects on the metalwork and glass components.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does the Spectral take?
The pendant has three E27 (Edison screw) fittings. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with 6-10W warm-white LED bulbs at 2700K-3000K for dining and kitchen island lighting.
Is it dimmable?
Yes, when fitted with dimmable E27 bulbs and connected to a compatible dimmer switch. Non-dimmable LED bulbs will not dim and may flicker if connected to a dimmer circuit.
Can the drop heights be adjusted?
The three pendants are factory-set at 200mm, 235mm and 260mm drops. The cable lengths can be shortened during installation by looping excess cable inside the canopy, but the staggered arrangement is fixed by the cable exit points on the canopy.
What ceiling height is needed?
The 200-260mm drop range works in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above. For dining tables, position the lowest pendant approximately 700-800mm above the table surface. Kitchen islands typically allow the pendants to sit slightly higher at 800-900mm clearance.
