Description
The Sweet Olive is a 3 light chandelier built around hand-forged olive leaf metalwork finished in gilded gold, with three candle-style E14 fittings on curved arms and a central stem topped with a leaf cluster. Two crystal medallions sit below the lower leaf accents, catching and refracting light from the candle bulbs above. The frame measures 508mm diameter and 660mm in fitting height, with an adjustable drop from 813mm minimum to 2591mm maximum via the included 1829mm chain.
Designed for dining rooms, entrance halls and living rooms with ceiling heights of 2.6m or above, the chandelier works best positioned 700-900mm above a dining table or centred in a hall where the lower leaf details and crystal accents can be appreciated from multiple angles. The three-arm configuration provides balanced light distribution across a table seating 4-6, while the candle bulb format casts a warm, diffused glow upwards through the upper leaf cluster and downwards through the lower metalwork.
Each olive leaf is individually shaped from metal and hand-patinated in a gilded gold finish that shows tonal variation across the surface, with darker bronze tones in the recesses and brighter gold on the raised edges of each leaf. The three candle arms curve out from a central ribbed collar that echoes classical wrought-iron detailing, while the lower leaf clusters are positioned asymmetrically to create a naturalistic, branch-like silhouette. The crystal medallions add a decorative accent without overwhelming the organic metalwork.
The fitting accepts three E14 candle bulbs up to 60W each, sold separately. Most installations use warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K colour temperature to complement the warm gold finish and create a soft ambient light suited to dining and entertaining.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does it take?
The Sweet Olive takes three E14 small Edison screw candle bulbs up to 60W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users fit warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W at 2700K-3000K to match the gilded gold finish.
What ceiling height is needed?
The minimum drop of 813mm works in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.6m or above when positioning the chandelier 700-900mm above a dining table. The chain can be shortened or extended on installation to suit ceiling heights up to 3.4m.
Is the gilded gold finish consistent across all pieces?
No. Each chandelier is hand-patinated, so the gilded gold finish shows tonal variation between individual pieces and across different areas of the same fitting. Darker bronze tones typically appear in the recesses of the leaf detailing, with brighter gold highlights on raised edges.
What size table does it suit?
The 508mm diameter works best over rectangular dining tables 1200-1800mm long or round tables 1000-1400mm diameter, typically seating 4-6. The three-arm configuration distributes light evenly across this table size without leaving darker zones at the ends.
