The metalwork is finished in rustic gold with hand-painted detailing that gives tonal variation across the surface, softening the reflective quality compared to polished or bright gold finishes. Each arm holds an E14 bulb fitting (bulbs sold separately), and the amber glass diffuses light into a warm, mellow tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for dining rooms, entrance halls and living spaces with ceiling heights of 2.7m or above, the chandelier provides ambient rather than task lighting. The 78cm diameter suits rooms approximately 4m x 4m or larger without overwhelming the space. The curving arms create visual movement and a sense of organic flow, while the frosted amber shades prevent glare and soften the light output. The chandelier is dimmable when paired with dimmable E14 bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rustic gold finish is achieved through hand-painting rather than electroplating, which means the tone and depth vary slightly across different sections of the metalwork — this is a deliberate characteristic of the artisanal finish, not a defect. The amber glass shades are hand-blown, so each one shows minor differences in the frosted texture and exact hue. At 7.5kg, the chandelier requires secure fixing to a ceiling joist or suitable ceiling anchor rated for the weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Tentacle's design references classical European chandelier forms but avoids heavy ornamentation, making it adaptable to both traditional and contemporary transitional interiors. The warm amber and rustic gold palette pairs comfortably with wood tones, warm greys, cream and terracotta schemes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour Finish 1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRustic Gold\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShade Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAmber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e780mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e620mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNumber Of Bulbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLamp Socket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE14\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDependent On Lamps Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVoltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e220-240V~50\/60Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimmable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes - Dimmable Lamps Required\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.5KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 Year\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat bulbs does the Tentacle take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chandelier takes five E14 (small Edison screw) bulbs, sold separately.
