Torino 3 Light Crystal Chandelier 46cm - French Gold

The Torino is a 46cm crystal chandelier with three E14 candle-style bulb holders on scrolled French gold arms, each arm dressed with cut crystal droplets and Asfour maple leaf pendants. A central column runs from the ceiling cup through the frame, decorated with crystal beads and a spiral of small chain links that catch and refract light from the bulbs. The French gold finish sits between polished brass and antique brass in tone, with a warm metallic sheen that darkens slightly in recessed details.

Designed for rooms where a full-sized chandelier would overwhelm the ceiling height or floor space, the Torino works in bedrooms with standard 2.4m ceilings, dining alcoves, small entrance halls and over occasional tables. The adjustable drop ranges from 800mm to 1750mm, allowing the fitting to be set higher in lower-ceilinged rooms or lower over a table where the crystals can be seen at eye level. Each of the three arms curves outward from the central column, creating a balanced spread without needing excessive width.

The Asfour crystals used throughout the fitting are machine-cut lead crystal with a high refractive index, so they throw stronger rainbow flashes than acrylic or glass alternatives when the bulbs are lit. The maple leaf shape appears on the larger pendants that hang from the lower tier, while smaller octagonal droplets dress the scrolled arms and the bobeches beneath each bulb holder. The chandelier weighs 6kg fully assembled, requiring a ceiling fixing capable of supporting that load plus a small safety margin.

What bulbs does the Torino take?

The chandelier takes three E14 small Edison screw bulbs, sold separately. Most users pair this with 4-6W LED candle bulbs in warm white (2700K) to complement the French gold finish. Maximum wattage per bulb is 60W.

Is it dimmable?

Yes, provided you fit dimmable E14 bulbs and pair them with a compatible dimmer switch. The chandelier frame itself does not restrict dimming — compatibility depends on the bulbs and dimmer combination you choose.

What ceiling height does it need?

The minimum 800mm drop suits standard 2.4m ceiling heights when hung in a bedroom or hallway where you walk beneath it. Over a table or in a dining alcove, the 1750mm maximum drop allows the chandelier to be lowered so the crystals sit closer to eye level for maximum visual impact.

How is the crystal cleaned?

Switch off at the mains before cleaning. Wipe each crystal droplet individually with a dry microfibre cloth, or use a barely-damp cloth with distilled water for stubborn marks. Avoid spraying cleaner directly onto the chandelier, as it can dull the French gold finish or leave residue on the metal frame.
