Valora 15 Light Metal Chain Veil Chandelier - Black

The Valora is a 1.4m linear chandelier built around a structured steel frame draped in cascading black metal chain veils. Fifteen lamps are arranged across the body, twelve 3.5W G9 capsules and three 5W GU10 LED spots, casting light through the curtain of fine chains. The frame is finished in matching black, with the chain layers cut at varied lengths so the lower edge breaks into a fringed, irregular silhouette.

Designed for long dining tables, kitchen islands, hospitality bars and double-height foyers, the 140cm length and 75cm drop suit rooms with a minimum ceiling height of around 2.7m. The fitting hangs from twin chrome chains that take the 48kg weight, and the 150cm cable allows the drop to be set during installation. The combination of G9 ambient lamps and GU10 downward spots gives both diffuse glow through the chains and direct task light onto the surface below.

The black-on-black palette grounds the design and reads as sculptural rather than ornamental, fitting interiors built around dark stone, concrete, smoked oak or richly textured upholstery. The chain veils move subtly with airflow, softening the otherwise rigid frame, and the layered depth means the chandelier reads differently from each side of the room. At 48kg, installation requires a structurally sound fixing point and is a two-person job.

What ceiling height does the Valora need?

The fitting itself is 75cm tall, with a 150cm cable and twin chandelier chains that allow the overall drop to be adjusted during installation. For a dining table or island the chandelier typically sits 750-850mm above the surface, which works comfortably in rooms with a ceiling height of 2.7m or above. Lower ceilings can still take the Valora if the chains are shortened on fitting.

What bulbs does it take and are they included?

The Valora uses a combination of twelve G9 capsule bulbs at 3.5W each and three GU10 LED spots at 5W each, fifteen lamps in total. Bulb inclusion varies by stock batch; please contact us before ordering if confirmation is needed. Most installers pair this fitting with warm-white 2700K-3000K LEDs to match the moody character of the black chains.

How is it installed given the weight?

At 48kg the Valora requires a structurally sound fixing point, typically a joist or properly rated ceiling brace box rated for the load. Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician and is a two-person job to support the frame while the chandelier chains and cable are connected.

What size table or room suits a 140cm chandelier?

The 140cm length sits well over dining tables of 200cm or longer, kitchen islands of similar length, and large bar or hospitality counters. In open-plan rooms or double-height foyers the linear footprint anchors a long axis better than a round chandelier of equivalent visual weight.
