Description
The Valparaiso is a round ceiling light that sits close to the ceiling, with a polished chrome band holding stepped tiers of clear, faceted glass drops. The body is steel in a chrome finish and the drops are brilliant glass, so every cut face catches the light and scatters small points of sparkle across the room. It measures 58cm across and 30.5cm high. Eleven E14 lamp holders sit hidden among the tiers, each taking a bulb of up to 40W, and the bulbs are not included. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs indoors in a dry room, away from bathrooms and outdoor walls.
Fit it in a living room, a dining room, a hallway or a main bedroom where you want one fitting to do the work of several. Because it sits close to the ceiling rather than hanging on a long drop, it gives a generous spread of glass overhead while leaving more headroom than a pendant of similar size. At 58cm across it has the presence to anchor a dining table or the centre of a large living space, and the clear glass and chrome sit happily with both classic and modern schemes. With eleven bulbs it spreads light from many points rather than from a single bulb.
There is no switch on the light itself: it is controlled from your existing wall switch. It runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains, and as a wired-in mains light it is installed by a qualified electrician. The packed weight is 21.878KG, so this is a substantial piece, and the installation instructions come as a PDF download. Choose E14 bulbs of 40W or less for each of the eleven holders, and pick a colour temperature that suits the room.

Frequently Asked
Can I use this ceiling light in a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs in dry indoor rooms only, so keep it away from bathrooms, outdoor walls and anywhere damp.
Which bulbs does it need?
It takes 11 E14 bulbs, each up to a maximum of 40W. The bulbs are not included, so buy them alongside the light.
How big is it?
It measures 58cm across and 30.5cm high, so it sits fairly close to the ceiling while still showing off its tiers of glass.
What material are the drops?
The drops are clear brilliant glass, cut into facets that catch the light, held by a steel body with a polished chrome finish.
Does it have its own switch?
No, there is no switch on the light itself. It works from your existing wall switch, just like a standard ceiling light.
