Description
Our Vellmere large pendant pairs a clear glass shade with warm antique brass, so the metalwork carries the colour while the glass keeps the fitting feeling open. The shade is 250mm in diameter and the drop adjusts from 570mm to 1675mm, giving you real scope over an island, a table or a stairwell. One E27 screw fit lamp rated at 10W does the work, and with clear glass the lamp remains visible, so a filament style LED is the natural pick. Put it on a compatible dimmer switch with a dimmable lamp and you can take the level right down for evenings.
The generous drop range makes this a good choice for hanging in pairs above a kitchen island, in a line of three along a longer worktop, or singly over a bedside table or a hall console. Brass warms cooler schemes, so it settles happily against grey and off white walls, oak surfaces and painted cabinetry. Clear glass does not screen the light, so expect a bright spread with some sparkle rather than a diffused wash, which suits dining tables and prep areas where you want to see properly. It is a straightforward ceiling light for anyone building a warm, plain scheme.
The body is metal in an antique brass finish, supplied with a ceiling plate and adjustable suspension in the same finish, and the glass is plain and clear. To keep it looking right, turn the power off, let the lamp cool, then dust the glass with a soft cloth and wipe the brass with a barely damp one, avoiding polishes and abrasive cleaners that can dull the surface. The fitting is rated IP20 for dry indoor use and needs an earthed supply. Smaller Vellmere pendants and a bright nickel finish run alongside it if you are lighting more than one room.

Frequently Asked
What materials are used?
Clear glass with metalwork and a ceiling plate finished in antique brass.
How should I clean the brass?
Isolate the power, let the lamp cool, then wipe with a barely damp cloth and dry it off. Brass polish and abrasive creams will mark the finish.
What size is it?
The shade measures 250mm across and the drop adjusts from 570mm to 1675mm, so it can hang low over a table or sit higher in a walkway.
What lamp fitting does it use?
A single E27 screw fit lamp up to 10W, with a filament style LED suiting the clear glass.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20 for dry indoor rooms only.
Can I hang more than one together?
Yes. Two or three spaced along an island or a long table is a common way to use this size.
