Fabula Chelmsford 16 Light Pendant - Polished Chrome, Smoked & Frosted Glass

A Cluster of Glass Tubes in Smoked and Frosted Tones

Chelmsford is a sputnik-style pendant made up of sixteen narrow glass tubes arranged in a striking three dimensional cluster around a polished chrome frame. The mix of smoked and frosted glass tones means each tube catches light differently, creating depth and visual interest from every angle. It is a genuine statement piece rather than just a light source, and it performs especially well in spaces where the ceiling is high enough to let the full form read properly.

Choosing Your Finish

The frame is polished chrome, a bright reflective finish that contrasts beautifully with the softer tones of the smoked and frosted glass tubes. If chrome isn't your preference, other pendant designs across the range come in different metallic finishes, so you can find something to match your existing lighting or room scheme.

How It Works

Sixteen G9 capsule lamp holders are wired throughout the frame, giving a wide spread of light that fills the space evenly rather than creating a single hot spot. The fitting is wired to Class I electrical standards, which means an earth connection is needed during installation. The IP20 rating means it's designed for indoor use only and shouldn't be exposed to moisture or damp areas.

Where It Works Best

This is an indoor fitting that really shines in spaces with generously sized ceilings. A kitchen island, dining table or open plan living area are ideal spots where there's room for the pendant to hang properly and the wide light spread can be appreciated. The statement look suits contemporary interiors especially, though the chrome frame works in more traditional schemes as well.

Design Details

The craftsmanship is in the cluster itself. Each tube is positioned to create a three dimensional form that reads as sculptural from below, while the polished chrome frame sits at the heart holding it all in place. The combination of glass tones, from clear through to fully smoked, means there's enough visual variation within a single fitting to feel interesting without being chaotic. The sputnik style is modular and graphic, which is why it works across so many different interior approaches.
