Fabula Douglas Single Pendant - Walnut & Polished Nickel

An Open Lantern Shape With a Warm Wooden Touch

Douglas takes the classic open lantern shape and gives it a mix of materials, a walnut effect finish running alongside polished nickel detailing on the frame. That contrast between wood tone and cool metal carries all the way up to the ceiling plate, so the whole fitting feels considered rather than assembled from mismatched parts. Left open rather than glazed, the bulb itself becomes part of the look.

Choosing Your Finish

This particular version brings together a walnut effect wood tone with polished nickel, giving it a slightly warmer feel than an all metal lantern would have. Other finish combinations may exist elsewhere across the Douglas range, so it's worth having a look if you want to match tones already in the room.

How It Works

It's designed for a single E27 bulb, up to 20W, and this isn't supplied so you'll want to pick one that gives the warmth or brightness you're after. Dimming is possible, but only when you use both a dimmable bulb and a dimmer switch that's compatible with it. Electrically it's built to Class I standards and needs an earth connection, and its IP20 rating means it's intended for dry indoor rooms rather than anywhere that gets damp or splashed.

Where It Works Best

Its compact size and lantern shape make it an easy fit above a kitchen worktop, over a small dining table, or as a single hanging feature in a hallway. It has enough character to stand alone rather than needing to be part of a cluster, so it works well anywhere you want a single, well defined point of light with some visual interest.

Design Details

Douglas takes its cue from traditional lantern shapes but strips them back to a simpler open frame, letting the mix of wood effect and metal do the visual work rather than glazing or ornate detailing. The square profile of the frame, at 16cm by 16cm, gives it a slightly architectural feel compared with a rounder lantern design.
