Fabula Epping Pendant Frame - Polished Nickel - Frame Only

A Clean Modern Pendant Base Ready for Your Chosen Shade

This polished nickel pendant frame has a pared back, contemporary silhouette that works beautifully as a single pendant or grouped in multiples over an island or dining table. Sold as the frame only, it's designed to be paired with a shade of your choosing, so you have complete control over the final look. The nickel finish is hardwearing and reads comfortably in both modern and more traditional settings.

Choosing Your Finish

Polished nickel is a cool, silvery metal that sits comfortably across many decorative styles. It's practical too—the finish is tough and resists tarnishing, so it stays looking fresh with minimal care. If you prefer a warmer metallic tone, the same frame is available in other finishes across the range, giving you flexibility in how the metal reads alongside your chosen shade.

How It Works

The frame holds a single E27 GLS lamp (60W maximum) behind a shade of your choice. It's wired to Class I electrical standards, so it requires an earth connection. The fitting is dimmable when used with dimmable bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch. Note that an adaptor is required depending on the shade you select, so confirm compatibility before ordering your shade.

Where It Works Best

This is an indoor pendant designed for ceiling mounting in kitchens, dining rooms, living rooms, bedrooms and hallways. It works particularly well clustered in groups of two or three over a kitchen island or dining table, where multiple pendants create visual rhythm and good task lighting.

Design Details

The frame itself is iron and aluminium, kept minimal so the shade becomes the star. There are no fussy details—just a clean metal cup and suspension system that lets your chosen shade take centre stage. That simplicity is what makes it so flexible; it reads differently depending on whether you pair it with a fabric shade, a glass shade or a more sculptural option.

Questions People Ask

What shade should I choose?
Any shade with a standard collar fitting will work with an adaptor. Look for a 28 to 30cm diameter shade for proportions that suit the frame, though larger or smaller shades work too—it depends on your space and taste.

Can I group these together?
Absolutely. Multiple Epping frames look striking over a kitchen island or dining table, creating a sense of rhythm and plenty of light.

Do I need a special adaptor?
Likely yes, depending on your chosen shade's collar size. We'll confirm compatibility when you order, so you won't be caught out.
