Fabula Hornbeam 3 Light Uplighter Pendant - 40cm Tiffany Shade - Blue & Orange

Dragonfly Glass That Glows at Night

Hornbeam centres its 40cm shade around a dragonfly design, rendered in blue and orange Tiffany glass with small crystal accents scattered through the mosaic work to catch the light. As an uplighter, the three E27 lamps sit beneath the shade and throw light upward through the coloured panels, which means the dragonfly pattern becomes visible and vibrant once the light is switched on. During the day it reads as a beautiful glass shade; at night it becomes a glowing focal point.

Choosing Your Finish

The combination of deep blue and warm orange in the Tiffany glass creates a feeling of movement and energy. The crystal fragments add tiny points of sparkle without being overwhelming. The pattern is detailed enough to be interesting from a distance but legible enough that the dragonfly is immediately recognizable.

How It Works

Three E27 lamps rated to 60W each power the shade, running the light upward so the ceiling becomes your primary light source rather than the fitting itself. This produces a softer, more atmospheric effect than a downlighter would give. It's dimmable if you pair it with dimmable bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch. The fitting is Class I wired, requiring an earth connection during installation. An adaptor is required for safe hanging. IP20 rating means it stays in dry interior spaces only, away from bathrooms or damp areas.

Where It Works Best

This works as a centrepiece in a living room, dining room or bedroom where the coloured glass will be seen from multiple angles. The 40cm size means it has real presence, so it suits rooms with generous proportions. A hallway with good ceiling height can also work, though the height and drop should be checked first.

Design Details

The Tiffany glass panels are individual pieces set into a resin framework, paired with iron and K9 crystal elements. The dragonfly motif is hand cut, so slight variations between fixtures are normal and add to the handmade quality. The material choices mean the light travels through glass before reaching the room, filtering both colour and warmth into the space.

Questions People Ask

What is the dragonfly design like?
It's a hand cut Tiffany mosaic in blue and orange glass, with small crystal pieces scattered through to add sparkle. The detail is visible both when the light is off during the day and especially when the light is on at night.

Is the light bright or atmospheric?
Because it's an uplighter with a coloured shade, it's designed more for atmosphere than brightness. The light spreads across your ceiling and walls softly rather than concentrating directly below. It's a mood light rather than a task light.

Can I use this in any size room?
The 40cm diameter and long drop mean it works best in rooms with decent ceiling height and generous proportions. Smaller rooms might feel crowded by it. Check the space before ordering.
