Fabula Hornbeam 3 Light Uplighter Pendant - 40cm Tiffany Shade - Purple & Pink

Dragonflies and Coloured Light

This pendant holds a 40cm Tiffany style shade in hand worked glass, showing a classic dragonfly pattern picked out in purple and pink with inset crystals catching highlights. Three lights sit inside the shade in an uplighter arrangement, directing light upward through the coloured glass so the room is washed in the shade's colours rather than receiving direct downward illumination. The effect is particularly striking in the evening when the coloured glass comes to life.

Choosing Your Finish

The purple and pink glass combination has a handcrafted, slightly romantic quality that works well in bedrooms, living rooms and dining spaces where you want the fitting itself to be a decorative feature. If this colour combination isn't quite your preference, the Hornbeam range offers other Tiffany shades in different colourways to choose from.

How It Works

The pendant takes three E27 bulbs rated to 60W maximum, supplied separately. The three lights are arranged as an uplighter, meaning they direct their glow upward through the coloured shade rather than downward, creating an ambient wash of light. It's dimmable when used with dimmable bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch, allowing you to adjust the colour saturation and mood. The fitting is Class I wired, requiring an earth connection as part of installation.

Where It Works Best

This fitting is designed for dry indoor areas and works particularly well as a statement pendant in living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms and hallways where it can hang at eye level or above. The detail and colour in the glasswork shine through when the light is on, so position it where you can appreciate the dragonfly pattern and enjoy the coloured ambient light it creates.

Design Details

The Tiffany style shade is the real focus of this pendant. Each piece of glass is hand worked into the dragonfly design, a pattern that has remained popular for generations because of its balance between decorative detail and visual lightness. The combination of purple and pink glass with small crystal insets adds depth to the design without making it feel busy or overwhelming.

Questions People Ask

What is a Tiffany shade?
A Tiffany shade is made from hand worked pieces of coloured glass assembled together to create a pattern or design. In this case it's the classic dragonfly motif. Each shade is slightly individual because of the handmade process.

Why is it an uplighter?
Because the three bulbs point upward through the shade rather than downward. This creates an ambient wash of coloured light rather than direct downward illumination, which suits decorative shades especially well.
