Fabula Tamworth 12 Light Linear Pendant - Medium Cylinder Shades with Clear Outer Glass - Polished Chrome, Chrome, Clear & Smoked Glass

Visual Rhythm Along the Entire Run

This twelve light pendant mixes polished chrome and plain chrome plates with alternating clear and smoked medium cylinder shades, creating a pattern that gives visual interest as your eye moves along the run rather than presenting a uniform repeated shape. The varied glass approach means different sections of the pendant catch the light differently depending on the time of day.

Choosing Your Finish

The two tone metalwork combined with the mixed glass creates a more contemporary feeling than a single finish would, and the variation helps break up the visual weight of a twelve light pendant so it doesn't feel imposing or heavy. The alternating clear and smoked sections introduce a subtle rhythm without being jarring or chaotic. This mixed approach is one of the advantages of the Tamworth modular system, where you can introduce variation rather than accepting that larger pendants must be uniform.

How It Works

Twelve G9 capsule bulbs are spread evenly across the frame, each held in its own fitting so the light distributes naturally along the entire run. The fitting is wired to Class I electrical standards, which means it needs an earth connection as part of installation. No adaptor is required, and a qualified electrician can wire it in as a standard ceiling light, though the scale means careful planning is needed for installation. The IP20 rating indicates this fitting is for dry interior use and not suitable for damp or wet environments.

Where It Works Best

This pendant is designed for a long kitchen island or a large open plan dining and living area where you want substantial light coverage without a central focal point. The visual variation introduced by the mixed glass means it remains interesting to look at even in daylight, and the generous light output makes it practical for cooking, working and eating. It's the kind of fitting that defines the space visually as well as providing illumination.

Design Details

The combination of polished chrome and plain chrome plates gives depth to the metalwork so it reads as considered rather than just functional. The alternating clear and smoked glass cylinders introduce visual texture without compromising the overall cohesiveness of the piece. The proportions of each element have been matched so that despite the variation, the pendant still feels designed as a single object.

Questions People Ask

Does the variation between clear and smoked glass affect the light output?
Not significantly. The clear sections let light through directly, while the smoked sections add a slight warmth and color. The overall brightness comes from the number and wattage of the bulbs rather than the glass type.

Is it obvious that this pendant has two different metal finishes?
Yes, that's intentional. The polished chrome is brighter and the plain chrome is more muted, so as you look along the run you see a visual pattern that helps break up the length of the fitting.

How much clearance do I need above this pendant for installation?
The maximum drop is 214cm, but you'll need additional space above to fit the ceiling rose and wiring. A qualified electrician will advise on exact clearance needed for your specific ceiling height.
