Fabula Tamworth 12 Light Linear Pendant - Round Shades with Inner Frosted Globes - Polished Chrome, Smoked & Frosted Glass

Soft Pools of Diffused Light Along a Run

This twelve light pendant uses round shades with frosted inner globes tucked inside smoked outer glass, hung from a polished chrome frame. The layered glass approach means the light that comes through is soft and diffused rather than hard or direct, making it a good choice where you want plenty of light but prefer a moody quality to the glow.

Choosing Your Finish

The combination of polished chrome and smoked glass creates a more contemporary feel than clear glass, and the frosted globe inside ensures the light spreads evenly rather than creating visible hot spots around the bulbs. Smoked glass is particularly popular in kitchens and dining areas where you want generous light without it feeling too clinical or bright. Alternative finishes are available across the Tamworth range if you'd prefer a different look or material combination.

How It Works

Twelve G9 capsule bulbs are fitted across the frame, each sitting behind a frosted globe and smoked glass combination that softens and diffuses the light. The fitting is wired to Class I electrical standards, meaning it needs an earth connection as part of installation. No adaptor is required, making it straightforward for a qualified electrician to wire in as a standard ceiling light. The IP20 rating means this fitting is suitable for dry indoor spaces and not for areas that are damp or likely to get wet.

Where It Works Best

Above a large kitchen island, across the ceiling of an open plan dining area, or over a long breakfast bar, this pendant provides generous light spread across a substantial area. The smoked glass and frosted globe combination makes it particularly effective in the evening, when you want good light for cooking or eating but don't want the starkness of very bright white light. It works equally well as background lighting in a living space or focused task lighting in a kitchen.

Design Details

The round shades with inner frosted globes represent a different visual approach to other configurations in the Tamworth range. The frosted globe does the practical work of diffusing the light evenly, while the smoked outer glass layer adds the color and warmth to the overall look. The polished chrome frame is proportioned to match the round shades, so the whole fitting has a cohesive, designed appearance.

Questions People Ask

Why do these round shades have frosted inner globes?
The frosted globe diffuses the light evenly across the shade so you don't see the bulb itself or a bright hot spot. The smoked outer glass then adds color and warmth to the light output.

Is the smoked glass tinted so much that it makes the kitchen dark?
No. The smoked glass is colored but transparent enough to let plenty of light through. With twelve bulbs along the run, you'll still have generous illumination for cooking and everyday use.

Can I use this pendant above a dining table as well as a kitchen?
Yes, it works equally well in both settings. The soft, slightly moody light it produces is particularly popular in dining areas where you want a pleasant atmosphere alongside good visibility.
