Fabula Tamworth 3 Light Telescopic Semi Flush - Medium Cylinder Shades - French Gold & Frosted Glass

Lower Ceiling, Full Style

This telescopic semi flush fitting brings the Tamworth range within reach of rooms where a full pendant would hang uncomfortably low. The frame compresses to a maximum 82cm drop, holding three medium frosted glass shades on French gold hardware that sits closer to the ceiling without compromising on visual presence.

Choosing Your Finish

French gold is a warm, slightly muted metal tone that suits contemporary interiors as readily as slightly more traditional schemes. The frosted glass shades soften the light output and add texture visually, preventing the fitting from looking too stark or industrial despite its proximity to the ceiling.

How It Works

Three G9 capsule bulbs up to 10W each (not included) provide the light source. Class I wired, the fitting requires an earth connection and works with dimmable bulbs when paired with a compatible dimmer. The telescopic frame adjusts to suit your ceiling height, making installation straightforward even when space overhead is limited.

Where It Works Best

Hallways, landings and bedrooms with standard ceiling heights all suit this fitting well. Living rooms and kitchens benefit too, especially when you want the look of a statement fitting without needing the vertical clearance a pendant would demand. It's particularly useful in converted spaces or cottages where ceiling height is fixed and generous drop isn't an option.

Design Details

Semi flush fittings by nature sit between a wall light and a full pendant, offering a different proportion and visual balance. The frosted glass is a practical choice as well as an aesthetic one, spreading light more evenly outward rather than creating a single hotspot directly below.

Questions People Ask

Is this really as impactful as a full pendant?
Not in drop distance, but in visual impact it punches above its weight thanks to the diameter spread and the frosted shades. From standing below it looks far more substantial than the small drop would suggest.

Can I adjust how close it sits to the ceiling?
Yes, the telescopic frame means you can set it anywhere between fully compressed and fully extended up to that 82cm maximum, so you have control over the exact positioning.

Would this work in a small bathroom?
It would certainly fit space wise, though IP20 rating means it's not suitable for areas where it might encounter splashing water. Stick to dry rooms like hallways, bedrooms or living areas.
