Fabula Tamworth 8 Light Telescopic Semi Flush - Medium Cylinder Shades - French Gold & Chrome Lined Glass

Gold Frame with Mirrored Glass

Chrome lined glass sits within medium cylinder shades on this Tamworth semi flush, creating a mirrored surface that throws back shine and sparkle alongside the actual light. Arranged around a French gold telescopic frame, the combination of reflective glass and metalwork gives the fitting more visual interest and glitter than plain clear or smoked shades would provide.

Choosing Your Finish

The chrome lined glass is the unique selling point here, rather than plain glass, the interior surface is treated to reflect light, so the shades themselves become part of the light effect rather than just containers for it. Paired with the French gold frame, this creates warmth from the metal and sparkle from the glass, a more decorative combination than the range's other options.

How It Works

Eight G9 lamps sit within the cylinder shades, wired to Class I electrical standards with an earth connection as part of installation. The telescopic frame allows vertical adjustment of the drop. Dimmable bulbs and a dimmer switch will enable dimming of this fitting. IP20 protection means it's for indoor, dry spaces only.

Where It Works Best

The semi flush mounting suits any room with standard ceiling heights, keeping the fixture close overhead. At 82cm diameter it's substantial enough for dining rooms, living rooms and hallways, and the chrome lined glass makes it particularly suitable for spaces where you want a light that's a design feature as much as a functional fitting. Bedrooms and kitchens both work well.

Design Details

Iron and chrome lined glass form the core of this piece, part of the Tamworth collection. The craftsmanship here is in the specification of materials, the decision to use chrome lined rather than plain glass fundamentally changes how the light behaves, moving it from purely functional to decorative. The gold frame complements this by adding warmth to what might otherwise read as purely reflective.

Questions People Ask

What does chrome lined mean?
The inside surface of the glass is treated with a thin chrome coating, creating a mirror effect. This reflects light and gives the shades a sparkle and shine that plain glass can't match.

Will this be too sparkly?
The effect is subtle rather than glaring, the gold frame balances the reflectivity and the overall look is warm rather than icy or harsh.

How is this different from the clear or smoked versions?
Clear glass lets light through clearly, smoked glass absorbs light for a moodier feel, and chrome lined glass reflects and sparkles. All three use the same gold frame and mounting system, so it's a visual choice based on the mood you want.
