Fabula Tamworth 8 Light Telescopic Semi Flush - Short Cylinder Shades - French Gold & Copper Glass

A Rounded Ceiling Light with Real Warmth

This Tamworth semi flush features eight G9 bulbs in shorter cylinder shades, giving the overall fitting a rounder, more compact silhouette than other Tamworth semi flush styles. Finished in French gold with rich copper toned glass, it creates a wonderfully warm glow once lit, and the telescopic drop means you can set it to suit whatever ceiling height you're working with.

Choosing Your Finish

French gold paired with copper glass is a warm combination that feels both contemporary and timeless. The copper tone isn't bright—it's more of a deep amber—which means the light takes on a genuinely cosy quality rather than feeling stark. Other finishes in the Tamworth semi flush range offer different moods if you prefer, but this one is all about warmth and presence.

How It Works

Eight G9 capsule bulb holders give you flexibility to use all eight at once or dial it back to fewer bulbs depending on the atmosphere you want. The telescopic mechanism adjusts to suit different ceiling heights without rewiring. No bulbs supplied. Dimmable with compatible dimmable bulbs and dimmer. Class I electrical, requiring an earth connection. IP20 rating for dry indoor use only.

Where It Works Best

The shorter shade design makes this semi flush work particularly well in dining rooms, living areas and hallways where you want presence without the visual weight of longer pendant shades. At 85cm diameter it's generously sized, so it suits rooms with decent ceiling width. The warm copper glass makes it especially nice in spaces where you spend time in the evening and want the light to feel inviting.

Design Details

The appeal of this version comes down to the shorter cylinder shades which give the whole fitting a rounder, friendlier appearance. The Tamworth range is known for combining simple forms with interesting glass work, and here the copper tone does most of the visual heavy lifting, meaning the metal frame can stay understated. The result feels both substantial and refined.

Questions People Ask

How is this different from the medium cylinder version?
The shorter shades give this version a rounder, more compact appearance, which changes how the light distributes and gives the whole fitting a slightly friendlier feel. The copper glass also tends to throw warmer light than smoked glass.

Will the telescopic feature work in my room?
As long as your ceiling has a standard wiring point and reasonable height, an electrician can adjust the drop to suit. The telescopic mechanism is flexible enough to work in rooms with varying ceiling heights.

What if I want less light?
You can use fewer of the eight bulbs, or fit dimmable bulbs and use a dimmer switch to adjust the overall brightness to whatever suits the time of day and your mood.
