Fabula Tamworth Single Pendant - Short Cylinder Shade - French Gold & Clear Glass

Clean Lines and Bright Light in a Short Cylinder

This pendant pairs a French gold frame with a short cylinder shade in clear glass, creating a neat, tailored look. The straight sides of the shade give it a more structured silhouette than the rounder options in the range, while the clear glass ensures light stays bright and unfiltered. It's a design that works equally well as a minimal accent or as part of a larger grouped lighting scheme.

Choosing Your Finish

French gold and clear glass is an understated combination that suits both period and contemporary interiors. The same cylinder design comes in other glass colours across the range, so if you want to add a touch of colour while keeping the tailored shape, you have options.

How It Works

The straight sided cylinder has a G9 lamp holder at its centre, firing light through the clear glass into the room. The compact form means light spreads nicely without excessive spread, so it's good for both general and more focused ambient lighting. Class I electrical standards apply, so an earth connection is needed at installation. It's dimmable if you use dimmable bulbs and a compatible dimmer. IP20 means it's for dry indoor spaces only, so keep it away from bathrooms and anywhere subject to moisture.

Where It Works Best

The neat proportions work beautifully above a kitchen island or dining table, where the clear glass gives uncoloured light for cooking and eating. It's equally at home in smaller spaces like a hallway or breakfast nook where a larger rounded shade might feel too bulky. The gold frame adds a bit of warmth, so it bridges the gap between minimalist clear glass and something with more personality.

Design Details

The engineering is straightforward but effective. A cylinder of clear glass held by a simple gold frame, with no embellishment or complication. The appeal is in the proportions and the clarity of the concept. The bulb isn't hidden but isn't emphasized either, so the whole thing reads as clean and contemporary without being cold.

Questions People Ask

How is this different from the round shades?
The cylinder has straight sides, giving it a more tailored, structured look. It's a bit neater and more architectural than the rounder designs.

Will clear glass work in a traditional kitchen?
Yes. The gold frame adds warmth and a bit of vintage quality, so the whole fitting reads as classic rather than stark or modern.

Is this smaller than other Tamworth pendants?
The cylinder shade is compact in proportion, though all the Tamworth pendants are sold as single units, so scale is adjustable through hanging height and grouping.
