A Sculptural Chandelier in Antique Brass and Ivory String Fabric
The Althorp 5 Light Pendant is a chandelier style ceiling light with a looped antique brass frame wrapped in ivory string fabric, a soft, textured take on a classic chandelier shape for living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms and hallways. It's also a genuinely large fixture, with a drop that adjusts from around 40cm up to 120cm, so it's worth checking that range against your ceiling height before ordering.
Materials and Finish
The frame is mild steel finished in antique brass, with the curved arms wrapped in string and topped with ivory fabric shades and plastic detailing at the fixings.
How It Works
It takes 5 x E14 golf ball bulbs, which aren't supplied. It's dimmable with dimmable bulbs and a suitable LED dimmer, such as a V-Pro rotary dimmer switch. The drop height is adjustable at installation, so it can be set to suit your ceiling. It's Class I, which means it needs an earth connection and should be installed by a qualified electrician.
Where It Works Best
This is a versatile chandelier style pendant that suits living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms and hallways, anywhere you want a soft, textural centrepiece rather than a sharp, modern fitting.
