A Statement Chandelier Sized for Grand Rooms
The Althorp 8 Light Pendant is a large scale chandelier style ceiling light with an antique brass frame wrapped in ivory string fabric, a statement piece for living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms and hallways. It measures 76cm wide and up to 120cm high including the chain, so it needs a room with enough space and ceiling height to let it hang properly.
Materials and Finish
Mild steel frame in an antique brass finish, with string wrapped ivory fabric shades.
How It Works
Takes 8 x E14 golf ball bulbs (not supplied) and is dimmable with dimmable bulbs using a suitable LED dimmer such as a V-Pro rotary dimmer switch. The drop height is adjustable at installation. It's Class I, which means it needs an earth connection and should be installed by a qualified electrician.
Where It Works Best
A statement chandelier for living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms and hallways. Given its scale, it works best on its own as the main focal point in a room, above a dining table or in a hallway with a high ceiling, rather than alongside other statement lighting nearby.

Questions People Ask
How big is the Althorp 8 Light Pendant?
The fixture itself is 76cm wide and 49cm high, with a maximum overall height of 120cm once the chain is fully extended. Because of its scale, it suits rooms with generous ceiling height and space around it.
What bulbs does it take and are they included?
It takes 8 x E14 golf ball bulbs, which are not supplied, so you will need to buy these separately.
Can I dim this light?
Yes. Fit dimmable E14 bulbs and use a suitable LED dimmer, such as a V-Pro rotary dimmer switch, to control the brightness.
Can the drop height be adjusted?
Yes, the drop height is adjustable at the time of installation, so an electrician can set it to suit your ceiling, up to the maximum height of 120cm.
Is this pendant suitable for bathrooms or outdoor use?
No. It's rated IP20, which means it's designed for dry, indoor rooms only, such as living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms and hallways.
