A Wide Two Light Pendant with Holophane Style Glass
The Searchlight Handel 2 Light Pendant pairs a black metal bar frame with two holophane style ribbed glass shades, for a classic factory inspired look above a kitchen island or dining table. It is also a genuinely large fixture, with a black bar spanning 75cm and a drop that adjusts up to a maximum height of 120cm, so it is worth checking this against your space before ordering.
Materials and Finish
Made from mild steel and glass, finished in black. Each dome shaped shade is pressed from ribbed holophane style glass, which scatters the light rather than showing a bare bulb.
How It Works
It takes two E27 bulbs (not supplied) and is dimmable when fitted with dimmable bulbs and a compatible LED dimmer switch. As a Class I fixture it needs to be earthed. Installation should always be carried out by a qualified electrician. The drop height is adjustable at the point of installation.
Where It Works Best
Well suited to kitchens and dining rooms, particularly hung in pairs or as a single fitting above an island or a long table, where its width can stretch across the worktop rather than sitting over one spot.

Questions People Ask
How big is the Handel 2 Light Pendant?
Each glass shade measures 27cm high and 27cm across. The two shades are mounted on a black metal bar that spans 75cm, and the chains give a total drop that adjusts up to a maximum height of 120cm. Check these figures against your ceiling height and the space above your island or table before ordering, and get in touch with us if you would like help checking the fit.
What bulbs does it need?
It takes two E27 GLS bulbs, which are not included. Warm white bulbs suit the industrial style of the ribbed glass shades best.
Is this pendant dimmable?
Yes. It works with dimmable E27 bulbs paired with a compatible LED dimmer switch, such as a V-Pro rotary dimmer.
Can I fit this pendant myself?
No. This is a Class I fixture that must be earthed, and installation should always be carried out by a qualified electrician.
What does "holophane style" glass mean?
Holophane style glass has a ribbed, prismatic texture that spreads the light rather than showing a bare bulb. It is a nod to the glass shades used in early twentieth century factories and workshops, which is where this pendant's industrial look comes from.
