Searchlight Sidney 9 Light Chandelier - Chrome & Acrylic

A Statement Spiral Chandelier for Dining Rooms and Stairwells

The Sidney 9 light chandelier is a substantial statement fixture, combining a chrome frame with cascading tiers of clear acrylic prisms across 9 lights. Its scale and adjustable drop make it a natural centrepiece for a dining room or a stairwell with real height. At 67cm wide with a drop that adjusts from 135cm up to 250cm, this is one of the larger chandeliers in the range, so it is worth checking your ceiling height and fixing point before you order.

Materials and Finish

Made from mild steel and acrylic, finished in chrome.

How It Works

Takes 9 x E14 candle bulbs (not included), and can be dimmed with dimmable bulbs. This is a Class I fixture, so it needs to be earthed and connected by a competent person. The drop is adjustable between 135cm and a generous maximum of 250cm, making it suited to tall spaces.

Where It Works Best

Suited to dining rooms, hallways and stairwells, this large chrome and acrylic chandelier is at its best where there's real height to show off its scale. When lit, the acrylic prisms catch and scatter the light, so it often looks even more brilliant in person than in photos.
