Fabula Sycamore Pendant with 15cm Round Dimpled Glass Shade - Satin Nickel, Clear & Satin Black

A Studied Take on Pendant Lighting

Dimpled glass catches the eye with its regular surface texture, and when paired with satin nickel and satin black as on this Sycamore pendant, the result is poised and contemporary. The 15cm shade sits on an E14 fitting and throws a soft, scattered glow that suits modern kitchens and dining areas where you want refined lighting without decoration for its own sake.

Choosing Your Finish

Satin nickel is restrained and works well with cooler colour palettes and cabinetry in greys, whites or blues. The matte black accents provide visual punctuation without introducing warmth. The dimpled texture in the glass does enough visual work on its own that the metal finishes can stay understated. Other finishes from the Sycamore range are available if you're drawn to warmer tones or different metal choices.

How It Works

This pendant takes a single E14 LED bulb running at 20W maximum. The dimples in the glass diffuse the light outward, creating general room illumination rather than a tight focused beam. The IP44 rating protects it against water splashing from any angle, so it can be safely installed in bathrooms as well as dry rooms. It uses Class II electrical construction, which means no earth connection is necessary during installation.

Where It Works Best

The IP44 protection suits installation in bathroom zones 1 and 2, provided you avoid direct shower spray. Our guide to bathroom lighting zones explains the boundaries and rules for each zone in detail. In everyday rooms, it's a natural choice for contemporary kitchens and dining spaces, particularly over islands or tables where you want multiple pendants hung at staggered heights to create rhythm along the ceiling.

Design Details

The virtue of dimpled glass with cool metalwork is its restraint. There's enough texture in the glass to make the pendant interesting to look at, while the nickel finish keeps everything feeling modern and unfussy. This approach works whether your kitchen is minimalist or more layered in its styling.

Questions People Ask

How does the dimpled texture affect brightness?
The indentations scatter light throughout the room instead of casting it straight down. You get softer, more distributed illumination, which is ideal for general kitchen or dining room lighting but less suited to task lighting directly over a work surface.

Why would I choose dimpled over smooth glass?
Dimpled glass provides visual texture and softens the light in a more forgiving way. Smooth glass can sometimes look a bit stark, while the texture adds interest and prevents glare.

Can this work in a bathroom?
Yes, it's IP44 rated, which means bathroom zones 1 and 2 are suitable. That includes walls around a sink or vanity unit, but not the shower enclosure itself.
