Bellini chandelier in oxidised bronze and cut glass, 6 lights, 67.6 cm

A cut glass basket and a crown of candle holders

A steel ring carries six curved arms ending in candle holders; a drop hangs beneath each one. At the centre, rows of K9 cut glass beads descend from a small crown to a faceted ball, forming a basket. The oxidised bronze finish, applied by hand, gives the metal an aged brown patina.

Six E14 candle bulbs

You will need six E14 bulbs, 60 W maximum each, to be purchased separately. Clear LED candle bulbs make the facets of the glass sparkle more than a frosted model. With dimmable bulbs, a dimmer lets you move from reception lighting to a soft dinner glow.

Weight, chain and ceiling height

The chandelier is 68.9 cm high without its chain; with the chain, the total height can be adjusted from 81.5 to 234 cm. At 8.82 kg, it requires a solid ceiling fixing. Above a table, aim for 65 to 75 cm between the bottom of the chandelier and the tabletop; a table 1.20 m wide or more suits it well.
