ثريا كريستالية وردية لطاولة الطعام، من 70 إلى 92 cm

Cut crystal on a tiered frame, catching the light and scattering it across the ceiling. Made to be the thing you look at.

Switch it on and the ceiling stops being the empty part of the room. Light leaves the candle-style lamps, travels through cup after cup of sculpted crystal, and lands on the walls in small bright pieces that move as you cross the floor. What reaches you is soft rather than glaring, and the brilliance you notice is reflected, not raw. Over a dining table it pulls the whole setting together once the daylight goes. In a bedroom it warms the last hour of the evening. In a living room or an entryway it gives the eye somewhere to land the second the door opens, and the room feels finished in a way it did not before.

The frame sweeps outward in curved arms, tier above tier, so the shape stays graceful instead of heavy at the top. Each arm ends in a crystal cup, and between the arms hang faceted drops and fine strands of beads that take the warm light and pass it on, which is why the fixture never looks entirely still. The crystal is translucent pink, and that is where a very classical piece turns playful: traditional proportions, a traditional candle arrangement, an unexpected colour running through all of it. Only two materials are used, crystal and metal, cut and fitted with the care that shows up in the small joins most brands hurry past. It is decorative and balanced at the same time, at ease against panelled walls and flat modern plaster alike, and built to stay in the room for years rather than a season.

Four sizes let you match it to the ceiling you actually have. Six lights measure ∅70 cm (27.6″) and draw 30 W for around 3000 lm. Eight lights measure ∅75 cm (29.5″) at 40 W and 4000 lm. Ten lights measure ∅80 cm (31.5″) at 50 W and 5000 lm. Fifteen lights measure ∅92 cm (36.2″) at 60 W and 6000 lm. Everything sits inside a 20–90 W band and runs on AC 90–260 V. Weight climbs with the frame, from 3 kg at the smallest to 18 kg at the widest, so confirm your ceiling fixing before you choose the large one. The E14 bulbs are included — six, eight, ten or fifteen of them, depending on which size you take — and they are replaceable rather than sealed in, giving warm white at 3000K and around 50,000 hours of service. The fixture is not dimmable.

Installation is the ordinary chandelier routine. The mounting bracket fixes to the electrical box, and the junction box you need is supplied with it. The canopy measures ∅12 cm (4.7″), and the cord runs to 30 cm (11.8″) at a fixed length rather than an adjustable one, so the piece is designed to sit high and close to the ceiling. Wiring is permanent, with no plug. Certification covers UL, CCC, CE, CQC, EMC, FCC, GS, LVD, PSE, RoHS, SAA and VDE.

This fitting hangs from a ceiling outlet box and is wired into your mains supply. Work out your hanging height before you connect anything - it is far easier to set the drop with the wiring still loose than to redo it afterwards.

Before you start

• Mounting: the fitting secures to a standard ceiling outlet box. The bracket and fixings are in the box.
• Weight: check that your outlet box and ceiling can carry the fitting. Weights are listed in the Product Specifications above. A heavy chandelier may need a brace fitted between the joists.
• Hanging height: the supplied cord, chain or rod can be shortened. Over a dining table, a drop that leaves roughly 75 to 90 cm between the table top and the bottom of the shade suits most rooms.
• Ceiling type: every model suits a flat ceiling. Sloped-ceiling compatibility is stated per product in the Product Specifications above.
• Power: these fittings are hardwired. They do not plug into a socket.
• Dimming: models with a replaceable bulb can usually be dimmed with a compatible dimmer. Integrated LED models generally cannot.

Tools you may need

• Screwdriver
• Voltage tester
• Wire strippers
• Wire nuts or terminal connectors (supplied)
• Step ladder, and a second person for anything heavy or wide
• Drill, if you are fitting a new outlet box or bracing the ceiling

Installation

Turn the lighting circuit off at the consumer unit or breaker panel - the wall switch is not enough. Test at the ceiling outlet with a voltage tester and confirm the wires are dead.

Screw the supplied bracket to the ceiling outlet box with the screws provided. Tighten evenly and check that it sits flat and square; a bracket that is not level will show in the finished hang.

Adjust the cord, chain or rod to the drop you want before you make any electrical connection. Lock the length using the canopy adjuster or the grip inside the canopy. Where a cord is shortened, coil the surplus neatly inside the canopy rather than cutting it - that keeps the height adjustable later.

• Live to live: black, brown, or the terminal marked L
• Neutral to neutral: white, blue, or the terminal marked N
• Earth to earth: green, green-and-yellow, or bare, to the earth terminal or screw

Secure each connection with a connector and press the wiring gently up into the box. Nothing should be trapped between the canopy and the ceiling when you close it.

Lift the canopy or backplate onto the bracket and fasten it with the screws or decorative caps supplied. Work up to a firm fit rather than forcing it - decorative caps and plated threads strip easily.

Fit the bulb type and wattage listed in the Product Specifications above. Where several sockets share one shade, use identical bulbs so the colour and brightness match across the fitting.

Switch the circuit back on and test the light, including the dimmer if you have fitted one. Isolate the power again before re-opening anything.

Important tips

• Follow the wiring rules that apply where you live, and use a qualified electrician for high ceilings, sloped mounts or anything you are unsure of.
• Have someone hold a wide or heavy fitting while you make the connections. Do not let it hang on its wiring at any point.
• Clean glass and crystal with a dry, soft cloth. Do not spray cleaner onto a fitting that is wired in.
• Do not over-tighten decorative parts: they are finished, not structural.

If anything about the fitting, the drop or the wiring is unclear, email info@clerachic.com and a person will answer you.
