Technical Information
Below are answers to some of the most frequently asked questions from our worldwide clientele. If your particular question is not answered here, please complete the 'Contact Us' form with the details of your query and we will be delighted to respond
CEILING LIGHTS:
- In the case of ceiling lights fitted with an adjustable chain, the height of the ceiling light is taken from the lowest point of the fitting to where the chain starts. An allowance of approximately 180mm or 7” should be added to the height of such ceiling lights to allow for a minimal length of chain and the ceiling rose
- All ceiling lights are supplied with approximately 500mm or 20" of chain. If additional chain is required please specify this with your order so that the fitting can be wired with an additional amount of cable. Additional costs may apply
- Ceiling lights are NOT supplied with fixing hooks or plates. A qualified electrician must assess the ceiling construction and supply the required hook or fitting mechanism
- Specialist French Candle tubes can be supplied on all chandeliers and wall lights at an additional cost. The sizes available are either 100mm or 170mm and they take a maximum 25 watt bulb. Standard candle tubes can take a maximum 40 watt bulb
- See the Bespoke Section of the website for more information on customising ceiling lights

- Wall lights WL13, WL26 and WL31 are all available as opposing pairs. This means they can come as left and right mirror images of each other. If not specified they will be supplied as pictured
- 4” or 5” candle clip shades can be used on most wall lights, however we recommend half candle clip shades on wall lights with a projection of less than 75mm or 3”
