The Doreza PE50 is a 500mm seven-light iron and crystal pendant in glossygold seven E14 globes at 25W each, 175W total, not supplied.

175 watts, not 25 and seven globes to buy. Our recordlists 25W, which is the figure per globe. Seven E14 holders at25W is 175W total. On a fitting this size that is a real number:tell your electrician, and if you plan to dim it,make sure the dimmer is rated for the load.

Seven sources behind crystal

The reason for seven holders on a 500mm frame is thatcrystal needs light from many angles to sparkle. One bright source behind crystalgives a hot spot and dark facets; seven spread around the frame make thewhole piece catch light. It is the same reasoning as a traditional chandelier, and itis why the wattage adds up.

Choose the globes deliberately they are visible

Seven E14 globes, not supplied. Through crystal they will be seen, sobuy decorative candle globes rather than plain frosted ones. And a practical note:seven globes at 25W of halogen would be genuinely hot and heavy on a circuit LED candle globes at 3 to 5W each give a similar look for a fraction of theload, and are what most people fit.

500 by 300, on a 2-metre drop

500mm wide by 300mm high, canopy 105mm,suspension 2,000mm and adjustable. That is adining-table and entry proportion large enough to hold a table on its own,small enough for an ordinary ceiling once the drop is shortened.

It is ClassI earth required. Hard-wired, and alicensed electrician installs it genuinely, on this page.Dimming is globe dependent: fit seven dimmable globes and a suitably rated walldimmer and it dims; plain globes will not, and any globe that is not dimmable will simplystay at full output.

Glossy gold on iron

Gloss, not brushed a bright, reflective gold that works with the crystalrather than against it. It is a deliberately glamorous fitting, and the finish commits to that.

Questions

How many watts does it actually draw?

Up to 175 seven E14 holders at 25W each. Our record lists 25W, which is the per-globe figure. Tell your electrician, and if you plan to dim it, make sure the dimmer is rated for the load.

How many globes do I need to buy?

Seven, E14 candle base, not supplied. Budget for them when you order.

Should I use LED or halogen globes?

LED, almost certainly. Seven halogen candles at 25W each would be hot and heavy on a circuit; LED candle globes at 3 to 5W each give a similar look for a fraction of the load, and are what most people fit.

Why does it need seven lamps?

Because crystal needs light from many angles to sparkle. One bright source behind crystal gives a hot spot and dark facets; seven spread around the frame make the whole piece catch light.

Will the globes be visible?

Yes, through the crystal so buy decorative candle globes rather than plain frosted ones.

Can I dim it?

It depends on the globes. Fit seven dimmable ones and a suitably rated wall dimmer and it dims; any globe that is not dimmable will simply stay at full output.

Will it fit a normal ceiling?

Yes 500mm wide by 300mm high on a 2,000mm suspension that shortens at install. It is a dining-table and entry proportion.
