The Farnix PE06 is a six-light pendant with curved arms and tapered fabric shadesin antique gold or nickel matt six E14 globes to 25W each, notsupplied, on a 1,500mm suspension.

Check the width with us before you order. Our recordsgive this six-light as 1,030mm wide and thefour-light as 1,220mm so on paperthe larger fitting is the narrower one.

The likeliest explanation is arrangement: six armsgathered into a circle occupy less width than fourspread along an axis. But it inverts what anyone would assume, and on a fittingover a metre across the width decides whether it fits.We have asked Telbix and will confirm before you commit.

What is not in doubt: this one has six lights to the other’s four 150W maximum against 100W so it is thebrighter and denser of the two, whatever the footprint turns out to be.

Six tapered shades on curved arms

The Farnix’s character is the sweep of the arms and thetaper of the shades a traditional language handled lightly, where straightarms and cylindrical shades would read purely contemporary. At six, the arms form afuller, more chandelier-like mass than the four-light’s, which is the real differencebetween them.

The fabric shades are opaque: each throws lightdown and up and none sideways into anyone’s eyes. Withsix sources over a dining table, that is what keeps it comfortable to sit under six visible filaments at eye level would not be.

Six globes, and the shades make it easy

Six E14 to 25W each 150W total, not supplied.E14 is the small screw base, SES. (Our page called it ES, which isthe larger E27. It is E14.)

Because the fabric hides every globe,brightness and warmth are the only decisions and on asix-globe fitting, not having to match them visually saves real trouble. Usewarm 2700K: against antique gold, cool white reads green.

Dimming depends on the globes. Our record says No;the datasheet and our page both say globe dependent, and they are right.Six LEDs on one dimmer is the hardest flicker case in this range do not mix brands. Ask us for a matched set of six.

752mm deep, on 1,500mm of suspension

It needs height. Over a standard 2.4-metre ceiling the suspension will beshortened at installation; over a stairwell or a double-height roomthe full drop is what it is designed for.

No weight is recorded for a six-light iron and fabricfitting over a metre across and this is the heavier of the two Farnix pendantsby construction. Your electrician needs that figure. Ask us before the fixing ischosen.

Antique gold or nickel matt

• Antique gold warmer and traditional, sitting with timber, brass and warmpaint. At six lights it is a substantial statement.
• Nickel matt understated and modern, and the matt is thepoint: on six curved arms, gloss would put a hard highlight along every one of them.

Farnix is also made as a wall light in the same language though it projects254mm, the deepest in this catalogue, so check the position first.

Where it works

• Large dining tables and entries six sources, no glare.
• Rooms with ceiling height, and stairwells.
• Alongside Farnix wall lights check the 254mm projection.
• Confirm the width with us our records make it narrower than the four-light.
• Six LEDs on one dimmer let us match them.

Questions

Is it wider than the four-light?

Our records say no 1,030mm against the four-lights 1,220mm, which inverts what anyone would assume. The likeliest explanation is arrangement: six arms gathered into a circle occupy less width than four spread along an axis. We have asked Telbix and will confirm before you commit. What is not in doubt is that this one has six lights to the others four, so it is the brighter and denser of the two.

What globes do I need?

Six E14 the small screw base, SES to 25W each, none supplied. Our page called it ES, which is the larger E27; it is E14. The fabric hides every globe, so brightness and warmth are the only decisions and on six globes, not having to match them visually saves real trouble.

Can I dim it?

With the right globes. Our record says No; the datasheet and our page both say globe dependent, and they are right. Six LEDs on one dimmer is the hardest flicker case in this range do not mix brands, and ask us for a matched set of six.

Will six lights glare over a table?

No the fabric shades are opaque, so each throws light down and up and none sideways. Six visible filaments at eye level would be uncomfortable; six shaded sources are not.

How much ceiling height does it need?

752mm of fitting plus 1,500mm of suspension. Over a standard 2.4-metre ceiling the drop will be shortened at installation; over a stairwell or double-height room the full length is what it is designed for.

How heavy is it?

Not recorded and this is the heavier of the two Farnix pendants by construction. Your electrician needs that figure; ask us before the fixing is chosen.

How is it different from the four-light?

Six arms make a fuller, more chandelier-like mass, and 150W maximum against 100. That density is the real difference the footprint is the figure we are confirming.
