The Siedel PE05 is a five-light French Provincial pendant in copper available with fabric shades or bare fiveE14 globes to 25W each, not supplied, at 430mm high.

It is the same height as the three-light, and that tells yousomething useful. The PE03 and PE05 both stand 430mm, where the six andnine are 500 and the eight is 550.

So at the small end the Siedel widens rather than deepens as lights are added:the five gets its extra two lights across, not down. That makes bothsmall sizes shallow fittings 430mm is a modest drop,which suits an ordinary 2.4-metre ceiling and a room where you walk under the fittingrather than only sit beneath it.

Shaded or bare

Both are stocked, and they are different fittings to live with:

• With fabric shades (3.1kg) globes covered, lightdiffused and glare-free, reading as a traditional French Provincialchandelier. It can hang lower, and the globes need not match.
• Bare (2.5kg) five visible E14 globeson a copper armature: deliberate and more contemporary. The globes becomethe entire appearance, so buy five matched decorative filaments, andhang it well above eye level.

On a shallow fitting like this one, the bare option needs more care: at430mm the globes sit closer to head height than they would on the deeper sizes,so the hanging height matters more. Ask us and we will send images of both.

Five globes, 125 watts of capacity

Five E14 to 25W each 125W total, none supplied.E14 is the small screw base, SES. With LED candles at 4 to 6Wthe real draw is about 25W.

Warm 2700K: against copper, cool whitereads green and turns a warm metal muddy.

It dims, with the right globes the datasheet saysglobe dependent, and the specification table carriedno dimming row at all. With five globes a matched dimmable set iseasy. Ask us.

Copper, and French Provincial

Copper is unusual in this catalogue warmer and pinker than brass, readingas older, and belonging with aged timber, stone, linen and mutedpaint. Paired with a French Provincial armature it istraditional without being formal.

What our page did not tell you. Its specificationtable was three lines finish, light count, maximum wattage withno voltage, no IP rating, no dimensions and no dimming.

So: 240V, ClassI earth required,IP20 indoor and dry locations only, iniron with fabric shades, on a 2,000mm suspension. Andno width is recorded anywhere. Ask us before you order.

Questions

How deep does it hang?

430mm the same as the three-light, and the shallowest in the range along with it. At the small end the Siedel widens rather than deepens as lights are added, so the five gets its extra two lights across rather than down. That makes it suited to an ordinary 2.4-metre ceiling and a room you walk under.

Shaded or bare?

Both are stocked. Shaded, the globes are covered, the light is diffused and glare-free, and they need not match. Bare, five visible globes on a copper armature is a deliberate contemporary look but on a shallow fitting like this one it needs more care, because at 430mm the globes sit closer to head height than on the deeper sizes. Hang it high, and buy five matched decorative filaments.

How heavy is it?

2.5kg bare or 3.1kg with the shades. Our datasheet records it as the single string 2.5 or 3.1, which is why no page ever displayed a weight.

What globes do I need?

Five E14 to 25W each, 125W total, none supplied. Warm 2700K, because cool white against copper reads green. With LED candles the real draw is about 25W.

Can I dim it?

With the right globes the datasheet says globe dependent and the specification table had no dimming row. With five globes a matched dimmable set is easy.

How wide is it?

No source records it. Ask us before you order.

What did the old page not tell me?

Its specification table was three lines finish, light count, maximum wattage with no voltage, no IP rating, no dimensions and no dimming. All of those are here now.
