Product Information

Full details

This Medium Globe Pendant by Original BTC is designed for those seeking an elegant and contemporary lighting solution. Its key benefit is the striking visual appeal created by its glass shade and exposed bulb design, adding a sophisticated touch to any room. A potential caveat is the need to select the appropriate glass finish and metalwork to match your existing decor. This pendant features a distinctive glass globe, a visible squirrel cage bulb for a modern aesthetic, and a classic cotton braided cable.

FAQs

What type of light bulb does this pendant use?

This pendant uses an E27 screw-fit bulb. A squirrel cage style LED bulb is recommended for both aesthetic and energy efficiency.

Is the light bulb included with the pendant?

No, the light bulb is not included and must be purchased separately.

How do I choose between chrome and brass fittings?

Consider the existing metal finishes in your room. Chrome offers a modern, sleek look, while brass provides a warmer, more traditional feel. Both are designed to complement the glass shade options.

Can I adjust the length of the pendant cable?

Yes, the cable length can typically be adjusted during installation to suit your ceiling height and desired fixture position.

What are the available glass finishes?

This pendant is available in opal, anthracite, clear seedy, and anthracite seedy glass finishes.

Is this pendant suitable for a bathroom?

While elegant, it is recommended to check the specific IP rating for use in damp or wet environments. Typically, pendants with exposed glass and metalwork are best suited for dry areas of the home like living rooms, dining rooms, or bedrooms.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check that the power is switched on at the mains. Ensure the light bulb is correctly screwed in and functional. Verify all electrical connections are secure and correctly wired.

Flickering light

This could indicate a loose bulb or a failing bulb. Try tightening the bulb or replacing it with a new one. Check electrical connections for any signs of looseness.

Glass shade appears loose

Gently check any securing clips or screws that hold the glass shade in place. Do not overtighten. If the shade feels unstable, consult the installation manual or a professional.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Electrical Safety: Ensure power is switched off at the mains before beginning installation. If you are unfamiliar with electrical wiring, consult a qualified electrician.
  2. Mounting: Securely attach the ceiling bracket according to the provided instructions. The pendant weight should be supported by the bracket and not solely by the electrical wiring.
  3. Wiring: Connect the pendant's wires to the corresponding wires in the ceiling junction box (live, neutral, earth). Ensure all connections are secure and insulated.
  4. Bulb Installation: Screw in the appropriate E27 base light bulb (not included). We recommend a squirrel cage style LED bulb for aesthetic and energy efficiency.
  5. Cable Adjustment: Adjust the cable length if necessary before finalizing the fixture.

Compatibility:

  • Bulb Type: Compatible with E27 screw-fit bulbs. Maximum wattage and type (LED recommended) should be checked against the product's specific electrical rating.
  • Voltage: Standard household voltage (e.g., 110-240V depending on region).

Care:

  • Cleaning: Always ensure the light is switched off and cool before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the glass shade and metal fittings. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth, ensuring no moisture enters electrical components. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check that the light bulb is securely fastened and that the cable and fittings remain in good condition.
