Product Information

Full details

The Davey Glass School Pendant Light, particularly the Weathered Brass - Size 1 - Clear variant, is designed for homeowners seeking a blend of classic style and contemporary relevance. Its key benefit lies in its adaptable design, which complements both modern and traditional interiors. A potential consideration is the exposed filament bulb, which, while on-trend, requires careful bulb selection for desired ambiance and efficiency. This pendant light features a repurposed schoolhouse glass shade available in clear, anthracite, and opal, paired with either brass or weathered brass fittings, offering a distinctive lighting solution.

FAQs

What type of light bulb should I use?

The pendant uses an E27 screw-in bulb. For the best aesthetic, especially with clear or anthracite shades, LED filament bulbs designed to mimic traditional incandescent filaments are recommended. Always ensure the bulb's wattage does not exceed the fixture's maximum rating.

Can I hang multiple lights together?

Yes, this pendant light is designed to look excellent when hung in a series of multiples, creating a more impactful lighting display.

How do I clean the weathered brass finish?

For the weathered brass finish, it is best to use a soft, dry cloth for regular dusting. Avoid brass polishes, as they can remove the intended patina. If necessary, consult a specialist for cleaning advice for aged brass finishes.

Is the light dimmable?

The pendant light fixture itself is not inherently dimmable. However, it can be used with a compatible dimmer switch and a dimmable light bulb to achieve dimming functionality.

What are the dimensions of the Size 1 pendant?

The 'Size 1' designation typically refers to the standard or smallest size offered for this model. Specific dimensions should be checked against the product's technical specifications or packaging.

Does it come with the light bulb included?

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

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on.

Ensure the power supply is on and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Check that the light bulb is correctly screwed in and is not burnt out. Verify all wiring connections are secure.

Flickering light.

This could be due to a loose bulb or a faulty light bulb. Try tightening the bulb or replacing it. If the issue persists, check the wiring connections and consider if the wall switch is compatible with the bulb type (especially with LEDs).

Uneven lighting effect.

This is often dependent on the type of bulb used. If a clear or anthracite shade is used, ensure the filament bulb is centered. Consider using a diffused or frosted bulb if a more even light is desired, though this may detract from the exposed bulb aesthetic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation typically requires basic electrical knowledge. It is recommended to consult a qualified electrician. Ensure the power is switched off at the mains before beginning.

Compatibility: This pendant light is designed to work with standard E27 screw-in light bulbs. For best results and to achieve the desired aesthetic, consider using LED filament bulbs. Check local electrical codes and ensure your ceiling fixture can support the weight of the pendant.

Care:

  • Shade: Gently wipe the glass shade with a soft, dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, as they can scratch the glass.
  • Fittings: For brass fittings, use a brass polish if desired, following the product's instructions. For weathered brass, a gentle dusting is usually sufficient; avoid polishes that may alter the intended patina.
  • Bulb Replacement: Turn off power at the switch. Carefully unscrew the old bulb and screw in the new one. Ensure the new bulb's wattage does not exceed the fixture's maximum rating.
