Full details

The Original BTC Globe Pendant Light is for homeowners and designers seeking a statement lighting fixture with a contemporary, industrial aesthetic. Its key benefit is providing a dramatic focal point in various living spaces. A potential caveat is its reliance on an exposed bulb for its full visual impact, requiring careful bulb selection. This pendant light features a striking glass globe design, available in opal or anthracite finishes, complemented by polished chrome or brass metalwork and a black & white cotton braided cable. It's offered in three sizes, making it versatile for individual use or for creating a modern lighting installation when hung in multiples.

FAQs

What size is the 'Large' Globe Pendant Light?

The 'Large' size of the Original BTC Globe Pendant Light measures 40cm in diameter.

What type of light bulb does this pendant use?

It uses an E27 screw-in light bulb. The style of the bulb is critical as it is exposed.

Can I hang multiple Globe pendants together?

Yes, the Globe pendant is designed to be hung in multiples for a unique, modern lighting installation.

What are the available glass and metal finish options?

The Globe pendant is available with either pearlescent opal or smokey anthracite glass, and with polished chrome or brass metalwork.

Does the light come with a bulb?

Is professional installation required?

Professional installation by a qualified electrician is strongly recommended for safety and correct setup.

How do I clean the glass shade?

Clean the glass shade with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on.

Ensure the power supply is switched on, the bulb is correctly screwed in, and the bulb is not burnt out. If issues persist, consult a qualified electrician.

Flickering light.

Check that the bulb is securely fitted. If using a dimmer, ensure both the bulb and the dimmer switch are compatible with each other. Try a different bulb to rule out a faulty bulb.

Glass globe appears dusty internally.

The glass globe should be cleaned carefully as per the care instructions. If dust is inside, it may indicate a seal issue, requiring professional assessment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Professional Installation Recommended: Due to the nature of pendant lighting, professional electrical installation is advised to ensure safety and proper function.
Bulb Selection: Choose an appropriate E27 screw-in light bulb. The exposed nature of the bulb means its style significantly impacts the overall look. Consider a decorative LED filament bulb for both energy efficiency and aesthetic appeal.

Compatibility:

Bulb Type: Compatible with E27 screw-in bulbs. Maximum wattage should be checked based on the specific bulb used and local electrical codes.
Dimmer Switches: If connected to a dimmer switch (and a dimmable bulb is used), the light intensity can be adjusted to suit the mood.

Care:

Cleaning the Glass: Gently wipe the glass globe with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, which can damage the finish.
Cleaning Metalwork: Use a soft cloth appropriate for the metal finish (e.g., brass polish for brass components, a microfiber cloth for chrome) to maintain shine. Ensure the fixture is powered off and cool before cleaning.
