Bixby - Brushed Bronze Pendant with Amber Ribbed Glass

The Bixby pendant features a rounded amber glass shade with closely spaced vertical ribbing. The textured surface creates decorative reflections when illuminated, while the amber tint adds warmth to the visible light.

Brushed bronze detailing provides a complementary metallic finish. A black braided cable suspends the shade from a compact circular ceiling fitting, keeping the overall design relatively simple and drawing attention to the glass.

Measuring 25 cm in diameter, the shade is substantial enough to be a visible decorative feature without requiring a wide ceiling area. Its combination of textured glass, warm colouring and restrained metal detailing suits contemporary, modern classic and vintage-inspired interiors.

Bixby uses one replaceable E27 Edison screw bulb, which must be purchased separately. The fitting is compatible with suitable E27 LED bulbs, so you can choose the light output and colour temperature to suit the intended space.

The amber ribbed glass surrounds the bulb and helps soften the visible light. Its textured surface creates a decorative lighting effect, although the actual brightness and colour will depend on the bulb selected.

The fitting is compatible with dimmable E27 bulbs when paired with a suitable dimmer switch. The bulbs and dimmer switch need to be matched to each other for dimming to work properly.

Suspension height is adjustable between 47 cm and 144 cm at the point of installation. Once fitted, the pendant is not designed for regular height adjustment.

With an IP20 rating, Bixby is intended for dry indoor areas. It is a mains-wired, Class I earthed ceiling fitting.
