The Dar Lighting Genoa GEN1242 is a decorative 12 light chandelier in a natural brass finish with smoked glass discs. Designed to make an impact in larger interiors, it combines a warm metallic frame with layers of softly tinted glass to create a distinctive, sculptural appearance. Twelve separate light sources provide illumination throughout the fitting, while the overlapping glass adds depth and visual interest. Measuring 60 cm in diameter and 66 cm in body height, Genoa is particularly suited to dining rooms, spacious living areas, entrance halls and stairwells. Its adjustable suspension offers an overall hanging height from 77 cm to 270 cm, making it suitable for a range of ceiling heights and allowing the chandelier to be positioned appropriately within the room.
The Genoa chandelier features a natural brass finish complemented by numerous softly smoked glass discs. The glass elements are arranged around the central structure, creating a layered, decorative silhouette with a sense of movement and depth.
Its warm brass colouring contrasts with the darker translucent glass, producing a combination that works well with both contemporary and modern classic interiors. The individual glass elements remain a prominent part of the design whether the light is switched on or off.
With a diameter of 60 cm, Genoa has a substantial visual presence without relying on an excessively wide frame. A ceiling plate and chain suspension complete its hanging design.
Genoa uses twelve E14 small Edison screw bulbs, with the light sources positioned at multiple points within the chandelier. This arrangement provides illumination across the decorative structure rather than from a single central lamp.
The surrounding smoked glass discs soften and partially filter the light passing through them, while their layered arrangement creates varying levels of transparency. The overall brightness and colour of the illumination depend on the bulbs selected.
LED E14 bulbs can be used, offering a practical alternative to traditional lamps. The chandelier is compatible with dimmable E14 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.
The suspension height can be adjusted during installation. With a minimum overall height of 77 cm and a maximum of 270 cm, the fitting can be positioned to suit different ceiling heights and room layouts.
Twelve bulbs are required and must be purchased separately.
