The Searchlight Balls 1623-3CL is a three-light bar pendant designed to provide a linear spread of light above a kitchen island, breakfast bar or dining table. Finished in polished chrome with three clear, hand-blown glass globe shades, it combines a simple contemporary shape with visible decorative bulbs. The 86 cm long arrangement positions the three light sources along the surface below rather than concentrating illumination at one point. Its suspension height can be adjusted during installation, making it suitable for different ceiling heights and table or worktop positions. Three E27 lampholders also give you a wide choice of replaceable LED bulbs, while the clear glass keeps the bulbs visible as part of the finished appearance.
Handmade fitting - During the manufacturing process, tiny tooling marks, pattern variation, and colour variation can occur. This is not seen as an imperfection. They are characteristics of handmade metalwork. Each piece is unique.
A rectangular ceiling bar in a polished chrome finish supports three individual flex suspensions, each ending in a round clear glass globe. The fitting measures 86 cm in length and 20 cm in width, with each globe measuring 20 cm in diameter. Clear glass leaves the lamp visible, so the choice of bulb contributes to the overall look.
This shade is hand blown, so it is genuinely handmade rather than machine pressed. Small bubbles, subtle tooling marks and slight variation in pattern or colour are natural results of the glass blowing process, not faults.
Three E27 lampholders provide separate points of light along the 86 cm bar, making this arrangement particularly useful above longer tables, islands and breakfast bars. The bulbs are not included, so their brightness and colour temperature can be selected to suit the room.
Golf ball or pear-shaped E27 bulbs are recommended for this fitting. LED bulbs are compatible. The verified traditional bulb maximum is 40W per bulb; where an LED lamp is being selected, a bulb of up to 5W LED per lampholder is the recommended replacement wattage.
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.
The suspension is height adjustable during installation, with a verified overall height from 20 cm to 150 cm.

Are the bulbs included?
No. The Searchlight Balls 1623-3CL requires three E27 bulbs, which need to be purchased separately. Golf ball or pear-shaped bulbs are recommended because the lamps remain clearly visible through the transparent glass globes.

Yes. It 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.
Can the hanging height be adjusted?
Yes. The suspension height can be adjusted during installation. The verified overall height ranges from 20 cm to 150 cm, allowing the fitting to be positioned to suit the ceiling height and the surface below.
Is it suitable above a kitchen island?
Yes. Its 86 cm linear bar and three individual light sources make it particularly suitable above kitchen islands, breakfast bars and dining tables where light is needed across a longer surface.
Is this light suitable for a bathroom?
The fitting is rated IP20, so it is intended for normal dry indoor areas rather than locations requiring increased protection from moisture. For bathroom installation, choose a fitting with an IP rating appropriate to the required bathroom zone.
