The Searchlight Balls 1632CL is a single light globe pendant designed around a large 30 cm clear glass shade and a polished chrome effect finish. Its simple spherical form suits contemporary kitchens, dining areas, hallways and living spaces, while the transparent glass keeps the bulb visible and allows light to spread freely into the room. The suspension can be adjusted during installation, with a verified overall height range from 30 cm to 300 cm, making the pendant adaptable to different ceiling heights and positions above tables or kitchen islands. It uses one replaceable E27 LED bulb up to 10W, which is purchased separately.
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.
The Balls pendant combines a rounded clear glass shade with metal components in a chrome finish. The transparent globe leaves the light source visible, so the appearance of the chosen bulb forms part of the overall design. Its clean shape works well in contemporary and modern classic interiors without adding excessive visual weight.
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.
The fitting uses one E27 bulb and is suitable for an LED lamp up to 10W. The bulb is not included, giving you the flexibility to select the brightness and colour temperature that suit the room. Because the glass shade is clear, the bulb remains visible and light can pass through the globe in multiple directions rather than being confined by an opaque shade.
The pendant is height adjustable at installation, with an overall height range from 30 cm to 300 cm. This makes it useful where the drop needs to be set to suit a dining table, kitchen island or higher ceiling.
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.
