The Searchlight Pyramid 3228SS is a single pendant ceiling light combining a satin silver finish with a clear hand-blown glass shade. Its open, transparent design keeps the E27 bulb clearly visible, making the lamp itself part of the overall appearance. With a 29 cm diameter and an adjustable suspension reaching up to 100 cm in overall height, the pendant can work well above dining tables, kitchen islands, breakfast bars or as a decorative ceiling light in living spaces. The simple domed glass shade and understated silver finish suit both contemporary and modern classic interiors. Height adjustment at installation also makes it easier to position the light appropriately for the room and application.
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 Pyramid combines a satin silver-finished metal structure with a broad clear glass shade measuring 29 cm in diameter. The transparent shade leaves the E27 bulb and lampholder visible, giving the pendant a simple exposed-lamp appearance without enclosing the light source behind an opaque diffuser.
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 replaceable E27 bulb, which is not included. The clear glass shade allows light from the bulb to remain visible and distribute into the surrounding room without an opaque shade blocking the sides.
LED E27 bulbs are compatible. No product-specific maximum LED wattage could be verified, so for modern LED use, the recommended limit is up to 8W LED per bulb. The original specification lists a 60W maximum for a traditional bulb.
The pendant 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.
The overall suspension height can be adjusted during installation, with a verified maximum height of 100 cm and a fitting height of 28 cm.
