Barbena 2 Light Ceiling Light - Chrome

Description

DescriptionThe Barbena is a two light ceiling light with a chrome steel frame wrapped in clear faceted glass. Seen from the side it is a broad, flattened oval; from underneath it is round, with a small chrome finial at the centre. Each piece of brilliant glass sits in its own ring of chrome wire, so the whole shade reads as a dome of small sparkling discs. It is 35cm in diameter and 20cm high, and it takes two E27 bulbs of up to 60W each. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs indoors in dry rooms, away from bathrooms and outdoor walls.
Because it sits close to the ceiling, this chrome ceiling light suits rooms where a hanging pendant would crowd the space: a hallway, a landing, a bedroom or a living room. It suits anyone who wants sparkle overhead without a low-hanging chandelier. At 35cm across it gives a room a proper focal point without dominating it. When the bulbs are lit, the faceted glass breaks the light into bright points and throws a soft, dappled pattern across the ceiling, which gives a plain room real character. Even when the lamps are dark, the chrome and clear glass catch the daylight from a nearby window.
The frame is steel with a chrome finish, and the shade is made from clear brilliant glass pieces linked by chrome wire rings. There is no switch on the fitting itself: it is switched at the wall, so it works from the light switch you already use. It runs on a 220-240V, 50/60Hz supply, and it weighs 3.11KG packed. Because it is wired into the mains, it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions come as a download. Bulbs are not included, so pick up two E27 bulbs of no more than 60W each before your fitting day.

Frequently AskedCan the Barbena go in a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs in dry indoor rooms only, so we would keep it out of bathrooms and away from anywhere outdoors.
Which bulbs does it take?
It takes two E27 bulbs with a maximum of 60W each. Bulbs are not included, so you will need to buy two separately.
How big is the Barbena ceiling light?
It is 35cm in diameter and 20cm high, so it sits close to the ceiling and suits rooms where a hanging pendant would feel too low.
What material is the shade?
The shade is made of faceted pieces of clear brilliant glass, each one held in a ring of chrome wire around a steel frame.
Does it have its own switch?
No. It has no switch of its own and is switched at the wall, so it works from your existing wall switch.
