Gold Sputnik Chandelier with Milk Glass Globes

Brushed gold arms branch out along a linear axis rather than radiating from a single sphere, each ending in a soft milk white glass globe. The result keeps the geometric precision of a classic sputnik fitting but stretches it into a shape that follows a table or an island, which is far more useful in most real rooms than a perfect ball of arms.

Four sizes are available, with four, six, eight or twelve lights. The four-light version suits a small dining table, a hallway or a bedroom; six is the everyday choice for a dining room; eight covers a longer table or an open-plan kitchen; and twelve is a proper centrepiece for a large room or an entrance hall. Milk glass is the detail that makes it comfortable to sit under: it hides the filament completely and turns each globe into an even, glare-free source, which matters when there are eight or twelve of them in a room.

Glass globes are hand-finished, so slight differences between them are normal. Bulbs are not included. Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician, and the ceiling fixings must be rated for the full weight and length of the fitting.
