Product Information

Full details

The Davey Glass School Pendant Light, presented here in a sophisticated Brass / Opal finish, is designed for homeowners and interior designers seeking to add a touch of classic elegance with a modern twist to their living or dining spaces. Its key benefit lies in its versatile design, allowing it to be a striking standalone piece or a cohesive part of a multi-light arrangement, enhanced by the choice of premium brass fittings. A minor consideration is that the opal glass diffuses light, making it less suitable for showcasing exposed filament bulbs compared to its clear or anthracite counterparts.

FAQs

What type of light bulb does this pendant use?

This pendant light uses an E27 (Edison Screw) light bulb. Please refer to the product specifications for the maximum allowable wattage.

Can I use an exposed filament bulb with the opal shade?

The opal shade is designed to diffuse light, so while a filament bulb can be used, its decorative filament will not be as prominently visible as it would be with a clear or anthracite shade. The primary function of the opal shade is to provide soft, ambient illumination.

What are the available finishes for the fittings?

This particular model features brass fittings. Other variants of the Glass School Pendant Light are available with weathered brass fittings.

Is this pendant light suitable for outdoor use?

This product is designed for indoor use only. Using it outdoors may damage the fixture and void the warranty.

How do I clean the brass fittings?

Gently wipe the brass fittings with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or polishes that can tarnish or remove the finish.

Can I hang multiple pendants together?

Yes, the Davey Glass School Pendant Light is designed to look excellent whether hung as a standalone piece or in a series of multiples for a greater visual impact.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the light bulb is correctly screwed in and not burnt out. Check that the power supply to the light fixture is active and that the circuit breaker has not tripped. Verify all wiring connections are secure if recently installed.

Flickering light

This could indicate a loose bulb or a fault in the wiring. Try tightening the bulb. If the issue persists, inspect wiring connections or consult an electrician.

Glass shade is damaged

Contact the retailer or Davey customer support for replacement shade options. Handle with care during replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation should ideally be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and proper function. The pendant comes with a chain and ceiling rose for mounting. Ensure the ceiling structure can support the weight of the light fixture.

Compatibility: This pendant light is designed to be used with an E27 (Edison Screw) light bulb. Check the maximum wattage rating specified on the product or its packaging to avoid overheating. While this specific listing features an opal shade, other variants are available with clear and anthracite glass, which are better suited for exposed filament or decorative bulbs.

Care: To maintain its appearance, regularly dust the glass shade and fittings with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn smudges on the glass, use a slightly damp cloth and then dry thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, especially on the brass fittings, as this can damage the finish.
