Swing Arm Pendant Light, Brass Frame

A Ceiling Box in the Wrong Place Is the Reason This Fitting Has Joints at All Here

Almost nobody gets a wiring point exactly above the island. The usual answers are moving the box, which means plaster, or living with a pendant that hangs a foot to the left of where it should. Arms that pivot through 180 degrees sidestep both: the tube drops where the wiring already is and the globes travel to where the counter actually is. The adjustment is made once, on the day, with the kitchen finished.

Questions about this product

Everything you need to know about this product.

How far can an arm reach to one side?

Each joint turns through 180 degrees, so on the 55 inch frame a globe can finish well over a foot either side of where the tube drops. That is usually enough to cover an island whose middle never matched the ceiling box, which is the common case in a kitchen that was rewired after it was built.

Does the arm stay where I put it?

The joint holds by friction and is tight enough that a globe stays in position through normal use. It is meant to be set once at installation rather than moved daily, so position it with the counter in place and leave it.

What bulb does it take?

A G9 capsule at 3W per globe, which is the small two pin bulb that hides inside the opal glass. LED versions are sold everywhere, stay cool and suit this fitting better than halogen, which runs hot in a shade this size.

How high will it hang?

The rigid tube ships in an 11.8 and a 15.7 inch section. Use one, the other, or both spliced for 27.5 inches of drop below the plate, then add the frame height. Over an island most people land the globes around 34 inches above the counter.

Is 26.5 lbs a problem for my ceiling?

It needs a fixture rated box rather than a bare rose, which is standard in most North American ceilings. The frame spreads its load through a single plate and the fixings are supplied, so the install is routine for an electrician who knows the weight in advance.

Brass or black over a dark kitchen?

Brass against dark cabinets is the pairing in most of these pictures and it keeps the frame readable as a line. Black disappears into a dark ceiling and leaves only the globes floating, which is the quieter result and the one to pick if the island is already busy.

Square Section Brass Reads as a Drawn Line, Which Is Why the Frame Stays Visible

Round tube disappears against a ceiling. Square section catches light on one face and leaves the next in shadow, so the frame holds an edge from across the room and the whole fitting reads as a line someone drew rather than a wire someone hung. It is also why the larger sizes carry four globes without looking crowded: the frame does the composition and the glass only lights it.
