01 / The feeling
Timeless Spheres, Modern Warmth
A luminous sphere of opal glass and brushed brass that casts the most beautiful, diffused glow across your space. This pendant creates an inviting ambience whether suspended above a dining table, kitchen island or in your hallway, with warm light spilling gently downwards whilst the brass dome reflects a subtle gleam upwards. The Selene brings that perfect balance of contemporary elegance and timeless appeal—the kind of lighting that makes guests pause and admire.
Measuring 25 cm in diameter, it's substantial enough to make a statement without overwhelming your room. The generous 3-metre cable offers flexible installation height, whilst dimmable functionality lets you adjust the mood from bright task lighting to intimate evening glow. Crafted from quality opal glass and brass with excellent build quality at 1.5 kg, this IP20-rated fitting takes a standard E27 bulb up to 20W (not included). Simple to install and stunning to live with.

Good to know
A few questions,
before it comes home.
Does the Selene Spherical Pendant Light require an electrician to install?
Yes, this is a hardwired Class I pendant light and must be installed by a qualified electrician in compliance with UK Building Regulations Part P. The fitting connects directly to your mains supply, typically via a ceiling rose or BESA box, and requires proper earthing. The cable length is 3 metres, which can be shortened during installation if needed.
What type of bulb does this pendant take and is one included?
The Selene uses a standard E27 Edison Screw (ES) bulb with a maximum wattage of 20W, but no bulb is included with the fitting. You can choose LED, halogen, or traditional filament bulbs up to 20W depending on your preferred brightness and colour temperature. For best results with the opal glass diffuser, we recommend a warm white LED (2700K-3000K) for ambient lighting.
Is the Selene Opal Brass pendant light dimmable?
Yes, this fitting is dimmable, but you'll need to use a dimmable E27 bulb and have a compatible dimmer switch installed. Ensure your dimmer switch is rated for the bulb type you choose—LED bulbs require LED-compatible dimmers to avoid flickering. The pendant itself has no restrictions on dimming, so performance depends entirely on your bulb and dimmer combination.
What are the dimensions of this pendant and how low will it hang?
The Selene measures 250mm in diameter with an overall drop of 428mm from the ceiling, including the suspension cable and canopy. The opal glass sphere itself is approximately 250mm wide, making it well-suited for dining tables, kitchen islands, or medium-sized rooms where you need focused lighting without overwhelming the space. The 3-metre cable allows for adjustable height during installation.
Can this pendant light be used in a bathroom?
No, the Selene has an IP20 rating, which means it offers no protection against moisture and is only suitable for dry indoor locations. UK bathroom regulations require minimum IP ratings depending on the zone—IP65 for zones 1 and 2—so this fitting should not be installed in bathrooms. It's ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and dining areas instead.
What is the weight of this pendant and does it need special ceiling support?
The Selene weighs 1554g (approximately 1.55kg), which is within the capacity of standard UK ceiling fixings and BESA boxes. Most plasterboard ceilings with proper fixings or joist-mounted ceiling roses will support this weight without issue, but your electrician will assess the ceiling structure during installation. If your ceiling is particularly weak or old, additional reinforcement may be required.
