Amabella Chandelier

A chandelier from Four Hands that takes its cue from a bouquet caught mid-fall. Seven iron arms finished in aged antique brass sweep downward from a round canopy, and each one ends in a small tapered shade shaped like a blossom. The bulbs stay visible inside the petals, so the light reads as a cluster of small, warm points rather than one large glow.

The Amabella suite pairs a botanical idea with a restrained, slightly weathered metal finish, which keeps it from tipping into sweetness. It has the loose, gathered look of a hand-tied arrangement, and the brass will sit comfortably with plaster walls, dark wood, painted millwork or a room already full of pattern. Because the arms spread wide and hang low, the piece works as a sculptural object even when it is switched off.

Hang it over a dining table, in a stairwell or entry, or above a bed in place of a pair of sconces. The drop is adjustable with a set of interchangeable pipe lengths, so it can be set for a lower ceiling or a double-height room. It is hardwired, uses seven small-base LED bulbs, and is damp rated, which makes it a fit for covered porches and bathrooms too.
