Know before you buy
Because the shade is made of delicate blown glass, it should be cleaned periodically with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners to preserve the clarity and finish of the material.
No, this specific model is not dimmable. It is designed for standard on-off operation.
The Chapeau is a hardwired fixture, meaning it requires a direct electrical connection to your ceiling junction box. We recommend having a professional electrician handle the installation to ensure it is securely mounted and properly wired.
While the diameter is substantial enough to serve as a focal point, the glass construction keeps the visual weight light. It works well in dining areas, entryways, or over kitchen islands, provided you have enough ceiling height to accommodate its suspension.
Borosilicate glass is known for its high durability and resistance to thermal shock. In this application, it provides a crisp, high-quality aesthetic that is both lightweight and structurally sound.
