Know before you buy
Yes, the fixture features an adjustable cord length of up to 78.74 inches, allowing you to customize the drop height to suit your specific space and ceiling height.
The Apollo is designed to provide focused, functional illumination. Its design makes it an excellent choice for task-oriented areas like bedside tables or as a concentrated light source over a dining surface.
The light is dimmable, allowing you to adjust the ambiance to your preference. Please note that you will need to ensure your wall dimmer switch is compatible with the integrated LED system.
Borosilicate glass is durable and heat-resistant, but it should be cleaned with a soft, lint-free cloth and a mild glass cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials to maintain the clarity and polished finish of the spheres.
Yes, this fixture is hardwired and requires professional installation. We recommend consulting with a licensed electrician to ensure the ceiling plate is securely mounted and the electrical connections are safely made.
The Apollo uses a 1.5W G4 LED bulb, which is included with the fixture. Because it uses a standard G4 base, the bulb can be replaced if it eventually burns out.
