{"product_id":"visual-comfort-lorford-small-smoke-bell-lantern","title":"Visual Comfort Lorford Bell Lantern Pendant","description":"\u003cp\u003eChoosing a statement pendant for a dining room, kitchen island, or bathroom involves more than finding something beautiful — it means ensuring the scale, light quality, and material language work together in the finished space. Get any of those wrong and even a genuinely considered piece can feel out of place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor decorative pendants like this, the key decisions are proportion, light diffusion, and finish. Mercury glass does something conventional opal glass cannot: it scatters and reflects light in an irregular, layered way, producing warmth and atmosphere rather than a flat glow. The internal cluster of candelabra sources (E14 base, the smaller Edison screw fitting) works with the glass to create that effect without revealing the bare bulbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Visual Comfort Lorford Bell Lantern Pendant, designed by Chapman \u0026amp; Myers, is a considered answer to that brief. Its bell-shaped antiqued mercury glass shade sits within a U-shaped metal yoke and aged iron frame, referencing 19th-century lantern silhouettes while feeling entirely at home in a modern interior. A secondary horizontal glass plate above the shade opening allows light to reflect upward while keeping the interior protected — a detail that is as practical as it is elegant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Lorford is available in two finishes: Gilded Iron and Aged Iron, allowing it to read either as a warmer, more burnished accent or a cooler, more industrial one depending on the surrounding scheme. At 35.6cm wide and 60.96cm tall, with a 6-foot chain offering adjustable hanging height, it works well over a dining table or kitchen island where presence and proportion both matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fixture uses four E14 candelabra sockets, rated up to 60W each. It is not supplied with lamps, so your choice of bulb — filament, dimmable LED, or otherwise — will directly influence the warmth and dimming behaviour you achieve. IP20 rated, it is suitable for dry interior spaces only; it is not appropriate for bathroom zones requiring splash or moisture protection. Canopy diameter is 14cm round. Total weight is 6.4kg, so ceiling fixings and backbox should be rated accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt Lightsource Studio, we work with Visual Comfort and Chapman \u0026amp; Myers pieces precisely because they bridge design intent and real-world specification. The Lorford is the kind of pendant that photographs well and installs well — and we can help you confirm scale, lamp compatibility, and ceiling structure requirements before anything is ordered, so the project stays on track.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Visual Comfort","offers":[{"title":"Gilded Iron","offer_id":56286705484102,"sku":"16058931","price":1448.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Aged Iron","offer_id":56286705713478,"sku":"16058930","price":1448.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0872\/8982\/3558\/files\/158107.jpg?v=1775134922","url":"https:\/\/www.lightsourcestudio.es\/en\/products\/visual-comfort-lorford-small-smoke-bell-lantern","provider":"Lightsource Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
