Perdita 8-light pendants: matt black FL2413-8 and brushed brass FL2465-8. Both are 600 mm in diameter. Product photographs show the fittings, not our showroom displays.
Matt black or brushed brass?
Matt black gives the crystal a defined outline and can sit comfortably alongside dark window frames, ironwork or black furniture. Brushed brass adds a warmer metal colour, useful when you want to pick up brass handles, picture frames or other warm finishes in the room. These are starting points for choosing a finish; the surrounding colours and light matter too.
In the models compared below, FL2413 identifies matt black and FL2465 identifies brushed brass. Keep the full code when comparing quotations: the numbers after the hyphen distinguish different fittings, sizes and lamp counts.
Compare the Perdita range
All measurements below are in millimetres. Pendant drop is the stated minimum to maximum overall drop, not just the height of the decorative body. Each product-code link opens its official Franklite data sheet.
Fitting | Size (mm) | Drop / projection (mm) | Franklite codes & sources |
3-light wall light | 350 wide × 340 high | 175 projection | |
5-light round pendant | 400 diameter | 410–1780 drop | |
8-light round pendant | 600 diameter | 410–1780 drop | |
10-light round pendant | 800 diameter | 410–2280 drop | |
11-light linear pendant | 1000 long × 300 wide | 530–2430 drop | |
12-light round pendant | 1000 diameter | 500–2280 drop | |
20-light pendant | 650 diameter | 670–2460 drop | |
27-light pendant | 800 diameter | 740–2530 drop | |
30-light pendant | 1000 diameter | 800–2580 drop |
The 20-light model is narrower than the 10-light round pendant, but needs more minimum drop. Lamp count alone does not tell you the width or whether a fitting will work with your ceiling height.
Choosing a size for your room
Start with the furniture and available clearance. Mark the fitting’s width on the floor or table to judge its scale, then check the full installed drop against your ceiling height. Keep doors, walking routes and sightlines clear. For a long dining table, compare the 1000 × 300 mm linear design with a round pendant before deciding.
For larger rooms, stairwells or tall ceilings, compare the 20-, 27- and 30-light models by both width and minimum drop. Discuss the fixing, ceiling support and access for installation and cleaning with your installer.
For help with measurements, read our guide to sizing a chandelier or pendant.
Two other shapes in the range: the matt black 3-light wall fitting and the brushed brass 11-light linear pendant. The wall light projects 175 mm; the linear fitting is 1000 mm long.
Lamps, dimming and light output
The 18 Perdita fittings listed here use replaceable E14 lamps, with a maximum of 10 W per lamp in Franklite’s data sheets. Lamps are sold separately. Ask us to help choose suitable LED lamps, including the shape, brightness and colour temperature.
For dimming, use suitable dimmable lamps and a compatible dimmer. A fitting with many lamps needs particular attention to dimmer compatibility and loading. The fitting itself does not have a fixed LED colour temperature: this depends on the lamps you choose.
For example, FL2413-20 needs 20 E14 lamps; a pair needs 40. We can quote for the fittings and suitable lamps together, with the lamp specification stated clearly.
These models are IP20 indoor fittings and Class 1, requiring an earth connection. Follow the model-specific manufacturer instructions and use a suitably qualified installer.
