David Hunt Lighting Duxford Pendant

The David Hunt Lighting Duxford Pendant is a single-light ceiling pendant from the Duxford range. The fitting presents a slim, vintage-inspired profile with a shallow circular canopy, twisted fabric suspension cord and a decorative lampholder assembly in an antique brass/bronze finish.

Design intent is deliberately minimal and period-led: the pendant is shade-free by default so the cord and stepped lampholder form the principal visual elements. The lampholder includes a lower collar to accept a compatible shade if required.

Build details are clear and tactile. The canopy mounts flush to the ceiling to conceal the junction point, the cord is a twisted fabric style in a dark brown tone, and the visible metalwork shows a warm, aged brass/bronze appearance that suits exposed-bulb schemes.

The Duxford supplies a single exposed lamp position, making it suitable for decorative filament or designer bulbs and for use as a solitary pendant or in ordered rows or clusters over tables, counters or islands. The lampholder is designed to accept a screw-in or bayonet bulb type; bulbs and shades are not included.

Installation notes: the pendant includes the ceiling canopy and lampholder assembly. The lampholder provides a seat for a shade and the maximum supported shade weight is 2.2kg. Check bulb cap, wattage and dimmer compatibility when specifying—dimming depends on the chosen bulb and control gear. The product is supplied with a 1 year warranty.
