Elstead Carisbrooke Chandelier

The Elstead Carisbrooke Chandelier is a five-light candelabra-style ceiling light from Elstead's Carisbrooke range. It references traditional Gothic candle fittings with hand-bound wire drapes and ivory-coloured candle tubes to create a calm, considered overhead ambience in interior spaces.

Formally the fitting presents a simple cylindrical central hub from which five graceful, curved arms sweep upwards to small bowl-shaped bobeches. Thin, parallel metal rods are draped to create a layered, airy silhouette and the fixture is suspended by a metal chain and loop that allow height adjustment.

Construction is metal with a dark, textured matte finish consistent with bronze or wrought-iron tones, paired with contrasting cream candle sleeves that mimic real candles. Wiring is discreetly routed through the central column and along the arms, reflecting considered assembly and finish.

The chandelier uses five candelabra-base lamp holders (E12), and the product is commonly shown with clear flame‑tip bulbs to emphasise the candle-like effect. The sleeves and bobeches help modulate glare so the fitting performs as an ambient ceiling light rather than a focused task luminaire.

As part of the wider Carisbrooke range, the fittings can accept optional glass on some models, and certain members of the range include a flush-convert system to adapt from chain suspension to a semi‑flush mount. The fitting is rated IP20 for interior use and comes with a general two-year warranty; wiring and installation should be completed in accordance with local regulations.
