Full details
The Mikara 7 Light Pendant is designed for homeowners and interior designers seeking a sophisticated, art-focused focal point for living rooms, dining areas, or high-ceiling stairwells. Its primary benefit is the unique, planet-inspired marble effect of the art glass shades, which creates a mesmerizing light display, though users should note that the seven-bulb requirement necessitates careful selection of compatible G9 LED bulbs for optimal dimming performance.

FAQs
Can this light be shortened to less than 70cm?
The pendant is designed for a drop between 70cm and 160cm; altering the cable length beyond these factory specifications is not recommended.
Are the bulbs included?
No, you will need to purchase 7 x G9 LED bulbs separately (maximum 5w each).
Is this fixture suitable for a bathroom?
No, this is an IP20 rated fixture intended for interior use in dry areas like living rooms, hallways, or dining rooms.
Does it require an earth wire?
As a Class 2 double-insulated light, it does not require an earth connection.
Can I use standard incandescent G9 bulbs?
While the sockets may accept them, it is highly recommended to use LED bulbs to reduce heat buildup and improve energy efficiency.
Troubleshooting
The light is flickering when dimmed
Ensure you are using dimmable-rated G9 LED bulbs; standard G9 LEDs will not respond correctly to dimmer switches.
The pendant height is uneven
Adjust the individual steel tension cables at the ceiling rose to level the cluster according to your preference.
One of the bulbs is not lighting up
Check the G9 pin connection in the socket and replace the bulb to verify if the original was faulty.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Striking artistic visual appeal
- Adjustable drop height for versatile ceiling compatibility

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician due to the weight of the glass cluster and the importance of secure mounting. The fixture is Class 2 double-insulated, meaning it does not require an earth connection, but ensure your existing ceiling wiring is compatible.
Care Instructions:
- Dust the glass shades regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to maintain clarity.
- Avoid chemical cleaners on the polished chrome finish; use a slightly damp cloth followed by a dry buffing to prevent streaking.
- Periodically check the tension of the steel cables to ensure the pendant remains at your desired height.
