Mathieu Challières Voliere Pendant

No, the birds are artistic representations crafted from delicate feathers and copper wire. Each piece is handmade in France, meaning the specific arrangement and personality of the birds will vary slightly from piece to piece.

The Voliere Pendant uses a single 9W bulb that produces 800 lumens at a warm 2700K color temperature. It is designed to provide soft, ambient illumination rather than task lighting, making it ideal for creating a mood in a dining room or entryway.

Because of the intricate copper wire and feather construction, this fixture requires a gentle touch. We recommend using a can of compressed air or a very soft, dry duster to remove dust periodically without disturbing the delicate bird figures.

The Voliere Pendant is canopy-mounted, which typically works best on flat ceilings. If you have a sloped ceiling, you will likely need to consult with a professional electrician to determine if a compatible sloped-ceiling adapter can be used with the mounting hardware.

Yes, the fixture is designed for a 9W G25 E26 bulb, which is included. If you choose to replace it in the future, ensure you select a bulb with the same base type and wattage to maintain the intended aesthetic and safety standards.

No, this fixture is UL recognized for dry locations only. Due to the natural feathers and copper construction, it should not be installed in bathrooms or areas with high humidity, as moisture can damage the materials.
