Original Brass 1227 Pendant
Solid brass caps the 1227's steel shade — a pendant meant to patina, not wear out.
Heritage colorways pair with a solid brass shade cap and fittings on George Carwardine's classic silhouette, the metal deepening naturally with age. It hardwires to a standard 4-inch junction box with a color-matched adaptor plate. Compare the painted version in our Anglepoise collection.

Common Questions
Will the brass tarnish?
It will patina — the solid brass cap and fittings gradually deepen in tone with air exposure, which is intentional; wipe with a dry cloth if you prefer it brighter.
What bulb does it take?
One E26 screw-fit bulb rated up to 10 watts; an LED is recommended. No bulb ships in the box, so order one alongside.
