The Halden Drum Alabaster Pendant Light features a rounded drum of natural alabaster — neither a flat cylinder nor a half-sphere, but a barrel shape with a soft radius at the top and bottom — suspended from a slim brass stem. A short brass collar joins the stone to the stem, holding the bulb socket inside the drum. When illuminated, the full height of the drum glows evenly because the form is wider than it is tall and the bulb sits centered inside. The drum is 17 cm wide and 21 cm tall — sized for a kitchen island in clusters of three, a single pendant over a bedside, or a row over a dining bar.
Rounded barrel shape — softer than a flat cylinder, fuller than a dome.
Short polished collar connects the stone to the stem above.
Single rigid rod — gives the pendant a defined ceiling-to-shade line.
Standard medium-base bulb — swappable, dimmable with the right bulb.
Translucent stone — vein pattern glows when the bulb is on.
Hardwired, works on North America and EU mains.
Alabaster is a translucent natural stone with grey-brown veining and faint honey cloudiness through the white base. Each Halden drum is cut from a different block, so the vein pattern, vein density, and underlying tone will vary from the photo. When the bulb is on, the veins read brightest because they're where the stone is thinnest — this is normal alabaster behavior, not a defect.
The Halden takes one standard E26 medium-base bulb — the same size as most household table-lamp bulbs in North America. Bulbs are not included. We recommend a warm-white LED (2700–3000K) to bring out the honey tones in the alabaster veins; max 40W keeps the drum cool to the touch.

The Halden is a single-size pendant, sized for use in a single hanging or in a row of three to five over a kitchen island, dining bar, or hallway. It is not large enough to act as the primary light in a full room on its own — pair it with overhead ambient lighting or hang multiple units to cover larger spaces.

Installation
FAQ
How is a drum pendant different from a dome or cylinder pendant?
A dome is a half-sphere — open at the bottom, curved across the top. A cylinder is a flat-sided tube with sharp edges top and bottom. A drum sits between the two: rounded radius at the top and bottom of the shade, but with straighter sides than a dome. The Halden's drum form gives an even light spread because the bulb sits centered inside, with the rounded top and bottom softening any glare you'd see from a sharp-edged cylinder.
What bulb does it take — E26 or E27?
Both work. E26 (North American medium-base) and E27 (European medium-base) have the same thread diameter and are interchangeable in this fixture. The supplier doc specifies E27, but any E26 bulb from a US retailer (Home Depot, Amazon, hardware stores) will screw into the socket without an adapter. Recommended: any warm-white LED at 2700–3000K, maximum 40W equivalent. Buy a dimmable bulb if you want to dim the fixture from a wall switch.
Will my Halden look exactly like the photo?
No. Alabaster is a quarried stone — every block has its own pattern of veining and tone. The photo shows one representative drum. Your piece will have a different vein pattern, a different vein density, and may sit slightly whiter or warmer than the photo. When the bulb is on, the veins glow brightest because they're where the stone is thinnest. This is normal alabaster behavior, not damage or a manufacturing flaw.
Can I cluster multiple Haldens?
Yes — a row of three to five Haldens works well over a kitchen island, dining bar, or stair void. Each pendant ships with its own brass canopy and stem. Because the stem is rigid, all units hang at the standard length unless you request a custom drop. For a cluster on a single canopy with adjustable rod lengths, contact us before ordering and we can quote the multi-pendant build.
Can I use a dimmer with this light?
Yes, with the right combination. The Halden dims when paired with two things together: a dimmable E26 LED bulb (look for "dimmable" on the bulb packaging — not all LEDs are dimmable) and a Triac dimmer wall switch. Non-dimmable LEDs will flicker or stay at full brightness on a dimmer, regardless of the fixture.
Is it certified for North America and Europe?
Yes. It operates on AC 110–240V worldwide with compliance suitable for North America, Saudi Arabia, Europe, and Australia.
A pendant light delivering task and ambient lighting — ideal for kitchen island, dining table, entryway, bedroom, foyer. This energy-efficient LED lighting fixture casts a soft, glare-free glow in your choice of warm or neutral color temperature, blending refined craftsmanship with everyday comfort.

GOOD TO KNOW
A room concept can help you discuss placement, proportions and finish combinations. It is a way to compare ideas before final specifications are agreed.
A visualization does not replace installation drawings, load calculations or electrical advice. Your installer needs the confirmed product specifications and site conditions.
Changes to size, drop length, finish or configuration depend on the selected product. Share your preferences and ask for confirmation of availability and lead time.

AUVIELIGHT · A SENSE OF PROPORTION
Start with the room, the furniture and the space you move through. A few careful measurements help you see whether a light belongs.
EXPLORE THE GUIDE
AT THE TABLE
As an initial visual exercise, compare a fixture around one-half to two-thirds of the table’s width. Shape, light distribution and the room can change what feels right.
This is a proportion study, not an installation specification. Check the actual fixture and have the final position reviewed for your space.
BEYOND THE TABLE
Record floor-to-ceiling height and the proposed drop. Allow for movement, doors and sightlines.
Measure the room and the furniture zone the light will serve. Consider the fixture from different viewpoints.
Check the relationship to mirrors, headboards, shelving and switches before choosing the mounting position.
Look at shade height, reading position and nearby surfaces. The best scale also works for everyday use.
BEFORE YOU DECIDE
Use a paper outline or simple temporary marker to see the intended size in the room. Never suspend an unsafe improvised weight.
Keep width, depth, ceiling height and the product dimensions together.
Look from the doorway, seated positions and adjacent rooms.
Review the product instructions, suspension limits and mounting needs with your installer.

AUVIELIGHT · RETURNS INFORMATION
A clear place to understand the return enquiry process and the information our team will need.
You have 30 calendar days from confirmed delivery to request a return or exchange — just email support@auvielight.com with your order number, the item, and why you'd like to send it back. A request isn't complete until we've replied with written authorization, and any right to cancel that the law gives you doesn't wait on our approval.
For a change-of-mind return, we ask that the item be unused, uninstalled and unmodified, with every accessory and its original protective packaging intact. Opening the box carefully to check the item over doesn't disqualify it on its own — the packaging and product just need to still be complete and undamaged when it comes back to us. None of this overrides rights you have by law.
Email us with your order number, which item you're returning, and your reason. Attach photos of the product, the box, the inner packaging and the shipping label if anything's wrong with it — that helps us move faster. Once we approve the return, we'll send you the address and any instructions; ship it with a trackable service, and for anything fragile or valuable, insurance is worth the cost. Hold onto your carrier receipt and tracking number until the whole thing is resolved.
If you're returning something simply because you changed your mind, or it wasn't quite what you pictured for the room, that return shipping — along with insurance and any related charges — is on you; for large or international pieces, that can add up, so ask us about the likely cost before you order if you're unsure. If instead the item arrived faulty, damaged in transit, or wasn't what you actually ordered, we cover reasonable return costs ourselves once the issue is confirmed.
The correct return address depends on your order and where it originally shipped from, so please wait for our written instructions rather than guessing. We will provide the exact recipient and address in writing for your specific order. The UK correspondence address is a contact point, not a place to send returns, unless we expressly tell you otherwise in writing.
Tell us as soon as you can — ideally within 7 days of delivery — and include photos of the unopened box, the shipping label, the inner packaging and the item itself. Hold onto everything until we've given you next steps; please don't repair, discard, or send anything back before then. Reporting promptly helps us resolve it faster, but a later report doesn't cost you any right the law already gives you.
Anything made or personalized specifically to your order isn't eligible for a change-of-mind return once we've started producing it — though this doesn't affect your rights if the item turns out to be faulty or not what was described. The same goes for anything that's been installed, altered, damaged through use, or is missing its original parts or packaging.
Want to swap for something else? The same authorization process applies. We'll confirm any price difference, shipping cost and lead time with you in writing before we process it.
Once your return reaches us, we aim to inspect it within 3 to 5 business days. From there, an approved refund usually reaches your original payment method within 7 to 14 business days, though your bank may take a little longer to post it. Wherever the law sets a faster deadline than this, we follow that instead. Where a deduction is legally permitted — for example, for reduced value from use beyond a reasonable check — we'll explain it before applying it.
Reach out as soon as possible if you want to change or cancel an order. Within 24 hours of ordering, we'll make a requested cancellation or address change free of charge and confirm it in writing. After that, what is possible depends on order status; there may be permissible nonrecoverable costs, which we'll explain before asking you to confirm.
Nothing in this policy limits a consumer right or remedy that can't legally be excluded, and wherever your local law offers stronger protection than what's written here, that stronger protection is what applies.
