The Azur Pendant Festoon lights are of superb quality and look fantastic on our patio. The retro filament bulbs look great however, whilst the bulbs are dimmable (as advertised) the festoon cable does not have an integral option to dim the lights. This means that they are very bright in our garden. Having already paid for an electrician to wire in a socket off the ring main we are reluctant to pay again for an external dimmer. Looking to source bulbs less bright. Don't let this put you off if you are looking for good quality festoon cable system.
