    Hi all. I'm looking for somewhere that would sell what I believe is called an E27 light fitting. Specifically the type in the pictures (sorry about the quality). I've looked on the websites of Woddies / B&Q / Maplins but cannot find anything to match it. Hoping someone can help....

    Go to any electrical wholesaler in your area.

    www.aew.ie should help.

    Might be tough to get in plastic, but they should have it in brass or if they are any good, they will order in a complette pendant with E27 holder for you.

    This is a really standard fitting, also called an 'ES' or 'Edison Screw'. You could get a bayonet cap (BC) fitting too, which is more common in Ireland and the UK.

    The thing is probably finding one that fits with the rest of your lamp. Bring it up to any of the electrical wholesalers, they should be able to find something.
