How to change an enclosed pendant light bulb?

We have a pendant light that I have no way of figuring out how to change the bulb of. The enclosure at the top doesn’t allow for the bulb to come out no matter how I twist it (the fixture is larger than the hole). And it is fully glass all around. 

I suspect the whole thing needs to come down. But even then i don’t know how you’d get to it? Let it “fall in” and remove and change by putting hand inside the light? Feels like a tricky ship in bottle scenario.

Hi @newtoallthis,

Thank you for your question about changing the light bulb on your pendant light.

I suspect this notch is the likely answer to the problem.

It might be a bit tricky, but I imagine you can angle the pendant cover in a way that uses this notch to slip it off.

Give this a go and let me know what you think, I am genuinely intrigued.
