Multi pendant light

I picked up a recent B&Q catalogue put through our door and spotted a light that I though fantastic for our daughters room

(page 6)
Three lamps from a single ceiling rose, in a choice of colours that would work perfectly.
However I realise now that B&Q only sell the lampshade and not the pendant itself.

Searching comes up with thousands of three lamp pendants but not what we are looking for.
Has anyone seen a lamp fitting like this?

Are you sure they all come from a single rose? The photo doesn't show that - I suspect it is more likely to be a marketing ploy to make very ordinary paper shades look better. Having 3 paper shades so close together would mean that some light bulbs were too close to the actual shade, which would pose a fire risk.0

Contacting B&Q would seem to show that in fact these where never connected to a lamp fitting, and they would have no idea where to get one from.
If anyone has seen anything like the above, please let me know.
To clarify I am looking for a single rose connection that splits into three lamp holders that will allow for three shades to be fitted.0 -
Sorry pun, I posted without seeing yours.
There are loads on the web that have three lamps from one fitting, but they are either with a cross bar or hung from the ceiling.
The lamp would be held by a metal rod keeping it in the middle of the shade, so should be fine.
Annoyingly i'm sure that I've seen this sort of thing years ago. But cannot remember where.0 -
If you do a search for 'paper lantern grouping' you will see lots of ideas.0

Loads and loads of pinterest type suggestions, lots of good ideas none of them for the fittings themselves.
However after a great deal of searching, I came across this

I think this is exactly what i'm looking for and only £6, great result, your post helped me start looking for the right terms. Thanks0
