BEAT 38 black pendant lampshade, max. 15 W

Name: BEAT 38 black pendant lampshade, max. 15 W
Brand: Rendl light studio

BEAT 38 is a pendant lampshade in black quilted imitation leather, stitched into a regular diamond grid. It is a truncated cone 38 cm across and 26 cm high, open at the top and at the bottom. This is the shade on its own, not a finished light. How big it is and what to hang it over A diameter of 38 cm keeps its proportion over a table roughly 80–90 cm wide — over a narrower top the shade starts to dominate, over a wider one it no longer covers it. The lower edge usually hangs 70–80 cm above the tabletop: the light then reaches the whole table and the shade does not block the view of anyone sitting opposite. The shade weighs 540 g. That figure is worth checking against the load the suspension you pick is rated for, particularly with sets on a thin cable. What else you need to make a light out of it This item is the shade alone — no lampholder, no cable with a ceiling rose, no lamp. To end up with a working light you need a separate suspension set for shades and a lamp; no driver is included either, so the lamp has to run straight off mains voltage. The manufacturer caps the lamp at 15 W. When choosing one, watch the wattage rather than the stated brightness alone — the limit is on power, because the shade is made of a soft material rather than glass or metal. The material and the way it throws light The surface is smooth with a soft sheen, and the stitching forms diamonds — a detail up close, an even dark shape against the ceiling from further away. The material is opaque, so no light passes through the sides: it leaves through the open bottom, downwards, and partly through the open top, towards the ceiling. It also means the lamp stays visible from below. If the light hangs low over a table, or in the line of sight of someone seated, an opal bulb is a better choice than a clear one.Show more
