A Flat Disc Of Colour, Hung Over A Table
Bauhaus lighting was built on a simple idea: take the ornament out and let the shape and the material do the work. That is exactly what this pendant is — a flat, wide disc of coloured glass, a brass-toned collar, a plain flex, and a bulb that hangs just below the shade so the light spreads across the table instead of down onto it.
Hung over a dining table it draws the room together the way a proper ceiling light should. Over a kitchen island, a run of two or three looks considered rather than fussy. In a hallway, one is enough.
The Colour Is In The Glass
Deep brown, burnt orange, soft green or milk white — pigmented glass rather than paint on a metal shade, so it holds its depth in daylight and glows rather than glares when the light is on. Warm white throughout, which is what keeps the coloured versions looking rich instead of acidic.
Sized For A Table, Not A Ceiling Void
The wide, shallow shade is designed to sit low, which is the trick with pendant lighting: hang it 70 to 80 cm above the tabletop and it lights faces and food without anyone staring into the bulb. The flex can be shortened at the ceiling rose to suit your room.

Hang it low. That is the whole secret with pendants.
Ornament Out, Shape And Material In
That was the Bauhaus argument and it still holds. A flat disc of coloured glass, a brass-toned collar and a plain flex, with nothing added that does not do a job. It is why a shape drawn a century ago still looks current over a modern table.
Colour That Glows Rather Than Glares
The glass is pigmented rather than painted, so deep brown stays deep and burnt orange stays warm instead of turning acidic under the bulb. Warm white light throughout is what holds those colours together.
Hang It Low
Seventy to eighty centimetres above the tabletop is the sweet spot. Low enough that the wide shade lights faces and food, high enough that nobody is looking into the bulb across dinner. The flex shortens at the ceiling rose to get you there.

Frequently Asked Questions
How high should I hang it?
Around 70 to 80 cm above the surface of a dining table. Over a kitchen island you can go slightly higher. The flex can be shortened at the ceiling rose, so you can set it once and forget about it.
Can I hang more than one?
Yes, and a run of two or three over an island is where this shape looks best. Space them evenly and keep them all at the same drop. Each is sold individually, so order the number of fittings you need.
Is the shade real glass?
Yes, coloured through the material rather than painted on the surface. That is what gives it depth in daylight and a glow rather than a hard shine when lit.
Does it need an electrician?
It installs like any ceiling pendant. If you are swapping an existing fitting and you are confident doing that, it is a straightforward job. For a new fixed point, use an electrician.
Will the colours look like the photos?
Very close, though coloured glass always shifts a little with the light in your room and the bulb you use. The shade profile also varies slightly between colourways, so treat the photographs as the guide to shape as well as colour.
