The Arion Small is a 280mm conical metal ceiling shade in matt black, designed to fit over a standard ceiling rose and provide both light direction and a defined visual anchor point in contemporary interiors. The shade is spun from a single sheet of metal into a wide cone profile with a tight apex and a broad 280mm base, which directs light downward while minimising glare when viewed from across a room.
Designed for dining tables, kitchen islands and low-ceilinged hallways where a large pendant would overwhelm the space, the Arion mounts directly onto a standard UK ceiling rose with the cable running through the apex and the lampholders sitting inside the cone. The 280mm diameter suits tables seating 2-4 people or kitchen islands up to 1.5m in length, and the shallow cone profile keeps the overall drop minimal, making it suitable for rooms with ceiling heights as low as 2.4m.
The matt black finish on the metal has a low-sheen surface that reduces reflections and fingerprints, and the interior is left unpainted steel, which reflects light back out through the base of the cone rather than absorbing it. The shade accepts standard E27 or B22 lampholder fittings (sold separately) and pairs with LED, halogen or filament bulbs up to 60W. Ideal Lux manufactures the Arion in Italy and backs it with a 5-year warranty.

Does this include a ceiling rose and lampholder?
No. The Arion is a shade only, designed to fit over an existing ceiling rose with a separately-purchased lampholder and cable assembly. The shade mounts by threading the cable through the apex and resting the base over the rose.
What size room does the 280mm diameter suit?
The 280mm base diameter works above small dining tables seating 2-4, kitchen islands up to 1.5m, or as a hallway or bathroom pendant where a larger fitting would dominate the space. For larger tables or islands, consider multiple Arion shades spaced evenly.
Is the shade suitable for low ceilings?
Yes. The shallow conical profile keeps the overall drop minimal when paired with a short cable assembly, making the Arion suitable for ceiling heights as low as 2.4m when hung 600-700mm above a surface.
How is the metal finish maintained?
The matt black surface can be wiped with a dry microfibre cloth to remove dust. For more stubborn marks, a barely-damp cloth is acceptable, but avoid soaking the metal and do not use abrasive cleaners or chemical sprays that may damage the finish.
