Description
A broad faux silk drum hangs beneath an antique brass suspension, with a frosted acrylic diffuser closing the underside so the lamps read as a soft sheet of light rather than a row of bright points. The shade is a black and white laminate: black on the outer face, pale within, which keeps the light travelling downwards. Five E27 lamps sit inside, so there is plenty of output from a single ceiling point. At 60cm across it is a wide shape, and it wants a room with a little air around it.
We would hang this over a dining table or a kitchen island, where the width answers a long table top and the diffuser keeps glare out of the eyes of anyone sitting beneath. It suits a hallway or a landing just as well, and the suspension is long enough for a tall stairwell, where the shade can be read from the floor below and the gallery above. Each lamp takes up to 20W, and with suitable lamps and a dimmer on the circuit the light can be taken right down for the end of an evening. Keep it to dry rooms: kitchens, dining rooms and halls yes, bathrooms no.
The metalwork wears an antique brass finish, a warm gold with the shine knocked off it, which is why the black shade sits so comfortably against it. Dust the outer face of the shade with a soft brush rather than a cloth, and wipe the acrylic diffuser with a barely damp cloth once the power is off and the lamps are cold. It carries a one year warranty. Lamps are sold separately, and warm white GLS lamps are what we would put in it. The wider Baymont range runs to universal flush fittings and linear pendants in polished chrome, satin nickel, white, satin black and this same antique brass, so a matching fitting for the hall or the landing is easy enough to find.

Frequently Asked
How big is the shade?
It measures 600mm across and 220mm deep, so allow clear space around it and plan for a table or island of reasonable length underneath.
How far down does it hang?
The drop runs from 405mm at its shortest to 3330mm at its longest, which is why it copes with both a standard ceiling and a stairwell void. The body itself is 315mm high.
What lamps does it take?
Five E27 lamps, up to 20W each. LED GLS A60 lamps are the recommended choice and are not included.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, provided you fit dimmable lamps and a compatible dimmer on the circuit. No dimmer is supplied with the pendant.
What is the diffuser made of?
Frosted acrylic, fitted across the bottom of the shade. It softens the light and hides the lamps from view when you look up at the fitting.
How should I clean the faux silk shade?
A soft brush or the upholstery attachment on a vacuum, used gently. Avoid water and sprays on the fabric; save the damp cloth for the acrylic diffuser.
