Description
The Bonn is a drum pendant light with a shade of veined alabaster, hung from a metallic blue stem on a cream textile cable. The drum is shallow and gently tapered, 25cm across, with a shade just 6.7cm tall, so it sits overhead as a low, quiet band of stone rather than a deep lampshade. It takes one GX53 lamp, and the maker gives its light output as 360 lumens at 2700K, a warm white, with a CRI of 85. The beam angle is a wide 180 degrees, so the light spreads broadly across the room rather than pooling in a narrow spot.
This is a modern pendant for rooms where a softer, warmer light suits: over a bedside table in place of a lamp, above a small dining table, in a hallway, a study or a reading corner. At 25cm across it holds its own alone in a compact room, and a pair, one either side of a bed, or a row over a longer dining table works just as well. Its cable is 1.5m long. It is rated IP20, so it is for dry rooms only. Control is a simple on-off switch rather than dimming, so it runs from an ordinary wall switch with no dimmer to choose.
The shade is alabaster, a stone with gentle veining through its pale ground, and against it the metallic blue stem and cream textile cable add a cool accent and a softer line. The fitting meets the ceiling with an 8cm canopy. It is a mains fitting, so it is for a qualified electrician to install, and it carries a 3 year guarantee. For styling, we like it with warm timber, linen and brushed brass, where the cream cable blends in, or with navy and slate elsewhere in the room to pick up the blue of the stem.
