Brolvelle Linear Pendant Light - Black

The Brolvelle is a linear pendant light that hangs three geometric cage shades in a row from a single straight ceiling bar. The body is steel in a black finish, with black cords, and each shade is an open framework of slim angled struts that widens from the top and closes in a faceted base. The light measures 96cm long, 20cm wide and 110cm high overall. Each shade takes one E27 bulb of up to 40W, so the fitting holds three in total, and bulbs are not included. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs indoors in a dry room.

Hung over a dining table, three shades in a line spread light along the full length of the top rather than pooling it in the centre, which suits a long rectangular table far better than a single pendant. The black cages read strongly against pale ceilings and sit happily with exposed brick, dark timber and industrial styling, yet the open frames keep the look light rather than heavy. Because the cages are open, the bulbs themselves are on show, so this is a good fitting for a decorative bulb with a visible filament or warm amber glass. Its IP20 rating keeps it to dry indoor rooms, so it is not one for a bathroom or a covered porch.

There is no switch on the fitting itself, because it is switched at the wall, and as a mains light it is installed by a qualified electrician. It runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz. Steel is strong and rigid, which is why the slim struts of each cage can stay so fine. When you choose bulbs, keep each one at 40W or less and pick a shape that sits comfortably inside the cage. The installation instructions come as a download, and the packed weight is 3.73KG, which is worth knowing when you plan the fitting.

Can the Brolvelle hang in a bathroom?

No. Its IP20 rating means it is made for dry indoor rooms, so it should stay out of bathrooms, wet rooms and anywhere outdoors.

Which bulbs does it take?

It takes three E27 bulbs, one in each shade, at a maximum of 40W each. Bulbs are not included, so you will need to buy them separately.

How big is the pendant?

It is 96cm long, 20cm wide and 110cm high overall, so it suits a long dining table better than a small round one.

Does it have its own switch?

No, there is no switch on the fitting. It is switched at the wall, so you turn it on and off from a wall switch.

What material is the pendant?

The body, including the ceiling bar and the three cage shades, is steel in a black finish, and the hanging cords are black to match.

Will the bulbs be visible?

Yes. The cages are open frameworks of slim struts, so each bulb shows through clearly, which makes a decorative bulb a good choice.
