Eve 3 Light Pendant Light - Polished Chrome with Black Shade

The Eve is a 500mm diameter drum pendant light combining a black fabric shade with a frosted inner diffuser and a polished chrome frame. The chrome frame curves outward from the central stem in three flowing arms before rejoining beneath the shade canopy, creating an open sculptural structure. Three E27 bulb fittings sit inside the drum shade, hidden by the fabric and frosted liner. Bulbs are sold separately.

Designed for dining tables, kitchen islands and living room ceiling positions, the Eve provides diffused ambient light through the frosted inner layer while the black outer fabric defines the pendant's presence in daylight. The 1500mm maximum drop is adjustable on installation, allowing the pendant to sit 700-800mm above a table in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or higher. The polished chrome finish reflects surrounding light and pairs with both warm-toned and cooler contemporary interiors.

The black fabric shade shows a textured weave that adds depth under direct light, while the frosted liner prevents glare from the bulbs and softens the light output. The combined weight of 3.2kg gives the fitting a substantial presence without requiring reinforced ceiling fixings in most installations. The chrome arms, shade and coordinating ceiling canopy form a single cohesive piece when suspended.

Dimmer compatibility depends on the bulbs chosen and the dimmer model installed. The pendant accepts any standard E27 LED, halogen or filament bulb up to the wattage limit specified by Mantra for this fitting. Most users pair the Eve with three warm-white LED bulbs between 6-10W each and 2700K-3000K for dining and living room use.

What bulbs does the Eve take?

The Eve uses three E27 (Edison screw) bulbs, sold separately. Most users choose warm-white LED bulbs between 6-10W each and 2700K-3000K for ambient dining and living room lighting. Check the specification table for the maximum wattage per bulb.

Is the Eve dimmable?

Yes, provided you use dimmable bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch. Dimmer compatibility depends on the specific bulb type and dimmer model, so confirm compatibility before installation.

What drop height works above a dining table?

The 1500mm maximum drop is adjustable on installation. For a dining table the Eve typically sits 700-800mm above the table surface, which works in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.4m or above. Lower ceilings can accommodate the pendant if the drop is shortened during fitting.

Does the shade texture show when the light is on?

The black fabric shade has a visible weave texture that adds depth under daylight and direct light. When the bulbs are on, the frosted inner diffuser softens the light output and prevents the bulb filaments from being visible through the fabric.
