Description
This is the plain rectangular plate that gathers a row of pendants together at the ceiling, drilled with twelve holes so cords can be dropped in a straight line or staggered across the width. At a little over 1.1m long it covers the sort of span a single pendant would light unevenly, and its shallow depth keeps it close to the ceiling rather than standing proud of it. The satin nickel finish is a soft, low shine grey silver, warmer than chrome and quieter than polished steel, so it reads as part of the design rather than something to be hidden.
We reach for a plate like this when someone wants a long light over a dining table, a kitchen island or a reception desk and nothing ready made is quite the right length. Because the hole positions are set out for you, the thinking goes into the cord grips, flex and shades instead; the layout is already resolved. It suits anyone adapting an existing fitting, or bringing components from more than one range together into a single suspension. A run of drops also spreads light evenly along a surface, which one central fitting cannot really do.
It is made from iron, with the satin nickel carried across the face and around the edges, and it has a solid feel that matches the number of drops it is asked to hold. Keep a dry cloth for it and nothing else: detergents will dull the finish and coarse cloths or scouring pads will mark it, so no damp wipes either. It carries a one year warranty. Dry interior rooms are its place, kitchens and hallways included, rather than a bathroom zone or a covered porch. Cords, grips and shades are chosen to suit, so the same plate can look workshop plain or quite restrained depending on what hangs beneath it.

What size is this ceiling plate?
It measures 1100mm long by 400mm wide, with a slim 25mm depth so it sits close against the ceiling.
How many drops will it take?
There are twelve holes, spaced across the rectangle so you can hang a single line, two rows, or a staggered arrangement.
Does it include cords or shades?
No, it is supplied as one piece. The compression cord grips, flex and shades are chosen separately to suit your design.
What is it made from?
Iron, finished in satin nickel. It weighs 4.3kg, which reflects the gauge of the metal.
How should I clean it?
A dry cloth only. Avoid cleaning detergents and anything rough or abrasive, as both will spoil the satin nickel.
