Description
The Kirenne is a fabric pendant light with a faceted, geometric shade: natural-coloured string is wound tightly across a black steel frame, so the dark edges trace a crisp diamond outline while the warm fibres fill the panels between them. It is 17cm long, 14.5cm wide and 110cm tall overall, a compact size that sits comfortably in a smaller room. It takes a single E27 bulb of up to 40W, and the bulb is not included. Its IP20 rating means it is made for dry rooms indoors, so it belongs in a living room, bedroom or hallway rather than a bathroom or a porch.
In the living room it hangs nicely above a coffee table or between a pair of armchairs, where the black and natural pairing sits easily beside wood, rattan and soft neutral colours. Its modest size works well beside a bed, in a hallway or hung in a row above a dining table or kitchen island, and the earthy string brings welcome texture to plain painted walls. For anyone after a black pendant light that feels warm rather than industrial, this is the one we would point to first.
The frame is steel in a black finish, and the cord and ceiling canopy are black to match, so the fitting reads as one clean line from ceiling to shade. Because the string panels are open rather than solid, the bulb stays partly visible through the gaps, which makes a decorative filament bulb well worth choosing. There is no switch on the pendant itself; it runs from your wall switch on a 220-240V, 50/60Hz supply. As a wired-in mains light, it should be installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions come as a download. Packed, it weighs 0.861KG.

Frequently Asked
Can the Kirenne pendant go in a bathroom?
No. It is rated IP20, which means it is made for dry rooms indoors, so we would keep it to living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and dining areas.
Which bulb does the Kirenne take?
It takes one E27 bulb up to a maximum of 40W. The bulb is not included, and because the string shade is open, a decorative filament bulb looks especially good.
How big is the pendant?
It is 17cm long and 14.5cm wide, with an overall height of 110cm, so it suits smaller rooms or a row above a table.
Does the pendant have its own switch?
No, it has no switch of its own. It works from your wall switch and runs on a 220-240V, 50/60Hz supply.
What materials are the frame and shade?
The frame is black steel and the shade is a natural fabric, wound as string across the frame to give a faceted, geometric outline.
