Kos 3 Light Bar Pendant Light - White & Black

The Kos is a 3-light bar pendant featuring matt white conical shades suspended on black cables from a 950mm linear canopy. Each shade houses a single E27 bulb (sold separately) and measures approximately 170mm at the widest point of the cone. The black-and-white palette and geometric shade profile give the fitting a minimalist, functional appearance suited to modern interiors.

Designed for kitchen islands, dining tables and breakfast bars, the Kos provides three points of directional light across a span of roughly 950mm. The drop is adjustable on installation between 350mm and 1500mm, allowing the pendants to be set at the appropriate height above a worktop or table surface. In a typical kitchen island application the shades sit 700-800mm above the counter; over a dining table they typically hang 650-750mm above the tabletop depending on ceiling height.

The matt white finish on the metal shades diffuses light softly downwards while the black cables, ceiling rose and collar fittings create tonal contrast against white or light-painted ceilings. The combined weight of 3.35kg provides structural presence without requiring reinforced ceiling fixings in most residential installations. Dimmer compatibility depends on the bulb choice, pairing the Kos with dimmable E27 LEDs and a compatible trailing-edge dimmer allows light level control from full brightness down to low ambient levels.

The linear canopy fixes to a standard UK ceiling rose and the three cables run parallel rather than spreading radially, giving the installation a tidier appearance when viewed from below. The conical shade design directs most of the light output downwards rather than sideways, making the Kos more suitable for task lighting over work surfaces than for general ambient room lighting.

What bulbs does the Kos take?

The Kos takes three E27 (Edison screw) bulbs, sold separately. Most users pair it with warm-white LED bulbs between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K for kitchen or dining applications. The maximum wattage depends on bulb type. LED bulbs typically run cooler and allow higher equivalent brightness than halogen.

Is it dimmable?

Yes, provided you use dimmable E27 bulbs and pair them with a compatible dimmer switch. LED bulbs require a trailing-edge dimmer rather than the older leading-edge type. Check the bulb packaging for dimmer compatibility before purchasing.

What height should the pendants hang above a dining table or kitchen island?

For a kitchen island the shades typically sit 700-800mm above the worktop. Over a dining table they usually hang 650-750mm above the tabletop. The exact height depends on your ceiling height and personal preference. The drop is adjustable between 350mm and 1500mm during installation.

Can the drop length of each pendant be adjusted individually?

The drop is typically set during installation by adjusting the cable length inside the canopy. All three pendants usually hang at the same level for visual symmetry, but the cables can be set to different lengths if the application requires a staggered arrangement.
