Losmora Pendant Light 23.5cm - Black & Gold

The Losmora is a pendant light with a round shade of fine gold steel ribs that curve down from a black cap into an open globe. A slim black cord drops from a matching black ceiling rose, so the gold shade carries the colour while the black details frame it neatly. The shade is 23.5cm across and the pendant measures 110cm in overall height. It takes a single E27 bulb of up to 40W; the bulb is not included, which leaves the choice of bulb to you. Its IP20 rating means it is made for dry rooms indoors, so it belongs in living spaces and stays away from bathrooms and the garden.

We think it is at its best in a bedroom, hanging beside the bed over a bedside table or centred above the bed itself, where the warm gold stands out against a deeper wall colour. At 23.5cm across it is compact enough for a smaller room, and two make a neat pair either side of a double bed. Because the ribs are open, the bulb stays on view, so a decorative filament bulb repays a little thought; it becomes part of the look whenever the light is lit. It suits anyone who wants a metallic accent without a heavy, closed shade.

The body is steel, finished in black and gold, with the black kept to the cap, cord and ceiling rose so the gold ribs take the eye. There is no switch on the pendant itself, as it is switched at the wall. As a mains light wired into the ceiling, it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions come as a download. Packed, it weighs 2.095KG. Our practical tip: have an E27 bulb of no more than 40W ready, so the light can be used the day it is fitted.

Can the Losmora pendant hang in a bathroom?

No. It is rated IP20, which means it is made for dry rooms indoors, so we keep it out of bathrooms and away from the garden.

Is a bulb included?

No, the bulb is not included. The pendant takes a single E27 bulb with a maximum of 40W, so choose one before it is fitted.

How big is the shade?

The shade is 23.5cm across, and the pendant measures 110cm in overall height, which keeps it compact enough for a bedroom or a smaller room.

Does the pendant have its own switch?

No, there is no switch on the pendant itself. It is switched at the wall, so you control it from your existing light switch.

What material is the shade?

The body is steel, finished in black and gold, with fine gold ribs forming the round shade beneath a black cap.

Which bulb suits the open shade?

Any E27 bulb up to 40W fits, and because the bulb stays on view through the open ribs, a decorative filament bulb is a good choice.
