Description
The Nilbine is a pendant light with an open geometric cage shade in brushed brass steel, its slim wires shaped into a faceted teardrop that leaves the bulb in full view. A small brass cone caps the cage, a matching round ceiling rose sits against the ceiling, and a dark fabric cable runs between them. The shade is 17.5cm in diameter and the whole light is 130cm tall overall. It takes a single E27 bulb of up to 60W, and the bulb is not included, so the choice of lamp is yours. With an IP20 rating, it belongs indoors in a dry room.
Because the cage is open, the bulb is part of the look, which is why a clear, decorative lamp suits it so well. We like it hung low over a dining table, a kitchen island or a breakfast bar, where the slim shade adds warmth and shape without crowding the room, and several in a row work nicely along a longer table. It is just as at home in a hallway, a bedroom or a living room corner where a single light is wanted. Brushed brass sits comfortably beside white walls, pale timber and black furniture, so it suits anyone who likes an industrial look softened by a warm metal.
The body is steel with a brushed brass finish, which gives a soft, low sheen rather than a mirror shine. There is no switch on the light itself, as it is switched at the wall. Being a wired-in mains light, it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions come as a download. Packed, it weighs just 0.641KG. Before fitting day, have an E27 bulb of 60W or less ready, and a clear lamp lets the glow show through the brass wires.

Frequently Asked
Is the bulb included?
No, the bulb is not included. The pendant takes a single E27 bulb with a maximum of 60W, so you can choose the lamp you prefer.
Can this pendant go in a bathroom or outdoors?
No. It is rated IP20, which means it is meant for dry indoor rooms such as a dining room, kitchen, hallway or bedroom.
How big is the shade?
The geometric cage shade is 17.5cm in diameter, and the whole light measures 130cm in overall height.
Does the light have its own switch?
No, there is no switch on the pendant itself, so it is turned on and off from the wall switch.
What material is the shade?
The body is steel with a brushed brass finish, and the open wire cage, the cone and the ceiling rose all share that same warm colour.
Which bulb works best?
Any E27 bulb up to 60W fits, and because the cage is open, a clear decorative lamp shows off the brass wires well.
