Description
The Persley is a paper pendant light in black: a tapered, woven-look shade hung from a black cord and a round ceiling rose, with a black steel body. The shade is 22cm in diameter and the light measures 110cm in overall height, a compact size that suits a smaller room or a pair hung side by side. It takes a single E27 bulb, the common screw-fit cap, and the bulb is not included, which leaves the colour and brightness of the light entirely your choice. It is rated IP20, which settles where it belongs: indoors, in a dry room.
Hang it over a kitchen island, a dining table or a bedside table, where a single pendant marks out the space beneath it. Because the cord, the ceiling rose and the shade are all black, it sits comfortably in a monochrome scheme, blends into a dark painted ceiling, or stands out as a crisp graphic shape against white walls and pale wood. The woven-look shade brings texture to a modern room, so it suits anyone who wants a natural feel without adding colour. At 1.25KG it is a light pendant, and paper is a light material, so the shade looks airy rather than heavy.
The body is steel and the shade is paper, both in black, so the colour runs unbroken from the ceiling rose to the shade. There is no switch on the light itself: it is switched at the wall. It runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains, and as a light wired into the ceiling it should be installed by a qualified electrician; the installation instructions come as a download. Paper does not take kindly to damp, so keep the shade dry and dust it now and then with a soft, dry brush. Have an E27 bulb ready before the electrician arrives, and the light is working on its first evening.
