Prosena Wooden Pendant Light 40cm - Black, Wood & White

The Prosena is a wooden pendant light with a round, woven shade that hangs from a black ceiling canopy on a slim black cord. Its body is black steel, and the shade combines fabric and wood, with pale strands crossing between black bands for a crisp black, wood and white look. The shade is 40cm in diameter and the light measures 110cm in overall height. It takes an E27 bulb, which is not included, and its IP20 rating settles where it goes: indoors, in a dry room.

We think it works best where a pendant can be the centrepiece of the room, such as over a dining table, where the round shade sits comfortably above the place settings, or in a living room above a low coffee table. The open weave lets light pass between the strands, so the bulb shows softly through the shade, and the crossing pattern still gives the eye something to enjoy even when the bulb is unlit. The monochrome finish sits easily alongside pale walls, natural timber and grey fabrics, bringing texture to a plain room without adding strong colour.

The black steel body is matched by a black canopy and cord, so everything at the ceiling stays discreet and lets the shade do the talking. There is no switch on the pendant itself, as it is switched at the wall, and because it is wired into the ceiling it should be installed by a qualified electrician. It weighs 0.78KG, so it is easy to lift into place, and the installation instructions come as a download. Since the E27 bulb is not included, the brightness and colour of the light are your choice: a warm white E27 bulb suits a dining room or living room in the evening.
