Description
The Reiko is a compact pendant light in matt black, with a smooth aluminium shade that rises to a cone of natural ash wood at its top. The shade is rounded and open at the base, so its light is directed downwards, while the pale grain of the ash gives the dark metal a warm, natural contrast. It hangs on a textile cable and measures 24cm tall and 21cm across, with an 8cm ceiling canopy, so it sits as a neat, modest pendant rather than a large centrepiece.
Its size makes it a natural choice wherever you want light close to a surface. Hung over a dining table, a desk or a breakfast bar, it brings the light down to where you sit, and two or three in a line work well along a longer table. It suits a hallway, a landing or a bedroom too, where a pendant beside the bed frees up space on the bedside table. The look is Scandinavian and modern: clean lines, a dark matt surface and a touch of real wood, which sit comfortably in pared-back rooms, alongside oak or pine furniture, or against white walls and pale floors. It is made for use indoors.
We like how honest the materials are: an aluminium shade in matt black, a base of natural ash wood and a textile covered cable, with nothing added for effect. As a mains fitting, it should be installed by a qualified electrician. For styling, let the ash pick up other natural materials in the room, such as a timber table top, linen or rattan, and keep the surroundings calm so the contrast of black metal and pale wood can do the work.
