Reiko Flat Pendant Light with Wood Base - Blue

The Reiko is a compact pendant light with a low, flattened dome shade in blue aluminium, topped by a collar of natural ash wood and hung on a textile cable. The pairing is simple and works well: a smooth, cool blue shade beneath the warm grain of the ash, giving the fitting a modern Scandinavian feel without any fuss. It measures 15cm tall and 21cm across, with an 8cm canopy at the ceiling, so it is a small, neat pendant rather than a large centrepiece. The open dome sends its light downwards, onto the surface beneath it.

Its size makes it a good choice wherever you want light close to a surface. We like it hung low over a dining table, a desk or a bar counter, and two or three in a row along a long table look considered rather than crowded. It also works on its own beside a bed in place of a bedside lamp, freeing the table top, or in a hallway or on a landing where a bigger fitting would feel heavy. The blue brings colour to a plain white or grey room, while the ash suits oak floors, pale wood furniture and the clean lines of a modern or Scandinavian interior. It is a fitting for dry indoor rooms.

The shade is aluminium with a smooth blue finish, and the collar is natural ash, so as with any real wood the grain differs a little from one fitting to the next. The textile cable gives a softer, more finished look than a plain plastic flex. As a mains fitting, it is for a qualified electrician to install. For styling, hang it over a pale wood table so the ash picks up the tone of the top, and partner the blue with white, natural linen or warm brass for a fresh, easy feel.
