Description
The Rio 9 Linear 5 Light Chandelier sets five small dome shades in a row beneath a slim iron rail, all in a matt black finish. The fitting is 120cm long and 9.5cm tall, and each shade is 9cm across, so the light runs in a long, low line rather than gathering in one spot. It takes five GX53 lamps across its five shades and runs on a 220 to 240V supply. The iron structure is paired with a textile cable, and the ceiling canopy is 8cm across, small enough to sit neatly against the ceiling.
We think it belongs over a long dining table, where five points of light spread evenly from one end to the other and nobody sits in shadow. It works just as well above a desk run in a home office, along a bar counter or over a reception desk in a shop or studio. It is rated IP20, so it is for dry rooms only. The look is modern with a Scandinavian plainness, so it settles into pale timber, white walls and simple furniture as easily as it does into darker, moodier schemes.
The structure is iron in a matt black finish, and the shades and rail share the same colour, so the fitting reads as one clean line. It is switched on and off rather than dimmed, so there is no dimmer to match. It comes on a 2m cable and carries a 3 year guarantee. As a mains fitting it is for a qualified electrician to install. When styling, centre it along the length of the table so the outer shades sit just inside its ends, and the line of light will echo the line of the table beneath it.
