Description
The Solyra is a 59cm diameter wire pendant built from a brown-finished metal cage in a teardrop profile, suspended on a fabric-covered cable. The cage comprises vertical ribs that taper from a cylindrical neck to a wide-bellied base before narrowing again at the bottom, creating a lantern-like silhouette. A single E27 bulb fitting sits at the centre, with the wire ribs around it acting as a diffusion cage rather than a solid shade.
Designed for high-ceilinged spaces, the Solyra suits dining tables in rooms with 2.7m+ ceiling heights, entrance halls with double-height voids, and open-plan kitchen-living areas where a larger pendant can anchor the lighting scheme without overwhelming the sightlines. The 57cm height of the pendant itself means it requires adequate drop clearance — typically 60-80cm above a dining table surface, which places the ceiling rose at 2.4-2.7m depending on installation height.
The brown metal finish carries a subtle metallic undertone that shifts depending on ambient light, giving the pendant depth under daylight and a warmer appearance when lit from within. The wire construction allows the bulb to be visible through the cage, so pairing the Solyra with a decorative filament LED or vintage-style bulb (sold separately) adds to the overall effect. The fabric cable softens the industrial edge of the metal frame and is available in a complementary brown tone that integrates with the pendant body.
At 595mm diameter, the Solyra occupies substantial visual space and works best where that scale is intentional — over a dining table that seats six or more, in a double-height hallway, or as the centrepiece in a room where other lighting is recessed or minimal. The IP20 rating limits it to dry indoor use only.

Frequently Asked
Is the Solyra dimmable?
Yes, when paired with a dimmable E27 bulb and a compatible dimmer switch. The pendant itself does not contain dimming electronics, so dimmer compatibility depends on the bulb chosen.
What bulb does it take?
The pendant takes a single E27 (Edison screw) bulb, sold separately. Most users pair this with a 6-10W LED filament bulb or a vintage-style squirrel-cage bulb to complement the open wire cage design.
What ceiling height is needed?
The 57cm pendant height plus typical suspension cable means the Solyra works best in rooms with ceiling heights of 2.7m or above. For dining table use, the pendant typically hangs 60-80cm above the table surface, which requires at least 2.4m floor-to-ceiling clearance to avoid head-height issues when standing.
Can it be used in a bathroom?
No. The IP20 rating limits the Solyra to dry indoor spaces only. It is not suitable for bathrooms, kitchens directly above hobs or sinks, or any area where moisture or steam is present.
