Truro 1 Pendant Light - Black & Copper

The Truro 1 is a single pendant light with a rounded dome shade in steel, finished black outside and copper-coloured inside. It hangs on a slim black cord from a small black ceiling rose, measures 110cm in overall height and 21cm across the shade, and gives focused light without a bulky shade. It takes one E27 bulb of up to 60W, and the bulb is not included, so you choose the brightness and colour of light yourself. Its IP rating is IP20, which settles where it belongs: indoors, in a dry room.

Hung low over a dining table, the dome directs light down onto the surface, and the copper-coloured lining catches the eye from beneath the rim. It sits just as well in a hallway, above a desk or beside a bed, and at 21cm across it suits smaller rooms where a wide shade would crowd the space. Two or three hung in a line over a long table look tidy and deliberate. The black and copper pairing works with modern, Scandinavian and industrial interiors, and with wooden furniture, plain plaster or painted walls alike.

Steel is a strong, rigid metal, so the dome keeps its clean, rounded shape. There is no switch on the light itself: it is switched at the wall. As a mains light wired into the ceiling, it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions are available as a download. Packed, it weighs 0.861KG, so it is light and easy to handle. When choosing a bulb, pick an E27 of 60W or less; if the pendant hangs at eye level, a frosted bulb keeps the light softer and hides the filament.
