Description
The Walette is a pendant light with a wide, softly curved dome in white steel, topped by a wooden neck in a warm brown tone where the cord meets the dome. It measures 40cm across and has an overall height of 110cm, so it holds its own over a table or in the middle of a room without crowding the space. It takes a single E27 bulb up to a maximum of 40W, and the bulb is not included, which leaves the colour and warmth of the light in your hands. With an IP20 rating, this wooden pendant light is made for indoors and dry rooms only.
The low, open dome directs light downwards, so it works well over a dining table or beside a reading chair in a living room, where you want a pool of light rather than a glare across the whole ceiling. The white finish stays light on the eye against pale walls and gives a crisp contrast against deeper colours such as navy or slate blue, while the wooden neck adds a natural note that sits comfortably alongside wooden furniture and pared-back interiors. It suits anyone who wants a single pendant that does a practical job and still looks considered.
The body is steel with a white finish and the neck is wood, a pairing of cool, clean metal and a warmer natural detail at the top. There is no switch on the light itself: it is switched at the wall, so you turn it on and off with your usual light switch. It hangs from a white cord and a white ceiling rose, which keep the line clean from ceiling to dome. As a wired-in mains light, it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions come as a download. The packed weight is 2.144KG, a figure worth knowing as you plan the fitting.
