Linear Black Chandelier Light | CLMJU015B

The Linear Black Chandelier is a long, shallow oval shade in black stainless steel, hung on two slim rods from a rectangular canopy. It comes in two lengths: 120 cm (47.2″) with four light sources, or 153 cm (60.2″) with six. The shade stands 15 cm (5.9″) high, and the fixture hangs 80 cm (31.5″) from the ceiling with the standard rods. It is made for a kitchen island or a long dining table.

The steel

Shade, rods and canopy are stainless steel with a black finish. The long, low oval draws a single dark line over the island or table, and it reads clearly against pale stone, oak and white walls.

Sizing and placement

The 120 cm (47.2″) version suits a kitchen island or dining table of about 180 to 220 cm (71 to 87″). The 153 cm (60.2″) version suits a table or island of about 220 to 280 cm (87 to 110″). Hang the rim 75 to 90 cm (30 to 35″) above the surface. Because the shade is shallow, it keeps sightlines open across the island or table.

Suspension

The 120 cm version hangs from a canopy of 60 × 10 cm (23.6 × 3.9″) and the 153 cm version from a canopy of 90 × 10 cm (35.4 × 3.9″), both 2.5 cm (1″) deep. With the standard rods the overall drop is 80 cm (31.5″), which over an island or table suits ceilings of about 2.4 to 2.6 m (8 to 8.5 ft). Longer or shorter rods are made to order for other ceiling heights.

The light

The light sources sit inside the shade and shine straight down, so the pendant lights the surface below and the shade hides the lamps from view. It gives a focused, even light along the island or table, and the ceiling above stays soft. In a large open-plan room, pair it with softer ambient light elsewhere.

Lamping and installation

Four light sources in the 120 cm version, six in the 153 cm version. Warm white 2700K. The 120 cm version weighs about 7 to 10 kg (15 to 22 lb) and the 153 cm about 9 to 13 kg (20 to 29 lb). The fixture is hardwired; have your electrician fix the canopy to a joist or reinforced blocking.

Care

Switch off and let the lamps cool. Dust with a soft dry cloth. Do not use metal polish or abrasive cleaners: they can scratch and dull the black finish.

Made to order

Every piece is made to order. Rod length can be set to your ceiling height, and dimming is available on request.
