White Flower Petal Pendant Light, 60cm

Moulded white petals on a metal frame, 60 cm across and 23 cm deep. The shallow depth relative to the width is the practical detail: a 60 cm fitting that hangs only 23 cm gives you the spread of a large shade without the bulk, so it can sit over a dining table in a room with a standard ceiling without crowding it.

Moulded petals rather than fabric ones make the difference in a busier room. They hold a crisp, precise edge that fabric cannot, so the flower form reads as a clean geometric arrangement rather than a soft one, and the surface wipes clean, which matters over a dining table or in a kitchen. Light escapes between the petals as well as through the centre, so the fitting glows in segments and casts a petalled pattern onto the ceiling above it. The plain white finish keeps it quiet enough for a minimalist or Nordic room despite the decorative shape.

Available hardwired for a permanent installation or as a plug-in with a cable and in-line switch. Bulb is not included; energy-saving LED or incandescent bulbs of 60 W or less are recommended, and a bulb that runs cool should be used. Hardwired installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician, and the ceiling fixing must be rated for the weight and diameter of the fitting.
