Vintage Pendant — Fabric Shade, Metal Frame, Two Sizes
This pendant combines a metal frame with a fabric shade that fully diffuses the bulb — producing a soft, even glow with no visible hotspot or glare. The hanging format makes it more versatile than a ceiling-mounted version: the drop height can be adjusted during installation to suit your ceiling and the surface below. The black version suits industrial, vintage, and loft-style interiors; the gold finish works better in warmer, more eclectic or Art Deco-influenced spaces. The S (Ø40 cm) is well proportioned above a smaller dining table or in a bedroom; the M (Ø50 cm) creates a stronger visual statement above a larger table or in an open-plan living area. A warm white LED (E27, 2700–3000K) will give the most atmospheric result through the fabric shade. Not dimmable. IP20 with a fabric shade means strictly dry indoor use only. Hardwired connection requires a qualified electrician.
Above a dining table, hang the shade so its bottom sits approximately 70–80 cm above the surface for comfortable, intimate light. In a living room, position it over a coffee table or reading chair to create a defined zone of warmth. The fabric shade reduces glare significantly compared to open or glass alternatives — a practical advantage in rooms where you spend time seated or relaxing. Pair with warm wood tones, linen, or aged brass accessories to reinforce the vintage character.

Common questions
Does this pendant need a professional electrician to install?
+
Yes. This is a hardwired fixture with no plug — it connects directly to your ceiling wiring. We recommend having it installed by a qualified electrician for a safe and compliant fitting.
Which size should I choose for above my dining table?
+
The S (Ø40 cm) suits tables up to around 120–140 cm and smaller dining spaces. The M (Ø50 cm) works better above larger tables from 160 cm and up, or in open-plan areas where a more substantial fixture is needed. Hang the shade approximately 70–80 cm above the table surface for comfortable, glare-free light.
What bulb should I use, and is one included?
+
No bulb is included. We recommend a warm white LED (E27, 2700–3000K) for the best result through the fabric shade. The fabric diffuses the bulb completely, so a standard E27 LED works well — a filament-style bulb is not necessary but adds a nice warm tone if visible through the shade.
Can this pendant be used in a bathroom or above a kitchen sink?
+
No. With an IP20 rating and a fabric shade, this fixture must only be used in dry indoor spaces. It is not suitable for bathrooms, above sinks, or any area exposed to steam or humidity.
Is this pendant compatible with a dimmer switch?
+
No. This fixture is not dimmable and should not be connected to a dimmer circuit. Use a standard on/off switch for safe operation.
