Polbena Ceiling Spotlight - Black

Description

DescriptionThe Polbena is a single ceiling spotlight with a black steel body and a cylindrical steel mesh shade in black and brass. A round plate fixes to the ceiling, and the shade is held in a black bracket that lets the head tilt, so the light points where it is needed. It measures 18cm long, 11cm wide and 20cm high. It takes one E27 bulb of up to 40W, which is not included, so the choice of bulb is yours. With an IP20 rating it is made for indoor, dry rooms, rather than bathrooms or anywhere outdoors.
It suits a hallway, a landing, a study or a bedroom, anywhere a single directed light earns its place. The brass mesh breaks the glow into a soft criss-cross of light and shadow, and a clear filament bulb looks handsome inside the cage. The same round plate also sits neatly on a wall, beside a bed for reading or above a sideboard, which gives you more freedom than a light made only for the ceiling. Paired with black fittings, warm timber or industrial

details, it brings a little workshop character without crowding a room.
Both the body and the shade are steel. Steel is strong and holds its shape well, and here the black frame bands each end of the brass mesh. There is no switch on the light itself: it is switched at the wall, from your usual light switch, and it runs on 220-240V mains. As a wired mains light, it is installed by a qualified electrician. Installation instructions come as a download, and the spotlight weighs 1.359KG packed. When choosing a bulb, keep to an E27 cap and no more than 40W; a warm filament bulb shows off the brass cage best.
