Polbena 3 Light Spotlight Bar - Black

Description

DescriptionThe Polbena is a three light spotlight bar for the ceiling, made from steel in a black finish. A straight bar runs either side of a round central ceiling plate and carries three spot heads, each wrapped in a steel mesh cage in black and brass, so the bulb glows through a fine criss-cross lattice. It measures 83cm long, 18cm wide and 21cm high. Each head takes an E27 bulb of up to 40W, and the bulbs are not included, so the colour and style of bulb is yours to choose. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs indoors in dry rooms.
Because each head can be angled on its own, one bar does the work of several lights: point one at a bookcase, another at a picture and the third across the room for general light. That makes it a good choice for living rooms, dining areas, hallways, bedrooms and home offices, and for anyone replacing a single central pendant who wants light exactly where it is needed. The black and brass mesh suits an industrial or warehouse-style scheme and sits comfortably beside dark metal shelving, wood and houseplants. At 83cm long, it spreads light along a room rather than pooling it in one place, which works well in a long, narrow space.
Both the body and the shades are steel, and the whole fitting weighs 4.248KG packed. There is no switch on the light itself, as it is switched at the wall, so it runs from the light switch you already use. It works on 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains, and as a wired-in fitting, it is installed by a qualified electrician. The installation instructions come as a download. When choosing bulbs, keep each one at 40W or less, and a clear filament bulb is worth considering, because the mesh cages leave the bulb on view and it becomes part of the look.

Frequently AskedCan the Polbena go in a bathroom or outdoors?
No. It is rated IP20, which means it is made for dry indoor rooms only, so keep it out of bathrooms, porches and gardens.
What bulbs does the spotlight bar need?
Each of the three heads takes an E27 bulb of up to 40W. Bulbs are not included, so you can choose the style and colour of light you prefer.
How big is the spotlight bar?
It is 83cm long, 18cm wide and 21cm high, so check you have that length of clear ceiling where you plan to fit it.
Can each spotlight be angled separately?
Yes. Each of the three caged heads can be angled on its own, so you can point light at a picture, a shelf or across the room.
Does it have its own switch?
No, there is no switch on the light itself. It is switched at the wall, so it works from your existing wall switch.
What material and finish is the spotlight bar?
The body is steel in a black finish, and the shades are steel mesh cages in black and brass, which suit an industrial-style room well.
