The small Kai pendant by Alora Mood has a tall, woven, rattan-look shade: a cylindrical body with a slightly flared lower rim and a rounded "shoulder" at the top. It hangs from a gold chain with a round brushed-gold canopy. The frame is steel, and the fitting is distributed by Elstead Lighting.
Size and hanging height
The shade is 28.5 cm across and 40.6 cm tall — narrower but taller than the flush light in the series. The chain is 182.9 cm long, and the overall height of 61 to 233.5 cm is set during installation by removing links. Over a table the lower edge usually sits 70–80 cm above the top; with a 75 cm table and a 250 cm ceiling that means an overall height of about 95–105 cm. The narrow shade suits a small table, and two or three over a longer table or island.
The pendant weighs 2.2 kg and is Class I — the earth conductor must be connected.
Bulb and light
The E27 socket takes a bulb of up to 60 W, not supplied. The weave diffuses the light and lets it through as a warm, speckled glow, so the bulb does not dazzle those sitting below. Over a table, an LED bulb of about 800 lm at 2700–3000 K works well. With a dimmable bulb and a dimmer, brightness can be turned down.
Which rooms it suits
The manufacturer lists the living room, bedroom, dining room and corridor. A natural weave on a gold chain is a rustic, boho form that matches the Kai wall light and flush light.
