Mantra BOLONIA 8356 black LED pendant light, 7 W CCT

Mantra BOLONIA 8356 is a black LED pendant with a cylindrical aluminium body. Its narrow tube hangs from a black cable and directs light through the lower end. This is the 7 W version, rather than the longer 10 W fitting in the same collection.

Separate the body size from the drop

The tube itself is 25 cm long and 5.2 cm in diameter. These measurements describe the visible body, not the complete distance from the ceiling. Mantra specifies a 2 m cable, adjustable height and a height range of 25–225 cm. Compare the intended drop with your ceiling height and the position of the table or worktop before choosing a mounting point. A photograph cannot establish that clearance for your room.

A single narrow pendant can mark a selected area above a table or kitchen island. Several separate fittings can be spaced along a longer surface, with the number and spacing determined by the actual layout. The plain aluminium cylinder, without a broad shade, suits a modern, minimalist scheme. A black cable continues the body's colour towards the ceiling rather than introducing a contrasting suspension.

Selectable colour temperature, not dimming

The integrated LED light source is included. The manufacturer specifies 7 W, 560 lm and a 36° beam angle. This is directional lighting for a defined area. When planning a kitchen or dining space, consider the other light sources as well; one tube should not automatically be treated as a replacement for the room's entire lighting arrangement.

A switch shown in the instructions provides a choice of 2700, 3200 or 4000 K. This is not continuously variable colour temperature or app control. The warmer settings differ in appearance from the neutral white of 4000 K. Selecting the light colour does not adjust brightness: Mantra identifies the 8356 as non-dimmable.

Ceiling connection and servicing

The instructions show a screw-mounted ceiling canopy and connection to a 220–240 V supply. The fitting is Class II. It does not use a conventional replaceable bulb; work on the LED module and power unit is marked for a specialist in the instructions. Mantra specifies a five-year warranty.
