ARCO MOD223PL-03BS is a three-light Maytoni pendant with a brass-coloured metal frame. Three curved arms leave a vertical stem at different heights, and each carries a cylindrical shade of clear fluted glass. The manufacturer describes the series as a nod to mid-20th-century design.
Size and hanging height
The fitting is 35 cm in diameter, and the body with its arms is 48.9 cm tall. The overall height from the ceiling adjusts from 54 to 198 cm, so the pendant can hang in a low room or over a table in a tall one, usually with the lower shades 70–80 cm above the tabletop. A 35 cm diameter is a little less than the 40 cm that keeps its proportions over a table 80–90 cm wide.
Each shade is 8 cm across and 18 cm tall. The ceiling rose is 12 cm in diameter and 2.5 cm deep, and the whole lamp weighs 1.78 kg. It is protection class I, so it must be connected to the earth conductor.
Light sources
The pendant has three G9 lampholders, each for a bulb of up to 40 W. G9 is a small capsule bulb that stays visible through the clear glass, so its appearance matters here too. The colour and brightness of the light depend on the bulb you choose. The manufacturer does not provide for dimming this fitting.
Which interiors it suits
Fluted glass and the brass colour of the frame combine classic details with the plain, modern geometry of the arms. The pendant is intended for living rooms, bedrooms and dining rooms, especially over a table, as well as hotels and restaurants. The ARCO series also includes the six-light pendant MOD223PL-06BS and the MOD223WL wall lights.
