PEAR S is a pendant lamp with a drop-shaped shade of clear glass, 22 cm wide and 27 cm tall. The glass hangs on a black cable beneath a cap of brass-plated steel, and a black cylindrical canopy fixes to the ceiling. The fitting is made in Poland.
Dimensions and hanging height
From the ceiling to the lower edge of the shade the lamp measures at most 180 cm. The cable can be shortened, but the manufacturer states that the height must be changed by a qualified electrician β there is no adjustment you set yourself. Above a table it is usually shortened so the bottom of the shade hangs 70β80 cm above the top.
A 22 cm shade is roughly half the diameter of a typical pendant over an 80β90 cm wide table. A single PEAR S will therefore light a smaller table or part of a worktop, while a longer table calls for several in a row. The canopy is 5.5 cm across and 7.5 cm tall and fixes on a mounting bracket. The box contains the fitting with cable and canopy, the glass shade, screws for the lampholder assembly and assembly instructions.
Bulb and light
The lamp has one E27 socket and no bulb is included. The manufacturer permits LED sources only, up to 25 W β an incandescent or halogen bulb must not be fitted even though the thread matches. The glass is clear and does not diffuse, so the bulb is visible through the shade and its shape and colour define how the lamp looks.
Among others, the manufacturer suggests decorative E27 LED vintage bulbs at 2200 K for PEAR S β very warm, amber light close to a candle flame. An ordinary opal LED bulb gives brighter, more diffused light but shows clearly as a white bulb inside the glass.
Build and connection
The shade is glass, the cap brass-plated steel and the canopy black lacquered steel. The fitting is protection class I, so it must be connected to the protective earth β the ceiling box needs an earth conductor. The manufacturer intends the lamp for indoor use only.
Nowodvorski classes PEAR S as modern in style: a smooth, unadorned glass form on a thin cable. The lamp suits the living room, bedroom, kitchen and dining room, as well as offices, studies, hotels and restaurants.
