Customform’s white FAY KOŁO 3 pendant light groups three individually suspended shades made from lacquered steel. Each shade steps out from a narrow upper cylinder to a wider, open-bottomed section. Hung at different levels, they form a compact cluster rather than a broad arrangement of chandelier arms.
Planning a position above furniture
The clustered layout can create a focal point above a dining table, living-room table or kitchen island. It keeps the shades grouped around one position instead of spreading them along the full length of a surface. When planning the installation, compare the light’s diameter with the furniture width and its hanging height with the space between ceiling and tabletop. Leave room to stand up and maintain a clear view across the table.
A bedroom or an office seating area is another possible setting, provided there is sufficient clearance below the pendant. This is a hanging arrangement, not a ceiling-hugging fitting. For an island position, keep it away from the sink and hob; that placement suggestion does not establish splash resistance. Nor does the decorative cluster by itself establish suitable light levels for food preparation or desk work.
Choose E27 bulbs separately
The fitting takes E27 bulbs, which are not included. Customform specifies a bulb power of 60 W; this is not a statement of the complete fitting’s total electricity consumption. Choose the brightness and colour temperature of the bulbs to suit the intended use. The downward openings show where the shades are open, but do not provide a measured beam pattern or a guarantee of illumination across a tabletop.
The bulbs remain visible beneath the shades, so their shape also affects the appearance when the light is off. Bulbs shown in the photographs illustrate the arrangement rather than the contents supplied.
A stepped silhouette in white
The consistent white finish draws attention to the contrast between narrow upper cylinders and wider lower rims. Slim suspension cords and unornamented surfaces suit modern, modernist and minimalist interiors. Its distinctive outline comes from repeating the stepped shade at three levels, rather than adding decorative branches or elaborate detailing.
