Small blue Airplane pendant light 1041025

Samolot small 1041025 is a pendant light in the shape of a wooden biplane. The fuselage, engine cowling and vertical tail are light blue; the wings, struts, propeller and wheels are a darker blue. Two white cords drop from a cylindrical ceiling rose in the same light blue, pass through holes in the upper wing and are knotted underneath. A globe bulb sits between the wings; the airplane has no shade.

How large it is and where it hangs

Fuselage with wings is 31.5 cm long, 28.5 cm wide and 14.5 cm high. Total drop from the ceiling to the underside of the wheels is 70 cm. The rose is 5.5 cm across — a narrow cylinder, not a wide plate, so its outline stays visible on the ceiling.

Set the 31.5 cm length against the width of the furniture the lamp will hang over: subtract 31.5 cm and you see the margin at the sides. The 70 cm drop is from the ceiling to the lowest point of the fitting, not the height of the airplane itself — compare it with your room height.

Which light source you need to buy

The fitting has one E27 holder and takes a lamp of up to 60 W. No source is included, so you choose colour and brightness. The 60 W limit is the lamp maximum, not the draw of the empty fitting; an E27 LED is allowed. Supply is 230 V.

The maker points to a globe lamp — spherical, in opal glass — in a warm, slightly yellow colour. With no shade, the globe is visible from every side and is what shines; opal glass spreads the light, a clear bulb would glare. The holder sticks out under the fuselage, so the lamp screws in from below, between the lower wing and the fuselage.

What it is made of and which room it is for

The body is solid pine, finished in water-based paints in two shades of blue. The spec lists the colour as blue; the photos show a light fuselage and darker wings. The maker states that the paints and oils carry a safety certificate for children and the environment. Propeller and undercarriage move — they turn in the wood, they do not control the light.

The catalogue places this fitting in a child's room. One open lamp in a wooden airplane lights the zone beneath it and a little of the wall around.
