SU-MA Retro Classic K 1018/1/D outdoor pendant light, black, E27, 24 cm

The SU-MA Retro Classic K 1018/1/D is a black outdoor pendant light with a cast-aluminium body and sandblasted glass panels. Its lantern narrows towards the bottom, with a shaped roof, decorative panel edges and a finial beneath the glass. Chain suspension distinguishes this version from the wall lights and standing fixtures in the same family.

Allow room beneath the suspension

The manufacturer specifies a height of 81 cm and a diameter of 24 cm. Compare these measurements with the available ceiling height and the route people will take through the space. The bottom of the lantern should not obstruct anyone passing below it. SU-MA identifies gardens, balconies and gazebos as intended settings; a terrace needs a suitable overhead suspension point above the area you want to illuminate.

This is a hanging fixture, not a post light to place on the ground. Its IP43 rating does not indicate suitability for immersion or cleaning with a water jet. The mounting position and electrical connection must follow the manufacturer's installation instructions.

Choose the light through an E27 bulb

A single E27 holder accepts a replaceable light source, including a compatible LED bulb. The 60 W figure is the maximum permitted bulb power, not the consumption of every bulb used in the fitting. Brightness and colour temperature depend on the selected light source. Check its lumen output and colour temperature when choosing it, rather than treating the fixture's wattage limit as a brightness rating.

Black metal and frosted glass panels

The sandblasted glazing obscures a direct view of the bulb. Black powder-coated aluminium and the historic lantern shape suit classical, retro and vintage schemes. The patinated finishes illustrated in the gallery are other family variants, not simultaneous colours of this black version. A qualified electrician should connect the fixture with the supply switched off. Allow it to cool before cleaning or changing the bulb, as required by the installation instructions.
