The Cusco BF40 is a 400mm batten fix wrapped innatural-toned string over a soft white diffuser, taking oneB22 bayonet globe.

The base is recorded B22 bayonet

Worth stating plainly, because three other batten fixes in this range record no base atall. The Cusco takes a B22 bayonet the push-and-twist fitting, not theE27 screw. Buy the right globe first time.

Batten fix means no new wiring

It mounts onto the existing batten holder point where a bare globe currently hangs no rewiring and no new cabling. That makes it the practical way to put adecorative fitting into a bedroom or hallway that has never had one.Installation is still by a licensed electrician, as with any fitting change inAustralia.

String over a diffuser texture and softness together

The body is wound in natural string; underneath sits awhite diffuser. Lit, the string catches light along every strand sothe fitting glows as a warm textured mass, while the diffuser keeps the globe hidden and the light belowsoft. Woven and rattan fittings usually manage one or the other.

400mm, and the large of two

400mm wide, projecting 180mm, on a120mm canopy, at 1.85kg. Substantial for a batten fix it fills a bedroom or hallway ceiling properly rather than looking like a compromise. Cusco ismade in two sizes, as batten fixes and pendants.

Coastal and contemporary, deliberately

Natural fibre in a neutral tone belongs with timber, linen and pale walls. Againstthat palette a metal or glass fitting is what stands out; this settles in.

It does not change colour

Our record carries a colour-changing flag. It takes one ordinary bayonet globe andhas no colour control. Dimming is globe dependent fit a dimmable globe and itdims; the records no is wrong.
