The Patino PE30 is a 300mm glass sphere pendant inamber, smoke or green one E27 globe to 25W, notsupplied, on a 2,000mm suspension.

Size does not change the light. All three Patinos 200, 300 and 400mm takethe same single E27 globe to 25W. Stepping up a size gives youa bigger sphere and identical output. No source said so.

Choose the 300mm because it is the right proportion, and ifyou want more light, use more pendants.

The middle size and the one that works either way

300mm wide by 370mm high. This is the size that islarge enough to hang singly over a small table, a bedside or an entry, andsmall enough to run in a group of three over a bench without crowding. The200mm really wants to be in a run; the 400mm is a singlestatement.

Amber, smoke or green a choice about light

All three are tinted, not frosted, so the globe stays visible andthe glass colours the light on its way out:

• Amber adds warmth; candle-like light, and the spherelooks bright and jewel-like lit. The most flattering over a table.
• Smoke cuts and cools; dimmer and restrained, and adark object when off.
• Green unusual in this catalogue and the most decisive. Best where there istimber, brass or planting to answer it.

Mixing them in a run of three is worth considering.Amber, smoke and green together reads as collected rather than repetitive andbecause each tint transmits differently, the three give visibly different light aswell as different colour. Ask us about availability across the three.

The globe is visible choose it deliberately. Adecorative LED filament inside a tinted sphere is the whole effect; a bare whitecapsule will look unfinished. Choose warm, 2700K, and if you are hangingseveral, buy them together so the spheres match.Ask us and we will match a set.

Hang it above eye level

Because the source is visible, a Patino atseated eye height across a table is uncomfortable to look at. Over abench, in a stairwell, at a hallway end, or over atable at a proper height, it does exactly what it is for.

Dimming depends on the globe our record carriesno value at all; the datasheet says globe dependent. With avisible filament inside tinted glass, dimming isthe best thing you can do for how it looks andin a run of three, ask us for a matched set, because three different LEDs on onedimmer is where flicker starts.

No weight is recorded, and the record carriesno material at all for a fitting whose glass sphere is the entire design.Ask us, particularly for a run. It isClassI earth required andIP20 indoor and dry locations only.

Where it works

• Over small tables, bedsides and entries singly.
• In runs of three over a bench, above eye level.
• Mixed tints in one run amber, smoke and green.
• No brighter than the 200mm same globe.
• The globe is visible buy a decorative filament.

Questions

Is a bigger Patino brighter?

No all three sizes take the same single E27 globe to 25W. Stepping up gives you a bigger sphere and identical output. If you want more light, use more pendants.

Which size should I choose?

The 300mm is the one that works either way large enough to hang singly over a small table, bedside or entry, and small enough to run in a group of three over a bench without crowding. The 200mm really wants to be in a run; the 400mm is a single statement.

Amber, smoke or green?

Amber adds warmth and reads candle-like, and the sphere looks jewel-like lit the most flattering over a table. Smoke cuts and cools: dimmer, restrained, and a dark object when off. Green is unusual here and the most decisive, best where there is timber, brass or planting to answer it.

Can I mix the colours?

Yes, and in a run of three it is worth it amber, smoke and green together reads as collected rather than repetitive, and because each tint transmits differently, the three give visibly different light as well as colour. Ask us about availability across the three.

What globe should I fit?

A decorative LED filament in warm 2700K inside a tinted sphere that is the whole effect, where a bare white capsule looks unfinished. If you are hanging several, buy them together so the spheres match.

Where should I hang it?

Above eye level. The source is visible, so at seated eye height across a table it is uncomfortable to look at. Over a bench, in a stairwell, at a hallway end, or over a table at a proper height.

Can I dim it?

With a dimmable E27 and a wall dimmer. Our record carries no value; the datasheet says globe dependent. With a visible filament inside tinted glass it is the best thing you can do for how it looks and in a run of three, ask us for a matched set, because three different LEDs on one dimmer is where flicker starts.
