The Pinta PE08 is an 820mm eight-light pendant built fromilluminated acrylic rods 3W each, 24W total,965lm at 3000K in black or gold.

Rods, not shades and that is the design

The eight sources are acrylic rods rather than globes behind shades. Each oneglows along its whole length, so the fitting reads as agroup of lit lines suspended in space instead of eight bright points. From below it isgraphic; from the side it has depth. Nothing else in this range does it.

Eight rods at 3 watts each

24W total. Our record carries the 3W per-rod figure on its own, whichreads as the whole fitting if you are not looking carefully the total is eight times that.

965 lumens across 820mm

Enough to be a genuine presence over a dining table without being a task light. Our sources disagree the record and page say 1,164lm, the datasheet says 965. Theten-rod Pinta has the same two figures the other way round, and the efficacy settles it: 965lmfrom 24W and 1,164lm from 30W are the same rods working equally hard.965lm is published.

Black or gold and the frame is what you see by day

With rods rather than shades, the metal frame is the object when the fitting is off.Black is graphic and lets the lit rods dominate at night;gold is warm and reflective, so the fitting stays present in daylight too.

Wide and shallow

820mm across, 250mm deep, on a 1,500mm suspension shorter than the 2m most of this range carries. Over a standard ceiling that is ample;tell us if you have a raked or double-height space.

The LEDs are integrated

Included, so nothing to buy and nothing to match across eight visible rods which on a fitting like this genuinely matters. Not dimmable.

There is a ten-light version

Pinta is made as an 8 and a 10-rod pendant, both in black and gold.

Where it works

Questions

What are the lights made of?

Acrylic rods rather than globes behind shades. Each glows along its whole length, so the fitting reads as a group of lit lines suspended in space instead of eight bright points.

How much power does it draw?

24W in total 3W per rod across eight. Our record carries the 3W figure on its own, which reads as the whole fitting if you are not looking carefully.

How bright is it?

965lm a genuine presence over a dining table without being a task light. Our sources disagree (the record says 1,164lm), but the ten-rod Pinta carries the same two figures reversed, and the efficacy scaling settles it in favour of 965.

Black or gold?

With rods rather than shades, the frame is the object when the fitting is off. Black lets the lit rods dominate at night; gold keeps the fitting present in daylight too.

How long is the suspension?

1,500mm shorter than the 2m most of this range carries. Ample over a standard ceiling; tell us if you have a raked or double-height space.

Do I need globes?

No. The LED rods are integrated and included, so nothing to match across eight visible elements.

Is there a bigger version?

Yes, a 10-rod Pinta, in both finishes.
