The Bally 8 is the smallest sphere in the Bally family 200mmof blasted opal glass, against 250mm for the Bally 10 and 300mm for theBally 12. Same design at three scales; this is the one for groups and tight spaces.

Small spheres want company

At 200mm a single Bally is a modest object. Three or five in a row over an island, or acluster at staggered heights in a stairwell, is where it comes into its own. As a lone pendant over adining table it will look undersized step up to the 10 or the 12.

Two metres of suspension

It hangs on a 2,000mm suspension, shortened at installation, from a small47mm canopy. That combination small canopy, long drop is what makes itwork in a cluster: the ceiling stays uncluttered and the spheres do the talking.

Blasted opal hides the lamp

The glass glows evenly with no visible globe and no bright spot from any angle, so it is comfortableat eye level. A plain globe is all it needs; a decorative filament is invisible inside it.

Where it works

• Kitchen islands, in rows of three or five.
• Stairwells and voids, clustered at staggered heights.
• Bedsides, hung low in place of table lamps.
• Small hallways and nooks where a larger sphere would crowd.
