The Brine PE28 is a 288mm opal glass pendant oneE27 globe to 25W, not supplied inpolished nickel, matt black or satin antique gold, on a2,600mm suspension.

It takes an E27, and our record did not say so. The globetype was missing from the record entirely, so a customer could not tell what fits.It is E27 the standard large screw base to 25W, notsupplied.

Opal glass, which is the most forgiving shade there is

Opal hides the globe completely. No bright point, no visible filament, no glarefrom any angle the whole surface lights evenly and the pendant reads asa glowing form rather than a lamp in a shade. Two practical consequences:you can hang it at eye level over a table without anyone looking into a bright spot,and the globe you fit does not matter to the look only to the brightness andthe warmth. That is the opposite of the clear and ribbed shades elsewhere in this range.

A 2,600mm drop longer than almost anything else here

2.6 metres of suspension, where most pendants in this catalogue give2,000mm and some only 1,200. That extra 600mm makes the Brineusable in a stairwell or a void as well as over an ordinary table and itshortens at install, so the length costs nothing if you do not need it. On a120mm canopy.

Three finishes, and they are genuinely different

• Polished nickel bright and reflective. Itmirrors the room and catches other light sources.
• Matt black a solid dark form against the opal glass. Thegraphic choice, and the highest contrast.
• Satin antique gold warm and aged rather than bright. Thesoftest of the three against a white shade.

The old specification table listed the finish asAntique for this size and Satin for the larger one, whichcannot be right when both come in all three.

288 by 481mm the smaller of two

A 288mm shade on a 481mm overall height. At this size it is arun fitting: two or three over a bench or an island. Alone over a dining table itwill look undersized the 400mm Brine is the single-pendant size.

It is ClassI earth required and hard-wired. Alicensed electrician installs it. Dimming is globe dependent: a dimmable E27 with awall dimmer will dim it; a plain globe will not. Our record says No, which ismisleading.

Where it works

• Over benches and islands, in runs of two or three.
• Stairwells and voids the 2,600mm drop reaches.
• Anywhere the fitting sits near eye level opal never glares.
• Alone over a dining table it will look undersized use the 400mm.
• Indoor and dry locations only IP20.

Questions

What globe does it take?

An E27 the standard large screw base to 25W, not supplied. Worth stating because the globe type was missing from our record entirely, so a customer could not tell what fits.

Will I see the globe?

No. Opal glass hides it completely no bright point, no visible filament, no glare from any angle. That means you can hang it near eye level over a table, and the globe you fit affects only the brightness and warmth, not the look.

How far does it hang?

2,600mm longer than almost anything else here, where most pendants give 2,000mm and some only 1,200. It makes the Brine usable in a stairwell or a void, and it shortens at install, so the length costs nothing if you do not need it.

Which finish should I choose?

Polished nickel is bright and mirrors the room; matt black is the graphic, highest-contrast choice against the opal glass; satin antique gold is warm and aged rather than bright. All three come in both sizes, despite what the old table said.

Should I hang one or several?

Several. At 288mm this is a run fitting two or three over a bench or an island. Alone over a dining table it will look undersized; the 400mm Brine is the single-pendant size.

Can I dim it?

It depends on the globe. A dimmable E27 with a wall dimmer will dim; a plain globe will not. Our record says No, which is misleading.

Do I need an electrician?

Yes Class I, earth required, hard-wired.
