The Frya 30 is a single-light rattan pendant, 300mm across, on an ironframe. The number in the name is its diameter in centimetres not a light count and thewoven shade is what it is for.

Woven rattan throws patterned light

Rattan is not a diffuser. Light escapes between the weave, so the fitting casts a pattern on theceiling and surrounding walls as well as lighting the surface below. That is the effect people buy itfor, and it is more pronounced with a clear globe than a frosted one. If you want a clean pool of lightwith no pattern, this is the wrong shade.

Three finishes on the same weave

Natural is the pale, unstained rattan and the warmest. Brown is a mid tone that sits against timberjoinery. Black is the most graphic and shows the weave as silhouette rather than texture.

Light enough to hang anywhere

It weighs 0.9kg and hangs on a 1,500mm suspension,shortened at installation. At that weight the ceiling fixing needs no special provision, which makes itone of the easier pendants to hang in a group.

Where it works

• Kitchen islands and breakfast bars, in rows of two or three.
• Dining tables, singly over a small table.
• Bedrooms and bedsides, hung low, where the ceiling pattern is part of the appeal.
• Coastal, Hamptons and natural-material interiors.

Questions

Is this a 30-light pendant?

No it is a ONE-light fitting. The 30 refers to its 300mm diameter. Earlier copy on this page was wrong about that.

Is a globe included?

No. One E27 globe of up to 25W, supplied separately. There is no LED supplied with this fitting.

Does the head adjust?

No. Earlier copy described an adjustable head; this fitting does not have one.

What kind of light does it give?

Light escapes through the woven rattan, so it casts a pattern on the ceiling and walls as well as lighting the surface below. A clear globe makes the pattern stronger.

What finishes are there?

Natural, brown and black, all on the same rattan weave.

How heavy is it?

0.9kg, on a 1,500mm suspension shortened at installation.

What is the warranty?

Three years.
