The Obris PE1 is a 130mm single pendant in polished chrome withclear glass integrated 3W LED giving 280lm at3000K, on a 2,000mm suspension.

Clear glass over an integrated LED know what that means

The light source is visible. Clear glass does not diffuse: itrefracts and reveals, so what you see through the shade is the LED itself and thechrome around it, sharpened by the glass. That is deliberate the Obris is meant to sparkle, and clear glass with a bright point behind it is howyou get sparkle.

The practical consequence: hang it above eye level. A visible280-lumen source at seated eye height across a table will beuncomfortable to look at. Over a bench, at the end of a hallway, in a stairwell, orin a run high above an island, it does exactly what it is for. Unlike a globe-fed fitting youcannot swap in a frosted lamp to soften it the LED is integrated.

280 lumens an accent, and a good one

3W for 280lm is 93 lumens per watt, which is high, and clear glass iswhy: there is no diffuser absorbing light. It isnot a room light it is a point of interest, and it works bestin a run of three or five, where the individual sparkle repeats and the combinedoutput starts to matter.

130mm wide, 330mm tall

Two and a half times taller than it is wide, on a 120mmcanopy and 2,000mm of adjustable suspension. That vertical proportionis what lets several hang close together without crowding the eye reads them as a line ofverticals rather than a row of blobs.

One light, or fifteen

The Obris range runs from this single pendant to afifteen-light statement fitting, in the same chrome and clear glass. So the samelanguage covers a hallway run and a stairwell centrepiece, which is a genuinelyuseful pairing.

It is not dimmable and fixed at 3000K on a 280lm accent that is reasonable, but in a run of five it meanson or off, so plan the switching. It isClassI earth required and hard-wired.No weight is recorded, though at this size it will not be significant.

Where it works

• In runs of three or five over a bench or island well above eye level.
• Stairwells and hallways, as points of light.
• Alongside the fifteen-light Obris in a connected space.
• The source is visible do not hang it at seated eye height.
• Integrated LED you cannot swap in a frosted globe.

Questions

Will I see the light source?

Yes. Clear glass refracts and reveals rather than diffusing, so you see the LED itself and the chrome around it, sharpened by the glass. That is deliberate the Obris is meant to sparkle.

Where should I hang it?

Above eye level. A visible 280-lumen source at seated eye height across a table will be uncomfortable to look at. Over a bench, at the end of a hallway, in a stairwell or high above an island, it does exactly what it is for.

Can I fit a frosted globe to soften it?

No the LED is integrated, so there is nothing to swap. That is the trade for the sparkle.

Is it bright enough on its own?

No 280lm is an accent, not a room light. It works best in a run of three or five, where the sparkle repeats and the combined output starts to matter.

Why is 3W enough for 280 lumens?

93 lumens per watt, which is high, and clear glass is the reason: there is no diffuser absorbing light on the way out.

Can I dim it?

No, and it is fixed at 3000K. On a 280lm accent that is reasonable, but in a run of five it means on or off plan the switching.

Does it match anything else?

Yes the Obris runs from this single pendant to a fifteen-light statement fitting in the same chrome and clear glass, which covers a hallway run and a stairwell centrepiece in one language.
