The Skapa AA is a customisable opal-glass pendant throwing lightup and down two shades, both shape A 110mm each, a matched pair.

Two identical shades symmetry rather than contrast

Both shades are shape A at 110mm, so this is thesymmetrical configuration: two matching forms rather than a stepped composition. Thatis deliberately calmer than the mixed pairs it reads asa considered fitting rather than an arrangement, and it suits a room where the lightingshould not draw attention to its own cleverness.

Two people are required to install this fitting. That isTelbixs own instruction for the Skapa range and it has never appeared on a product page.Tell your electrician before the day one person working alone will not be ableto finish it.

How the Skapa system works

Four glass shapes, and the letters in the order code are the shades you get:

• A 110mm
• B 90mm (the smallest)
• C 250mm
• D 310mm (the tallest)

One letter is a single-shade pendant; two letters is a pair. Thisone is AA. Tell us the combination you want and we will build it other pairings exist beyond those listed.

Up and down from one fitting

Most pendants light downward and leave the ceiling dark. The Skapa doesboth a pool below and a wash above which lifts the whole room, and iswhy a single one can carry a space that would otherwise need a pendant plus something else.

1,960 lumens from 20 watts

98 lumens per watt genuinely efficient, and a real working output ratherthan a decorative glow. CRI>80 at 3000K. Our sources record the same 20W and 1,960lm across the whole range,single-shade and paired alike the light engine appears not to change with the shade count. Ifoutput is critical to your calculation, ask us to confirm.

Leading-edge, the common Australian type.Check compatibility with us if yours is trailing-edge or smart.

The weight varies with your choice

A finished Skapa runs from 1.22kg to 5.93kg depending on the shades nearly a fivefold range. A paired fitting sits toward the heavier end.Mention the weight to your electrician if you are specifying a large combination.

Where it works

• Dining tables and kitchen islands.
• Entry halls the upward light lifts the ceiling.
• Rooms specified as a set, where shade shape carries through.
• Anywhere a single fitting has to do two jobs.

Questions

What do the letters in the code mean?

The shade shapes you get. The range uses four A (110mm), B (90mm), C (250mm) and D (310mm). One letter is a single shade, two letters a pair. This one is AA.

Can I choose a different combination?

Yes that is what the range is for, and other pairings exist beyond those listed. Tell us the shapes you want and we will build it.

Is there anything unusual about installing it?

Yes Telbix specifies that two people are required. That instruction has never appeared on a product page. Tell your electrician before the day.

How heavy is it?

A finished Skapa runs from 1.22kg to 5.93kg depending on the shades nearly a fivefold range. A paired fitting sits toward the heavier end. Mention it to your electrician for a large combination.

How bright is it?

1,960lm from 20W 98 lumens per watt, a real working output. Our sources record the same figures across the whole range regardless of shade count, so ask us if output is critical to your calculation.

What does up-and-down lighting give me?

A pool of light below and a wash above. It lifts the whole room, which is why a single Skapa can carry a space that would otherwise need a pendant plus something else.

Can I dim it?

Yes, on a TRIAC (leading-edge) dimmer. Check with us if yours is trailing-edge or smart.
