Cloud Pendant Light in Layered Imitation Silk

Cloud Pendant Light Where the Metal Frame Pushes the Fabric Out into Soft Lobes

The shade is a metal frame with imitation silk stretched over it, and the frame is what makes the shape rather than merely holding it. The fabric is pulled tight along each rib and bulges outward in the spans between them, so the finished volume is not a smooth sphere but a sphere broken into soft lobes, with a shallow valley wherever a rib runs. Lit from inside, the fabric glows evenly across each lobe while the ribs read as faint darker lines, and the whole object reads as something soft held in shape rather than something molded. That is where the cloud comparison comes from. Unlit it keeps the same silhouette, pale and sculptural against a ceiling, because the shape is structural and does not depend on the light being on.

Questions about this product

Everything you need to know about this product.

Is the shade real silk?

It is imitation silk stretched over a metal frame. It gives the same even glow and the same matte white surface, and it holds its shape better on a frame this size than a natural silk would. We say so plainly rather than calling it silk, because the two behave differently over time and the difference is worth knowing.

What gives it the lobed shape?

The frame. The fabric is pulled tight along each rib and bulges out in the spans between them, so the volume is a sphere broken into soft lobes with a shallow valley wherever a rib runs. The shape is structural, which is why the silhouette holds whether the fixture is lit or not.

Which size should I choose?

The 50 cm version takes one bulb and covers 5 to 10 square meters, which makes it a companion light above a small table or in a bedroom. The 60 and 68 cm versions take three bulbs and cover 8 to 12. The jump in output between the 50 and the 60 is larger than the difference in diameter suggests.

How many bulbs does it take?

One E27 bulb on the 50 cm version, three on the 60 and the 68 cm versions. Three sources spread across the frame also light the lobes from more than one direction, which flattens the shadows between them and gives a more even surface than a single central bulb can on a shade that size.

Does it arrive assembled?

Assembly is required before installation. The frame and the fabric shade arrive flat, which is what keeps a 68 cm fabric volume intact in transit. Unpack on a soft surface and handle the fabric by the frame rather than by the lobes, since fingerprints show on a pale matte surface.

How do I clean it?

Dry only. Use a soft brush or a vacuum on its lowest suction with a brush head, working around each lobe rather than across the valleys so nothing catches on a rib. Keep water away from the fabric: a damp cloth leaves a mark on a pale matte surface and it does not come out. Switch the fixture off and let it cool first.

Three Sizes, and Why the Bulb Count Matters More than the Diameter Alone

The three sizes are not simply the same fixture scaled, because the wiring changes with them. The 50 cm version takes a single E27 bulb and covers 5 to 10 square meters: it is a companion light, right above a small table or in a bedroom. The 60 and 68 cm versions take three bulbs each and cover 8 to 12 square meters, which makes them brighter and also more even, since three sources spread across the frame light the lobes from more than one direction and flatten the shadows. If you are choosing between the 50 and the 60, the jump in output is larger than the jump in diameter suggests. A knob switch operates the fixture, the cord adjusts up to 120 cm and assembly is required before installation. Dust the fabric dry with a soft brush. Indoor use only.
