Blackjack Lighting Iridium 27-Inch LED Ring Pendant Chandelier, 2,031 Lumens

Iridium is the statement fixture for a round or square dining table, a two-story foyer or the center of a great room. Eight long acrylic loops cross over a slim hub to form a 26.5-inch orbit that looks substantial from the doorway yet keeps sight lines open, because there is no solid shade or drum to block the view. It sits comfortably in Modern and Transitional homes, and it is just as at home over a boardroom table, in a boutique hotel lobby or above a restaurant's feature booth.

It also gives real, usable light. The loops are edge-lit by LEDs, so each one glows evenly from end to end: 2,031 lumens of warm 3000K light at 90 CRI from 42 W, enough to light a table for dinner while washing the room with a soft glow. The driver in the canopy dims on TRIAC, ELV or 0-10V controls across 120-277V, and a 42-inch stem kit with a hang-straight swivel keeps the rings level. Choose Etched Gold for a warm, softly textured look, or Polished Chrome for a crisp, reflective one.

Why it works over a table or in a foyer

• Big presence, little bulk: 26.5 in (67 cm) across but only 6.5 in (16.5 cm) deep, with nothing solid to block the view.
• Glare-free from every angle: light travels inside the acrylic loops, so you never look into a bare LED.
• Enough light to dine by: 2,031 lumens at 90 CRI keeps food, faces and finishes looking natural.
• Flexible dimming: works with TRIAC, ELV or 0-10V dimmers on 120-277V, for homes and commercial projects.
• Height you can set: a 42 in stem kit sets the overall height from 18.5 to 48.5 in; extra stems and a sloped ceiling swivel are available.
• Award-winning design: 2017 Lighting for Tomorrow Award, Decorative Lighting, and one of the "30 Most Innovative Products" for 2018 (Beautiful Kitchens & Baths).

Where to use it

• Dining room: center it over a round or square table 48 to 60 in across, with the bottom about 30 to 36 in above the tabletop.
• Entry and stair hall: use the extra stem sections to drop it into a two-story foyer so it reads at eye level from the landing.
• Great room or living room: hang it over a seating group or coffee table, high enough for clear walk-through headroom (about 7 ft to the bottom).
• Hospitality and offices: a memorable centerpiece for a hotel lobby, restaurant, reception area or conference table.

About Blackjack Lighting and Stephen Blackman

Blackjack Lighting is a design- and technology-driven lighting maker based in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, outside Chicago. It is led by industrial designer Stephen Blackman, its President and Chief Design Officer. A Syracuse University industrial design graduate, he entered the lighting industry in 1984 at Sonneman Design Group and founded his own studio, Blackman Design Associates, in 1988, designing for manufacturers such as Kichler Lighting before launching Blackjack in 2013. His focus has always been practical: fixtures built around LED light from the start, with even, glare-free light for real work, which Iridium turns into a centerpiece by making the light guides themselves the shape of the fixture.

FAQ

What size table or room suits Iridium?

At 26.5 in across it suits round or square tables about 48 to 60 in wide, and foyers or living rooms roughly 12 x 12 ft and up. Hang the bottom about 30 to 36 in above a table.

How is it mounted, and can it go on a sloped ceiling?

It hangs on a stem from a 2.75 in canopy over a standard ceiling junction box. The included 42 in stem kit sets the overall height from 18.5 to 48.5 in; add up to four 24 in stem sections for tall ceilings, or the sloped ceiling swivel for angled ceilings. Have a qualified electrician install it.

Which dimmer do I need?

The driver in the canopy works with TRIAC, ELV or 0-10V dimmers on 120-277V, so most residential and commercial controls will work.

Etched Gold or Polished Chrome?

Etched Gold warms up wood, brass and cream rooms; Polished Chrome suits glass, marble and black-and-white schemes.

Can I use it in a bathroom or covered porch?

It is damp-location rated, so a large bathroom or covered porch is fine, but not where it can be hit by direct rain or spray. The LED is built in and covered for three years.
