Penta LED Pentagon Sphere Pendant, 22 in, Black Steel with Acrylic, by ET2

The ET2 Penta is a 22 in sphere built from black pentagons and lit from the inside, giving a dining room, stair hall or restaurant a bold geometric light that weighs only 2.75 lb. It produces 3720 lumens of 3000K, 90+ CRI LED and hangs 25 to 145 in overall.

The pentagon panels form a faceted ball, and the steel and acrylic construction keeps the weight low enough for a standard ceiling box. Light comes from inside the shell, so you see a glowing form and shadow detail more than a bare source. The 120 in cord and 9 in canopy are set on site, and the fixture mounts on ceilings with up to a 70 degree slope. Black reads as graphic in Modern, Industrial and Scandinavian rooms and as a quiet accent over wood or stone.

Where it works best

Hang it over a round dining table, at the turn of a staircase or in a double-height entry where its 22 in diameter is seen from several sides. In a restaurant, several at staggered heights make a quick feature over booths. Pair it with plain surfaces so the geometry stands out.

Who this is not for

It is rated for dry locations only, so it should not go in bathrooms or covered outdoor spaces. Dimming is ELV only at 120V, so check that your dimmer is a compatible ELV type. The LED is a sealed part of the fixture.

Why we carry ET2

Penta is a rare large pendant that weighs under 3 lb, which makes it easy to place in a rental, a loft or an older ceiling. Its look comes from the form, not from heavy glass.

Care and installation

Wipe the surface with a dry or barely damp microfiber cloth and avoid solvents on the acrylic. Wiring and hanging are a job for a qualified electrician, according to ET2. Assembly sheet: E25104 (PDF).

Frequently asked questions

How high should the Penta hang above a table?

Plan on about 30 to 36 in from the tabletop to the bottom of the sphere. The fixture is 22 in tall and overall height can be set between 25 and 145 in.

How wide a table suits a 22 in sphere?

It fits a round or square table about 36 to 48 in across. Keep the sphere at least 12 in narrower than the table so guests do not bump it.

Can it hang from a sloped ceiling?

Yes. The listing shows a 70 degree slope allowance, and the 9 in canopy lets it sit on an angled ceiling. Have the electrician check the mounting method on the assembly sheet.

Which dimmer should I use?

Penta is rated for ELV dimming at 120V only. Use a compatible ELV dimmer, not a basic incandescent one, and test it with the fixture before the final trim goes on.

How bright is it?

It gives 3720 lumens from 62 W at 3000K and 90+ CRI. That is enough to light a dining table or a small room by itself, and ELV dimming lets you bring it down for evening meals.

Does it need a heavy ceiling box?

No. It weighs 2.75 lb net, so a standard fixture-rated box is usually enough for the fixture itself. Confirm the box rating with your electrician.
