Pablo Circa Tilting Disc LED Pendant, 12 in or 16 in, Glare-Free, Full-Range Dimming

A disc pendant that you can aim: tilt it toward a table, a desk or a wall after it is hung, with no glare from the source.

We specify the Circa Pendant over islands, desks and reception counters where a fixed pendant never quite points the right way. The flat-panel LED disc is 12 in (30 cm) or 16 in (40.5 cm), tilts 45 degrees in two directions, rotates 360 degrees and dims over its full range. It hangs on a 10 ft (305 cm) cord you can shorten on site.

• Dining tables: one 16 in disc over a round table.
• Home offices: over a desk as a task and ambient light.
• Reception and retail counters: aimed at the work surface.
• Hotel bars: repeated over a bar top in matching finish.

Installation & planning

• Hardwired to a ceiling junction box; plan for an electrician.
• Shorten the 10 ft (305 cm) cord on site to set the hanging height.
• Tilt the disc after installation to aim the light, then dim to your preferred level.
• Canopy is 5.5 in (14 cm) across, so allow for it in cluster layouts.
• Specify TRIAC/ELV, or ask us for 0-10V or DALI.

Who this is not for

• Plug-in installs.
• Damp or wet locations.
• Anyone who wants light that warms as it dims.

Why we carry it / Trade & project orders

Modern Design Center has curated lighting since 2009 and is an authorized Pablo Designs retailer. The Circa family earned a 2013 NY NOW Excellence in Product Design award, and we carry its pendant, flush, floor and table lamps so that one disc shape can run through a project. Trade members can request multi-unit quotes.

Frequently asked questions

Which size is right for a desk?

The 12 in (30 cm) disc suits a desk or a narrow counter. The 16 in (40.5 cm) is brighter at 740 lm and suits a dining table.

How far can I aim it?

The disc tilts 45 degrees in two directions and rotates 360 degrees.

Is there glare?

The LED panel spreads light across the whole disc, so there is no bare source to see.

Can I shorten the cord?

Yes. The 10 ft (305 cm) cord is field-cuttable.

Does it work with a smart or low-voltage dimmer?

It works with TRIAC and ELV. Pablo offers 0-10V and DALI on request.

How many discs fit over an island?

Two or three 12 in discs suit most islands. Mark positions on the ceiling before the electrician starts.
