Pablo Designs Bola Felt LED Pendant – Acoustic Wool Felt, 24"–52"

Bola Felt sets an undulating wool felt shade over an opal glass globe. The shade can be tilted to aim the light, and the thick felt absorbs sound, which makes it a smart choice over dining tables and in busy social spaces. Four sizes from 24" to 52" in Pablo's Pebble/Grey felt, with an integrated 95 CRI LED that warm-dims from 2700K to 1800K.

Specifications

Features

• Tilting wool felt shade to aim light
• Acoustic dampening from thick felt
• Four sizes, 24"–52"
• Warm dim 2700K–1800K, 95 CRI
• ELV dimmer recommended by Pablo

Room fit: where it works best

• 24"–32": dining tables for 4–8 and reading areas.
• 42"–52": long tables, open-plan living spaces, restaurants and lobbies where sound control matters.
• Acoustics: the felt helps soften echo in rooms with hard floors and glass.
• Hanging height: about 30–36" above the tabletop to the lowest edge of the shade.

Placement guidance is our general design rule of thumb, not a Pablo specification.

Who this is not for

• Not for kitchens directly over a range or for humid bathrooms: felt can absorb grease and moisture.
• Not for outdoor use.
• The 42" and 52" are large, heavy statement pieces; confirm ceiling support and plan for two installers.

Why we carry it

Bola is one of the collections that made us fall for Pablo. We've been curating modern lighting since 2009, and Bola earns its place because the idea is so simple: an opal glass globe paired with mirror-polished metal, so the fixture seems to float and picks up the colors of the room around it. The integrated LED is 95 CRI and warm-dims like candlelight, which is rare at this price, and the family is broad enough to carry one look from the entry to the dining table to the bedside.

Buy once: longevity and care

• Long-life LED: the integrated LED is rated for 50,000 hours and 95 CRI, with a 5-year Pablo LED warranty.
• Felt care: vacuum the shade gently with a soft brush attachment; spot-clean with a barely damp cloth.
• Care: dust the globe and metal with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Mirror-polished finishes show fingerprints, so handle them with gloves or a cloth; avoid abrasive or ammonia cleaners.
• Warranty: 1-year Pablo Designs product warranty; integrated LED covered for 5 years.

Frequently asked questions

Does the felt really help with noise?

Yes. Pablo designed the thick wool felt shade for acoustic dampening, which is why Bola Felt is often chosen for dining rooms and restaurants.

Can I angle the shade?

Yes. The shade rests on the glass globe and can be tilted to several angles to focus the light.

What does "warm dim" mean?

The light starts at 2700K warm white at full brightness and shifts toward a candle-like 1800K as you dim it, the way an incandescent bulb does.

Can I get 3000K instead of warm dim?

Yes. Pablo builds 3000K and 3500K versions on request; they may carry a longer lead time. Choose 3000K where offered, or contact our trade desk.

Can the LED be replaced?

The LED is integrated rather than a screw-in bulb. It is rated for 50,000 hours (about 17 years at 8 hours a day), and Pablo covers it with a 5-year LED warranty.
