Pablo Designs Sky Solo LED Pendant – Two-Sided Dim-to-Warm Lamp

A razor-thin aluminum disc that lights the table and the ceiling at once.

Sky Solo is the core of Pablo Pardo’s Sky collection: a minimal, CNC-machined aluminum lamp with a powerful two-sided LED. A glare-free flat panel sends 850 lumens down while an LED array sends 400 lumens up to wash the ceiling, 1,250 lumens in all, from just 18 watts.

The light dims from 2700K toward a cozy 2200K, and the braided graphite cable is 10 feet and field-cuttable. Hang one alone, run several in series, or see the Sky Solo chandeliers for ready-made groupings.
