Santa & Cole Moaré XL Pendant Light

A statement pendant scaled for tall, open spaces where a small fixture would disappear.

We reach for Moaré XL in rooms with volume: hotel lobbies, restaurant dining rooms, double-height living rooms and open stairwells. Three bulbs behind a diffuser give it real output, while the layered shades keep the light soft. It suits Modern, Scandinavian and gallery-like interiors, and color pairings let it go quiet or graphic.

Where to use it

Suited in a hotel lobby, a double-height living room, an open stairwell or over a large round dining table.

Planning notes

Plan for a ceiling height of at least 3 m (10 ft); the 3 m (118.1 in) cable allows a drop of up to 300 cm (118.1 in). It mounts to a standard junction box and needs three E26 bulbs. Over a table, leave about 75 cm (30 in) between the shade bottom and the tabletop.

Who this is not for

• Anyone who needs it within days: it is made to order in Spain with a lead time of 4–6 weeks.
• Anyone expecting bulbs in the box: they are not included.

Care

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners.
