01 / The feeling
Lines That Shape Light
The Riva brings an air of refined simplicity to your space, its cylindrical cage of light grey metal creating an elegant focal point above dining tables or kitchen islands. The vertical bars cast beautiful striations of light and shadow across walls and surfaces, adding depth and visual interest that shifts throughout the day. This architectural pendant works beautifully in contemporary interiors, its soft grey finish complementing both neutral schemes and bolder colour palettes with effortless sophistication.
Crafted from durable iron with a quality grey finish, this pendant is built to maintain its sleek appearance for years to come. The open cage structure makes bulb changes straightforward, accommodating E27 ES bulbs up to 12W for efficient, modern lighting. Rated IP20 and Class I, it's perfectly suited for dry indoor areas where you want to make a stylish statement without compromising on practicality.

Good to know
A few questions,
before it comes home.
Does the Riva pendant light require an electrician to install?
Yes, as a Class I hardwired pendant light, the Riva must be installed by a qualified electrician in compliance with UK Building Regulations Part P. The fitting connects directly to your mains supply via a ceiling rose or BESA box and requires proper earthing. DIY installation is not permitted for mains-voltage ceiling lights unless you are certified under the Competent Person Scheme.
What type of bulb does this pendant light take and is it included?
This fitting requires an E27 ES (Edison Screw) bulb with a maximum wattage of 12W. The bulb is not included, so you'll need to purchase one separately. We recommend an LED E27 bulb rated at 12W or lower for energy efficiency and compatibility with the fitting's specifications.
Can I use this pendant light with a dimmer switch?
Dimming capability depends entirely on the bulb you choose, as the fitting itself does not restrict dimming. If you fit a dimmable E27 LED bulb (clearly marked on packaging) and have a compatible LED dimmer switch installed, the light will dim. Standard non-dimmable bulbs will not work with dimmer switches and may flicker or fail.
Is the Riva cage pendant suitable for a bathroom?
No, this pendant light has an IP20 rating, which means it offers no protection against moisture and is only suitable for dry indoor locations. UK bathroom zones require minimum IP44 (Zone 2) or IP65 (Zones 0 and 1) ratings, so the Riva should only be used in living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, or dining areas.
What dimensions is the cylindrical cage and how low will it hang?
The exact dimensions are not listed in the specifications provided, but as a cylindrical cage pendant, the drop height will depend on the suspension length, which is often adjustable during installation. We recommend checking the product listing or contacting us for precise measurements including diameter, height, and total drop to ensure it suits your ceiling height and space.
How bright will this pendant be and what colour temperature should I choose?
Brightness depends on the E27 bulb you install—up to the 12W maximum. A 12W LED bulb typically produces around 1,000-1,200 lumens, suitable for ambient lighting in smaller rooms or as task lighting over a table. For colour temperature, choose 2700K for warm white (cosy, traditional), 3000K for soft white (neutral), or 4000K for cool white (crisp, modern) depending on your room's style and function.
