The Hooked 1.0 pendant light by Buster + Punch is a solid metal light fixture topped with a conical powder-coated metal shade, which hangs from a hook fixed to the ceiling. It measures 14 cm in diameter and 20.5 cm in height as a small model, 21 cm in diameter and 33.5 cm in height as a large model, takes 1 E27 bulb and comes with a graphite or stone shade, in 3 metal finishes: brass, smoked bronze and steel.
A pendant light with a metal shade, in 2 sizes
The shade of this pendant light with a metal shade is a sheet of metal 1 mm thick, covered with a powder paint. It is rolled into a truncated cone, then closed with wide-slot screws, which remain visible. At the top, the lamp holder protrudes slightly from the shade.
Two sizes are available. The shade of the small model measures 14 cm in diameter and 13 cm in height, for a total height of 20.5 cm, and it is closed with 3 screws. That of the large model measures 21 cm in diameter and 26 cm in height, for a total height of 33.5 cm, and it is closed with 4 screws.
The small model takes up little space and slips in where a large shade would block the view. The large model has more presence above a table. On this page, you choose the size, then the color of the shade.
Graphite or stone shade: 2 powder-coated colors
The color of the shade comes from powder coating, a powder paint applied to the metal. Two tones exist. Graphite is the darker, and the stone color, which Buster + Punch calls Stone, is a light gray.
The pendant light is therefore not made of stone: it is indeed painted metal. Graphite and stone refer to the color of the shade, not the finish of the solid metal parts. For the same size, the 2 colors have the same shape and the same measurements.
Brass, smoked bronze or steel: an industrial pendant light in solid metal
This industrial pendant light is made of solid metal. Its lamp holder bears the cross knurling, called Cross, a crisscross relief that gives the metal texture. Matte rubber details complete the whole, and the ceiling rose is also made of solid metal.
Three finishes are offered for the lamp holder, the hook and the screws of the shade: brass, smoked bronze and steel. Brass leans toward gold, smoked bronze toward brown and steel toward silver. The brand states that these finishes develop a patina over time.
Hook pendant light: placing the light in the right spot
This is a hook pendant light: the cable passes through a solid metal hook, supplied with the light fixture. This hook attaches to the ceiling rose or screws into the ceiling a little further away. The light thus falls in the right spot, even if the electrical outlet is offset from the table.
Placed above a dining room table, the pendant light is installed alone or in a group, in a line. It also suits a kitchen, above an island or a counter, a living room, a bedroom or an office.
If you line up several pendant lights, keep the same bulb and the same finish throughout. The range also includes a Hooked 1.0 Nude pendant light, without a shade.
200 cm cable: a height-adjustable pendant light
This height-adjustable pendant light is delivered with a 200 cm cable, that is 2 m. In the brass finish, it also exists with a 260 cm cable, on another page of the range.
The height is set during installation: the excess cable is stored in the cavity provided for it, or the cable is shortened. If it has to be cut, the job is one for an electrician.
Which E27 bulb for the Hooked 1.0 pendant light?
The pendant light takes 1 E27 bulb of 40 W maximum, which is not included. Buster + Punch specifies an LED source and offers its own bulbs, sold separately. A single bulb is enough: the light fixture has only one lamp holder.
The pendant light works with a dimmer, provided you choose a dimmable bulb. The dimmer is not included. Without it, the light is turned on from a standard switch.
The light fixture is rated IP20, so it is reserved for dry rooms. The electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified electrician. The ceiling fasteners are not included: they are chosen according to the type of ceiling. For maintenance, switch off the power, then wipe it with a dry, lint-free cloth, without any chemical product.
