Tense Pendant Lamp
Tense Pendant Lamp
A long horizontal pendant in real silk, hand-stretched over a slim iron frame and held aloft by a near-invisible wire suspension. The silk diffuser carries the gentle warp of natural fiber — a soft asymmetrical fold across its length that catches light differently from each angle. Six sizes from 50 to 100 cm wide cover everything from a tea space or reading nook through to a full dining table or open-plan living room. The integrated LED softens through the silk into an even warm wash; at 15 cm tall the form reads as a quiet horizontal line on the ceiling rather than a hanging object.
Real Silk Diffuser
Hand-stretched over the frame — fiber grain shows in the surface.
Wire Suspension
Fishing-line cable from a Y-split — the shade reads as floating.
Integrated LED
Warm white, sealed inside the silk diffuser.
Iron Frame
Slim internal skeleton holds the silk in a soft drape.
6 Sizes
50 / 60 / 70 / 80 / 90 / 100 cm wide — bedside through full dining.
AC 110–240V
Hardwired, works on North America and EU mains.
Real Silk — Each Diffuser Is Hand-Stretched
The Tense uses real silk fabric over an iron frame. Silk is a natural fiber: fine grain runs through the weave, and small variations in tension across the frame produce subtle differences in fold and surface from one piece to the next. Each diffuser is stretched by hand at the factory — yours will not match the photo exactly. When the LED is on, the silk weave reads as a soft, even warm wash with faint texture; this is the fiber, not a defect.
Warm White LED · Fixed Color Temperature
The integrated LED ships at a single warm-white color temperature. The light is not dimmable as standard. If you need a dimmable build or a different color temperature for your install, contact us before ordering.

| D800 | 80 × 15 cm (31.4″ × 5.9″) | Standard dining table, kitchen island |
| D900 | 90 × 15 cm (35.4″ × 5.9″) | Full dining table, large seating area |

Reading the Sizes
The diameter listed is the width along the long horizontal axis — the most visible dimension when the pendant is hung. Height is constant at 15 cm across all sizes; the form is flat and horizontal regardless of which size you pick. As a rough rule for hanging over a dining table, the diffuser should be roughly two-thirds the table's long-axis length: D800 over a 120 cm table, D1000 over a 150 cm table.

| Environment | Indoor only — dry locations |
- Hardwired ceiling installation — a licensed electrician is recommended.
- Compatible with a standard on-off wall switch (not included). The fixture is not dimmable as standard; do not pair it with a dimmer.
- Wire suspension ships at a standard length. For higher ceilings, request a longer cable before the order ships.
- The shade is light — the iron skeleton plus silk diffuser weighs less than a stone or alabaster pendant of similar size — so a standard ceiling junction box is sufficient for all six sizes.
- Integrated LED — the light source is sealed inside the diffuser and is not user-replaceable.
- For indoor use only. Not suitable for bathrooms, showers, or damp locations — silk absorbs moisture and yellows with humidity.
- Dust the silk gently with a soft, dry brush every few months. Do not use water, cleaning sprays, or a vacuum — these will mark or pull the fiber.
