Know before you buy
Yes, the Rio Pendant is fully compatible with sloped ceilings, making it a versatile choice for rooms with vaulted or angled rooflines.
The fixture requires one E26 bulb, which is not included. We recommend using an Edison-style LED filament bulb to maintain the intended industrial aesthetic while ensuring energy efficiency.
Because each piece is hand-finished, you may notice subtle variations in the vintage brass. These slight differences are intentional and contribute to the unique, artisanal character of your specific fixture.
No, the Rio Pendant has an IP20 dry rating, meaning it is not suitable for bathrooms or areas prone to moisture. It is best suited for dry indoor spaces like kitchens, dining areas, or living rooms.
The flex length should be determined by your ceiling height and the desired hanging position. Consider how far you want the shade to drop from the ceiling to ensure it clears walkways or sits at the appropriate height above a table or island.
The fixture itself is not dimmable. Please ensure your wall switch and bulb choice are compatible if you intend to control the light intensity.
