Know before you buy
The fixture uses an integrated LED with a high CRI of over 90, which ensures colors in your room appear natural and accurate. It is designed to cast a soft, ambient glow that creates subtle, playful shadows through its unique fabric structure.
The Nuee is compatible with 1-10V dimming systems, which offer a full range of brightness control. We recommend consulting with a professional electrician to ensure your wall controls are compatible with this specific dimming protocol.
The diffuser is made from a specialized technical fabric. To maintain its appearance, we recommend gently dusting it with a soft, dry cloth or using a low-suction vacuum attachment to remove any surface debris.
The standard fixture comes with a generous cable length, but if you have exceptionally high ceilings, a 400-inch cable option is available via special order. Please verify your ceiling height requirements before placing your order to ensure the drop is appropriate for your space.
No, the integrated LED is designed for long-term use and energy efficiency, meaning you do not need to replace bulbs. The light source is built directly into the fixture to maintain its sleek, modern aesthetic.
