Silken Lotus Silk Pendant Lamp

A closer fit for your
everyday comfort.

Silken Lotus Pendant Lamp — real silk lantern, lotus form, five sizes. A lantern form constructed from fine silk panels stitched over a white iron frame — its silhouette swells like a lotus in bloom, the scalloped lower edge echoing petals opening outward. The natural weave of the silk softens and scatters the light from within, producing a warm, glowing volume rather than a directed beam — the entire surface of the shade becomes luminous. Quiet, refined, and deeply warm. Available in five sizes from ∅ 40 cm to ∅ 80 cm. Real silk — the true effect only reveals itself when lit The Silken Lotus is made from genuine silk fabric. When unlit, the shade appears as a soft ivory-cream lantern. When lit from within, the silk becomes translucent — the warm light passes through the weave structure, every thread visible as a fine warm grid — and the full depth, warmth, and luminosity of the material reveals itself. Packaging creases in the silk will relax naturally once the lamp is installed and warmed by use. Do not steam, iron, or apply heat directly to the silk shade. Features Genuine Silk Panels Natural silk weave — warm translucent glow, the light passes through the thread structure itself. Lotus Silhouette Scalloped lower edge — organic form that reads as sculpture from every angle. 5 Sizes · 1–5 Bulbs ∅ 40 to ∅ 80 cm — bulb count scales with diameter for even luminosity.

A warm-white LED at 2700–3000 K is strongly recommended — the warm amber tone passes through the natural silk weave and transforms the entire shade into a warm luminous volume. Frosted globe or standard A-shape LED bulbs at 6–8W per socket provide comfortable, even diffusion through the silk. Avoid cool white (5000K+) which reads harsh through natural fabric. The number of bulbs required scales with the shade diameter — see the size cards above for exact bulb count per size.Guide to E26 and E27 bulb selection → Warm 2700K is the natural match for silk Natural silk has a warm ivory-cream tone that is deepened and enriched by a 2700 K warm white light source. The amber tone of the light passing through the silk creates a deeply warm, lantern-like ambience that is the Silken Lotus’s defining character. This effect is most visible and most beautiful in low-ambient-light conditions — evenings, dining, and bedside use.

Dust with soft dry brush. Certification North America · EU · AU · Saudi Arabia Downloads Spec Sheet Frequently Asked Questions Will the packaging creases in the silk disappear? Yes — natural silk relaxes with gentle warmth over time. Once installed and the lamp is switched on, the heat from the bulbs will gently ease any packaging creases over the first few hours to days of use. Do not attempt to remove creases with steam, a clothes iron, or any direct heat source — silk is heat-sensitive and can be permanently damaged. If creases persist after a week of regular use, contact our support team. Which size is right for a dining table? The ∅ 50 cm version is well-proportioned for a 4-seat round or square table — wide enough to visually anchor the space without overwhelming a compact dining room. The ∅ 60 cm version suits 4–6 seat rectangular tables and is the most versatile choice for a standard dining room. The ∅ 68 and 80 cm versions are for 6–8 seat tables and large open-plan dining areas where the shade needs to read at a greater distance. The ∅ 40 cm is best as a bedroom pendant or above a small café-style table for two. How do I care for the silk shade? Dust the shade gently with a soft dry brush or use low-pressure compressed air. Do not use damp cloths, water, any cleaning solution, steam, or a clothes iron on the silk — silk is delicate and moisture or heat can permanently damage or stain the fabric. Keep the shade away from kitchen steam and cooking vapour. If the shade requires more thorough cleaning, contact us before attempting any cleaning method. Is the Silken Lotus certified for North America and Europe? Yes. It holds certifications compatible with North America, Saudi Arabia, Europe, and Australia and operates on AC 110–240V worldwide. Sizing & questions Every piece is made to order in our own atelier — here is what most clients ask before choosing theirs. What size Silken Lotus fits my dining table?+The ∅ 19.7″ (50 cm) works well above a standard table for 4–6 place settings. The ∅ 23.6″ (60 cm) suits 6–8 seats. For larger gatherings, the ∅ 26.8″ (68 cm) or ∅ 31.5″ (80 cm) illuminate open-plan living and dining areas. Custom sizing is available through our atelier. Which bulb and color temperature should I use?+A warm-white LED at 2700–3000 K is strongly recommended—the amber tone passes through the silk and transforms the entire shade into a warm luminous volume. Use frosted globe or standard A-shape bulbs at 6–8 W per socket. Avoid cool white (5000 K+), which reads harsh through natural fabric. How many bulbs does each size hold?+Bulb count scales with diameter: ∅ 15.7″ and ∅ 19.7″ hold 1 bulb each; ∅ 23.6″ holds 2; ∅ 26.8″ holds 3; ∅ 31.5″ holds 5. This ensures even luminosity across the full shade. What happens if the silk has creases after delivery?+Packaging creases in the silk will relax naturally once the lamp is installed and warmed by use. Do not steam, iron, or apply heat directly to the silk shade. The natural weave softens over time with gentle lighting. Can I adjust the cable length or customize this pendant?+The standard cable is 59″ and is adjustable. Cable extension is available on request. All Silken Lotus pendants are made to order in our atelier, so custom specifications can be discussed at purchase.
