Product Information

Full details

The Foscarini Spokes 2 pendant light is designed for individuals seeking a unique, statement lighting piece that complements minimal, boho, or contemporary interior designs. Its key benefit lies in its distinctive cage shade, crafted from filigree steel tubes, which softens light and creates a textured illumination. A potential caveat is that the cage design offers limited light diffusion, focusing more on creating a visual effect than broad area lighting.

FAQs

What type of bulb does the Spokes 2 pendant light use?

The Spokes 2 pendant light is compatible with LED bulbs. It is recommended to use dimmable LED bulbs if you plan to use a dimmer switch.

Can I adjust the hanging height of the pendant?

Yes, the minimal wire flex cable allows for adjustable suspension height. You can trim the cable or adjust it at the ceiling canopy during installation.

What is the IP rating of this light?

The Spokes 2 pendant light has an IP20 rating, making it suitable for dry indoor environments like living rooms, hallways, and bedrooms.

Is this light suitable for a kitchen?

While it can be used in a kitchen, its IP20 rating means it's not protected against moisture. It's best suited for areas away from steam or water splashes, such as a dining nook within a larger kitchen.

How do I clean the steel cage?

Disconnect power before cleaning. Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to gently wipe the steel tubes. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Does it come with a dimmer switch?

No, the light fixture itself is compatible with dimmer switches, but the dimmer switch is typically sold separately and must be installed according to electrical codes.

What are the dimensions of the Spokes 2 pendant light?

Specific dimensions are not provided, but the design features a cage shade made from filigree steel tubes suspended by a minimal wire flex cable.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check that the power supply is on and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Ensure the bulb is correctly screwed in and functional. Verify wiring connections if recently installed.

Flickering light

This may indicate an issue with the bulb or dimmer compatibility. Try a different compatible LED bulb or check the dimmer switch settings. Ensure all connections are secure.

Light appears too dim or too bright

Adjust the dimmer switch to the desired level. If a dimmer is not installed, consider replacing the bulb with one of a different wattage (ensure it's LED compatible and within the fixture's limits).

  • Suitable for a variety of contemporary and themed interiors.
  • Low maintenance for easy upkeep.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Installation requires a standard ceiling electrical connection for pendant lights. Ensure the power is switched off at the mains before beginning. The minimal wire flex cable allows for adjustable suspension height, which should be determined based on room size and desired effect.

Compatibility: This fixture is compatible with LED light sources and dimmer switches. It is recommended to use energy-efficient LED bulbs. Ensure the chosen bulb fits within the cage structure.

Care: The Spokes 2 pendant light is IP20 rated, meaning it is protected against solid objects larger than 12.5mm and should be kept away from direct moisture. For cleaning, first disconnect the power supply. Use a dry or slightly damp soft cloth to gently wipe the steel tubes. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which could damage the finish. Regular dusting will help maintain its appearance.
