SKAPA PENDANT BD

The Skapa BD is a customisable opal-glass pendant throwing light up and down — two shades — shape B (90 mm) with shape D (310 mm).

The greatest contrast in the range

B at 90 mm with D at 310 mm is the most extreme pairing the Skapa system allows — the smallest shape against the tallest, a difference of nearly three and a half to one. Hung together they read as two entirely separate objects rather than a graded pair, which is either exactly what you want or too much. It needs real height and space: a stairwell, a double-height void, or a wide table seen from across a room.

How the Skapa system works

Four glass shapes, and the letters in the order code are the shades you get:

• A — 110 mm
• B — 90 mm (the smallest)
• C — 250 mm
• D — 310 mm (the tallest)

One letter is a single-shade pendant; two letters is a pair. This one is BD. Tell us the combination you want and we will build it — other pairings exist beyond those listed.

Up and down from one fitting

Most pendants light downward and leave the ceiling dark. The Skapa does both — a pool below and a wash above — which lifts the whole room, and is why a single one can carry a space that would otherwise need a pendant plus something else.

1,960 lumens from 20 watts

98 lumens per watt — genuinely efficient, and a real working output rather than a decorative glow. CRI >80 at 3000 K. ⚠ Our sources record the same 20 W and 1,960 lm across the whole range, single-shade and paired alike — the light engine appears not to change with the shade count. If output is critical to your calculation, ask us to confirm.

It dims — TRIAC

Leading-edge, the common Australian type. Check compatibility with us if yours is trailing-edge or smart.

The weight varies with your choice

A finished Skapa runs from 1.22 kg to 5.93 kg depending on the shades — nearly a fivefold range. A paired fitting sits toward the heavier end. Mention the weight to your electrician if you are specifying a large combination.

Where it works

• Dining tables and kitchen islands.
• Entry halls — the upward light lifts the ceiling.
• Rooms specified as a set, where shade shape carries through.
• Anywhere a single fitting has to do two jobs.
