Timber pairs a turned wooden collar with a blown glass shade, the two materials Scandinavian lighting has leaned on for a century. They are used together so often for good reason: both age well, both take light kindly, and neither argues with the rest of a room. A wooden collar softens glass in a way that a metal one never quite manages. It is a combination that has survived every change of fashion since.
There are three profiles. Style A is the rounded globe, Style B the elongated teardrop, and Style C the wide open bell, and each comes in clear, amber or smoked grey glass. Clear gives the sharpest sparkle from a filament bulb and the most output. Amber warms the whole light towards gold, which is what a dining table wants in the darker half of the year. Smoked grey softens everything into something closer to dusk, and reads well in a room with pale walls.
Mixing profiles within one finish makes a considered run over an island, and matching all three keeps things formal. A standard fitting means the bulb is yours to choose, and with clear glass that choice matters very nearly as much as the shade itself does.
