A Curve That Gathers The Light
A simple metal dome collects the output and drops it exactly where you need it. The curve does all the work, optically and visually.
White Disappears Into The Ceiling
Against a pale ceiling the white shade almost vanishes, which keeps a small room feeling open rather than crowded from above.
Specified Once, Then Forgotten About
Nothing is applied to the outside of the shade and nothing needs adjusting later. For a ceiling light, being quietly forgotten is high praise.
Cove is a Scandinavian pendant light with the curved, sheltering profile its name suggests: a simple metal dome that gathers light and drops it exactly where you need it. There is no diffuser, no visible fixing and nothing applied to the outside of the shade. The curve does all the work, both optically and visually. It is the sort of fitting that gets specified and then quietly forgotten about, which is high praise for a ceiling light.
White disappears into a pale ceiling and keeps a small room feeling open, which makes it the right answer in a flat where the ceilings are low and the light is scarce. Black gives a sharp graphic outline and anchors a lighter interior, holding its own against pale walls and timber. Red is the one that makes the room, a single warm accent hung above a kitchen counter or a reading chair where it becomes the thing the eye goes to first. All three are finished in plated iron, which resists chipping better than a painted shade and keeps its edge crisp.
Hang one low over a counter for working light, or run three along an island. The enclosed dome keeps the bulb hidden from across the room, so it stays comfortable at eye level.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a diffuser?
No. The curve of the metal dome shapes the light on its own, which is what keeps the fitting so simple.
Which colour suits a small room?
White, because it disappears into a pale ceiling and keeps the space feeling open.
Where does the light go?
Downward, gathered by the dome into a defined pool on the surface below rather than spilling across the ceiling.
Are the fixings visible?
No. There is nothing applied to the outside of the shade, which is why it reads as a single clean curve.
Can I hang a row of them?
Yes. The plain dome repeats well over an island or a long table without the run becoming busy.
