Plant fibre shade
Our Pium series has an abaca fibre outer and a linen lining. As a natural material, each length of plant fibre is unique and as such variations in colour will occur. The metalwork is dark bronze finished.
Solid oak base
The base of our Pium table light is made from European oak, a slow growing hardwood native tree to Europe. It has a golden to light brown colouring with a variety of grain patterns. Oak is very hard, durable wood and gets darker and richer with age. We use a protective white oil finish to allow the timber to age gracefully without heavy discolouration and withstand daily spillage.
European oak can display a variety of characteristics from straight grain to large swirling crown cut grain Medullary rays and small 'Cats paw' knots, all of which are an intrinsic and natural part of the grain pattern.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Does the light come with a bulb?
We do not not supply light bulbs with our lighting collection so they can be tailored to your individual requirements. The recommended bulb for your new light piece can be found in the "Lighting specification" section of each product page.
What bulbs work with this light?
Bulb recommendations can be found in the "Lighting specification" section of the product page.
Is the light compatible with LED bulbs?
This piece is compatible with LED bulbs. We recommend using LED bulbs only.
Are the light switches dimmable?
All of our table lights are supplied with a dimmer switch as standard.
What do UL and CE mean?
Different countries have different safety certification for lighting. UL is the USA certification and CE is the EU standard. Please check which option is acceptable for the country you are using the light in, for example Canada uses UL and Australia uses CE.
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) is a global safety certification for lighting supplied to the United States. Any light fixtures sold into the United States or Canada must use components or have the whole fixture tested by Underwriters Laboratories to ensure the highest safety standards.
Our UL lighting uses UL listed components.
The CE marking is required for goods sold in the European Economic Area. "CE" is the abbreviation of "conformité européenne" (French for "European conformity"). Any light fixtures sold into the EU must be assessed and deemed to meet EU safety, health and environmental protection requirements.
Our CE lighting uses CE listed components including CE wall plugs.
Can I customise this piece?
We do not offer customisation options as standard on our lighting collection as the pieces are made in small batches. However if you have a project that requires customisation on multiple pieces please contact our sales team to see how we can accommodate your request.
Can the cord that comes with this piece be changed?
Our lighting is supplied with a natural coloured weave flex as standard. This cord has been designed as part of the piece and thus we do not offer custom cord colours.
What is the weight of the product?
Approximate product weights can be found on the spec sheet downloaded from the product page. The weight excludes any packaging.
How do I clean the light?
It is best to avoid liquid cleaners. Any settled dust may be removed using a vacuum on the low setting.
Where is the plant fibre grown?
The plant fibre is grown in the Philippines. It is made from the leaves of an Abaca plant and is inherently sustainable.
Can I order samples of this material?
Unfortunately we do not provide samples of this material. Our website has been designed to illustrate the detail of our pieces and the finishes and material they are made from. If you require any additional imagery our sales team will be more than happy to send you photos from our shop floor.

Celebrating nature
Patterns and forms found in nature often influence our lighting designs. The shade of the Pium table light is inspired by the rigid repetition of the inner cavities of a seed pod.
This organic influence is carried through from the design phase to material selection. The Pium table light is a celebration of natural materials, this selection pays homage to its inception but also felt like an instinctive reaction to the light’s form. Our aim is to always respond to a product's individual wants, to satisfy its demands: to make it sing.
Beautiful materiality
The shade is made from abaca fibre, a traditional millinery material, originally used in the making of our Anders lighting range. Abaca fibre is derived from the abaca plant, a close relation of the banana. It is one of the world’s strongest natural fibres and is inherently sustainable.
Make it sing
The base of our Pium table light is made from FSC certified European (usually French) oak. This oak has a slight twiginess, which presents as a light scattering of small knots and knot clusters throughout each piece of wood. We carefully select pieces that are "lightly pippied" which add an element of character to each base but are not so abundant that it distracts from the grain of the oak. We feel these markings add interest but equally the timber artfully references the tree’s journey, conveys its maturity and celebrates its wonder.
