The Graphite Nine pendant light by Tala is the British lighting brand's contemporary take on eye-catching chandeliers: the luminaire consists of nine Graphite pendants and Sphere IV bulbs that hang in a cluster from a sleek, black ceiling canopy.

Although the Graphite Nine chandelier boasts a sleek, minimalist design, its generous size and round light bulbs make it positively hypnotic. The spherical, matte-finished bulbs measure a whopping 5.91 in (15 cm) in diameter, and they seem to cascade from the ceiling like an illuminated waterfall or trickling raindrops. What's more, the dimmable Sphere bulbs feature the Dim to Warm effect similar to old halogen bulbs: the more the light is dimmed, the warmer it becomes.

The grandiose pendant will light up any stairwell, living space or perhaps a round dining table in a distinctive, sophisticated style. The luminaire can even be placed over a dining or coffee table, as the cords can be cut to the desired length. Tala recommends that the installation of this lighting fixture is performed by a qualified electrician.
