CTO Lighting Carapace Pendant
The CTO Lighting Carapace Pendant is a ceiling-mounted pendant from the Carapace range. This modern reinterpretation of a 1920s form pairs hand-spun metal shadework with an opal glass diffuser for considered overhead interior illumination.
The design uses nested, tiered shades to create a low-profile, symmetrical silhouette. The outer shade shows a dark, matte appearance while the inner, lower shade is finished in a warm brass tone; this layered contrast gives the fixture visual depth and a restrained, mid-century inspired character.
Construction includes a circular ceiling canopy and a rigid downrod that supports the shade assembly. A translucent frosted glass globe sits at the base to diffuse light evenly and reduce glare, while the metallic inner surface reflects and warms the downward illumination.
The tiered shade geometry directs light downwards for focused ambient or task-orientated lighting, with the opal globe providing soft, even light distribution. The fixed stem design gives a stable, non-swinging installation profile suitable for central pendant positions.
The Carapace is supplied with a 1000mm drop rod as standard, adjustable on site; additional drop rod lengths are available separately. A one-year manufacturer warranty applies to this fitting.
At Lighting Design Online we frame the Carapace as a design-led choice for projects that favour material clarity and controlled ambience. Our recommendations focus on the right outcome for the space, backed by professional assurance and project-friendly support to help specify finishes, mounting and integration with other lighting layers.
