Product description

Originally found in 1920s classrooms and libraries, the Rise & Fall School Light features a unique hand-spun reflector and complementary counterweight. Its clever design allows you to easily adjust the height, making it an ideal choice for dining tables and kitchens. Simply lower the light for intimate dinners or raise for a broader pool of general light. This pendant is available in either painted aluminium or copper, with different coloured interiors.
We use centuries-old techniques to create truly authentic, unprocessed lighting designs; some of which originate from East India Docks (London) in the 1880s where Davey Lighting was established.
Each of our spun shades begin life as sheet metal disc and are formed through a process called spinning. The sheets are first clamped to a formed block (reflecting the shape we want to produce) which are rotated together at high speeds. A localized pressure is supplied by hand to this spinning workpiece, causing the disc to adopt the shape of the block. The formed shade is then finished by polishing, weathering or powder coating.
