This linear decorative-style pendant features an oiled- or dark-stained walnut frame, which morphs from solid to open cage, depending on one’s sight lines. The housing measures 49 inches long by 24 inches wide by 17 inches tall and surrounds a black-anodized- or brushed-aluminium LED light bar with a polymer enclosure. The light bar contains five 2700K, 16W LEDs, and achieves a CRI of 85-plus. For ceiling-mounted installations, a canopy is also included with the fixture. cernogroup.com
