Type 80 Pendant - Opal Glass

Opal glass softens the Type 80's graphic cone into an all-around glow, downlight intact.

Where the painted pendant throws a focused beam with a halo ring, the glass shade diffuses light through its whole surface — ambience for dining rooms and bedrooms without losing clarity below. Designed by Sir Kenneth Grange and hung from a steel ceiling rose, it ships with a bulb. Part of our Anglepoise collection.

Common Questions

How does it differ from the standard Type 80 Pendant?
The shade is opal glass instead of painted aluminum, so light glows through the entire cone rather than escaping as a halo ring — softer ambience, same dimensions.

What comes in the box?
The pendant on 59 inches of cable, a bulb, and a US junction-box mounting kit — ready to install on a standard ceiling box.

Care Guide +

Your Anglepoise® lamp is a finely balanced product. To adjust the balance, place the lamp
on a level surface and carefully tighten the thumbwheels until the shade and arms support themselves in multiple positions. If further adjustment is required, use the hex keys to tighten the centre joint. To avoid damage caused by excessive force, we ask that you treat your lamp with due care. Prior to cleaning or maintenance, always switch off and disconnect the lamp from the electricity supply.
