Mantra Calice 32cm Rise And Fall Pendant 9W LED - Black & White

A Sharp Line Above the Table

The Calice pendant meets its room at an angle, a slim black rod dropping into a wide white lined cone that throws light outward and down in equal measure. It reads as considered rather than fussy, the sort of fitting that quietly organises a dining table or kitchen counter without asking for attention.

Choosing Black and White From the Calice Range

This version pairs a matte black shade with a crisp white interior, giving a strong outline by day and a soft glow once switched on. Mantra offers the same silhouette in coffee brown, warm grey and sage green, so if black feels too graphic for your room, the same shape is available in gentler tones elsewhere in the range. Picking between them comes down to how much contrast you want against your ceiling and walls, since black works hardest in pale, neutral rooms where it can act as a punctuation mark.

How It Works

A single 9W integrated LED sits inside the angled shade, producing a warm 3000K light output of around 800lm across a 120 degree beam, with a CRI of 80 for reasonably accurate colour rendering. The head is fixed rather than dimmable, but the whole fitting rises and falls on its cable between 40cm and 200cm, so the drop can be set to sit low over a table or higher for general room lighting. It is wired to Class I electrical standards throughout.

Where It Works Best

At 32cm across, this is the smaller of the two Calice sizes Mantra makes, and its scale suits a single drop over a small dining table, a kitchen breakfast bar or a run of two or three spaced along a longer table. The black finish leans toward kitchens, hallways and dining rooms with a contemporary or industrial edge, while still working happily as a pair of bedside pendants in a bedroom with darker tones.

Made By Mantra

Mantra has been designing lighting in Valencia since 2000, built from the start around the idea that a genuinely designer looking fitting should not need a designer budget. The company grew from a Spanish base into wider European, American, Middle Eastern and Southeast Asian markets, and now works with both an internal design team and named outside designers, including Jose Ignacio Ballester, who joined in 2007. That mix of structure and outside creative input is part of why Mantra's collections read as coordinated families rather than one off shapes, and why the brand has kept trading for well over two decades rather than appearing and disappearing as a trend label.

Questions People Ask

Can the Calice pendant be dimmed?
No, this version has a fixed output rather than a dimmable driver, so brightness stays constant once switched on.

How far can I adjust the drop?
The cable allows the shade to sit anywhere between 40cm and 200cm below the ceiling point, so it can be set low over a table or raised for a more general spread of light.

Is this pendant easy to install?
It arrives ready to wire in, with a rise and fall cable that adjusts after installation, though as with any hardwired ceiling fitting we would always recommend using a qualified electrician.
