Mantra Kriss 1 Light Squircle Pendant - Black

A Statement In Smoke And Gold

Kriss makes no attempt to blend in. A rounded smoke toned glass shade encloses a fluted, gold toned liner that catches the light from a single lamp, turning what could be a plain glass globe into a genuine centrepiece.

Smoked Glass, Gold Interior

This Kriss pendant is finished in smoke tinted glass with a contrasting fluted liner in a warm gold tone, and a black ceiling cup and cable that keep the fixing itself understated. Mantra also produces Kriss in a bronze glass tone and in an alternative cylinder shaped shade for a more elongated silhouette, so this rounded, smoke and gold version is the boldest and most sculptural option in the family.

How It Works

Kriss runs on a single GU10 lampholder, taking an LED reflector bulb of up to 12W, with no bulb supplied so you can fit whichever colour temperature suits the room. The fluted liner sits between the lamp and the outer glass, breaking up the light so it reads as a warm, textured glow rather than a single bright point. The cable allows a maximum drop of 180cm and can be shortened at the point of installation.

Where It Works Best

At 40cm across, this is a fitting for a single, deliberate drop rather than a cluster, over a dining table, above a kitchen island, or in an entrance hall with enough ceiling height to let it hang properly. Its smoked glass and gold interior give it more visual weight than Elsa's slimmer glass pendants in the same catalogue, so it suits rooms where you want one obvious focal point rather than several smaller lights working together.

Made By Mantra

Mantra's design credentials are not just marketing, they are backed by external recognition, including a 2024 ADCV Gold award for a modular design from Nacho Timon's team, built with components designed for separate recycling. That same in house design capability, working alongside named collaborators rather than an anonymous factory catalogue, is what produces pieces like Kriss, a shade with enough sculptural confidence to work as a genuine centrepiece. Founded in Valencia in 2000 and now trading across Europe, the Americas, the Middle East and Southeast Asia, Mantra has had more than two decades to refine this balance between striking design and realistic pricing.
