Fully milky for an even, diffused light or banded with clear for a little sparkle, on satin nickel, bronze or black.
The Design Story
Newton is a globe of blown glass finished with a milky-white décor that casts a semi-translucent glow Besa compares to morning fog. It comes fully milky or partly milky with a clear band, and in two sizes, so it works on its own or grouped. Newton 8 is the larger size, close to eight inches wide. Besa’s signature is the glass. American designers work with European craftsmen, every shade is made by hand, and each one is inspected in Ohio before it leaves the factory, so the small variations you see are the mark of a handmade piece, not a flaw.
Why You’ll Love It
It has real presence but a gentle light. The milk glass hides the source completely, so you get a glowing sphere rather than a bright point, and the CRI 90+ LED keeps skin tones and food looking natural.
Made for Real Life
This 12V version mounts to a regular ceiling box, sloped ceilings included, with its transformer included and partly recessed in the box. Pair it with an ELV dimmer, keep it to dry indoor rooms, and set the drop with the adjustable 10-foot cord. Pairs well with Newton 6 globe mini pendant, Coco 8 glass globe pendant.
