Wit 7 Glass Cylinder Linear Suspension by Sean Lavin for Visual Comfort

Wit 7 strings glass cylinders on metal bands into a bright, crisp line.
The Design Story
Sean Lavin designed Wit as a row of glass cylinders.
Lit, it is a striking line; unlit, a piece of decor.
Why You'll Love It
It is bright, graphic and easy to coordinate.
Made for Real Life
Nothing to relamp: the light source is built in. Polish the glass now and then with a soft microfiber cloth. A soft, dry cloth keeps the metalwork clean. It mounts on rigid stems, so you can set the drop precisely. Pair it with an LED-compatible ELV dimmer to go from bright to candle-soft.

Sizing & Installation
A linear piece looks right when it is shorter than the table it lights. For the Wit 7:
| Table length | 96″ or longer |
|---|---|
| Height over the table | 30–36″ from tabletop to fixture |
| Ceiling 8 ft | set the drop to about 30–36″ |
| Ceiling 9 ft | set the drop to about 42–48″ |
| Ceiling 10 ft | set the drop to about 54–60″ |
The numbers assume a 30″ table (our math). It is hardwired, so book a licensed electrician.

Questions We Hear Most
What is the idea behind the Wit 7?
Sean Lavin designed it so that it strings glass cylinders on metal bands into a bright, crisp line. It belongs to Visual Comfort's Wit family, which comes in several sizes and versions.
Which Wit 7 finish works with my palette?
Our take: black gives a crisp, graphic outline.
Can the Wit 7 be the only light in the room?
In most rooms, yes. It gives 5,606 lumens at 90 CRI, and with a compatible dimmer you can take it from bright to atmospheric.
How long should my table be for the Wit 7?
Choose a table of about 96″ or longer so the 84.1″ fixture sits comfortably inside the ends.
Will the Wit 7 work outside under a roof?
Yes. Visual Comfort rates it for damp interiors and outdoor spaces under cover, so a loggia or covered patio is fine; keep it out of direct rain.
Will I ever change a bulb in the Wit 7?
There are no bulbs. The light comes from built-in LED modules with a 50,000-hour L70 rating, fitted at the factory.
How is the Wit 7 hung?
It is rod (stem) mounted; in the box: (8) 12" and (4) 6" rigid stems. Sloped ceilings up to 45°. A licensed electrician should install it.
How soon can the Wit 7 arrive?
All the versions we offer are in stock right now, and in-stock pieces usually leave within 2–3 business days.
Why We Love It
Wit is wit in glass and light.
