Tilt Large Adjustable Pendant by Nyta

Tilt Large Adjustable Pendant by Nyta — the generous Tilt shade in matte aluminium, tilted and turned by hand to aim the light.

Designed in Germany, made in Europe.

The Design Story

Nyta began in Germany in 2012, when designer Fabian Maier and architects Johannes Marmon and Johannes Müller set out to make lights that are smart in use and quiet in form. The team still designs almost everything in-house and builds it in Europe, close to its partners. Tilt is the idea that put Nyta on the map: a shade that works as a reflector you can steer by hand. Among the honors Nyta lists are Chicago’s Good Design Award and the German Design Award, both in 2015.

Why You’ll Love It

Most pendants light one spot forever. Tilt Large pendant lets you choose: tip the shade toward the table at dinner, swing it to the sofa later, or turn it to graze a wall. The solid aluminium shade has a calm matte finish in black, white or grey, and the textile-wrapped cable adds a crafted touch.

Made for Real Life

An electrician wires it to the ceiling; the self-fastening hanging mechanism then holds it neatly in place. Dust it with a dry cloth, power off. Hang several from one plate with the Multiple Canopy for Tilt Pendant Clusters by Nyta, or see the Tilt Large Pendant in Solid Brass by Nyta.

Over the dining table, above the desk, beside a reading chair, or aimed at a favorite print.

Questions We Hear Most

Why does the shade of the Tilt Large pendant move?

Its oblong opening lets the shade pivot up to 125° and spin a full 360°, a cupped reflector you steer by hand toward the table, the wall or a favorite chair.

Which bulb goes in the Tilt Large pendant?

An E26 bulb of up to 60 W, bought separately, on standard 120V AC. A warm-white LED gives the softest light.

What are the measurements of the Tilt Large pendant?

The shade is 27.9 cm wide and 24.4 cm high (11 × 9.6 in), on a 305 cm (120 in) textile-wrapped cable with a 14 cm canopy; it weighs 1.0 kg.

Is the Tilt Large pendant suitable for a steamy bathroom or a porch?

Better not: its IP20 rating means dry indoor spaces only, such as living, dining and sleeping areas.

Where does the Tilt Large pendant look best? (our styling advice)

Above a dining table or a desk, or in a row over an island with each shade angled differently. It suits Scandinavian, industrial and modern rooms.

Can the Tilt Large pendant be part of a cluster?

Yes: Nyta’s Multiple canopy gathers three or five Tilt-family pendants onto one ceiling plate.
