{"product_id":"blackjack-cirq-pendant","title":"Cirq Pendant Light | Blackjack Lighting","description":"\u003cp\u003eCirq takes a ring of light and turns it on its side. Instead of lying flat under the ceiling like a halo, the satin nickel band hangs vertically on two fine suspension cables, so you see it as a drawn circle in the air. The ring is not quite closed: a small break at the top, where the cables meet it, keeps the form open and makes the circle feel drawn by hand rather than stamped.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe light runs around the inside of the band through a rounded, custom acrylic light guide, which glows along its whole length and sends illumination out in all directions. From the side the fixture is just an inch deep, a thin metal line; from the front it is a full glowing loop. Hung singly it is a quiet sculpture; in a row of two or three, at the same or staggered heights, the open circles start to read like a sequence of letters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA line of light:\u003c\/strong\u003e the rounded acrylic light guide glows around the full ring, giving an even, all-directional light with no visible source.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUpright geometry:\u003c\/strong\u003e the ring hangs vertically, so the circle is seen whole from across the room instead of foreshortened overhead.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe open circle:\u003c\/strong\u003e a small gap at the top of the band, where the two cables attach, keeps the ring visually light and open.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo scales:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.25 in (33.7 cm) or 18.25 in (46.3 cm) across, each just 1 in (2.5 cm) deep.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSatin Nickel:\u003c\/strong\u003e a soft, brushed metal finish that reflects the glow of the light guide along the edges of the band.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlackjack Lighting, Buffalo Grove, Illinois\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCirq Pendant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSignature Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003ePart numbers\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCRQ-13P-SN-12T-30K (13 in);

Trained in industrial design at Syracuse University, Blackman began his lighting career in 1984 at Sonneman Design Group, then founded Blackman Design Associates in 1988, designing decorative and architectural lighting for manufacturers including Kichler. He launched Blackjack in 2013 in suburban Chicago, now based in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, to build fixtures conceived for LED from the first sketch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHis argument is that the LED should change the shape of a light, not just its efficiency. Rather than hiding a new source inside old bulb-and-shade forms, Blackjack designs around the small, flat, cool-running LED: thin discs, slim rods, glowing rings and lenses that let the light itself become the object. In his own words, \"Decorative lighting by its nature is not primarily about optimizing lamp efficiency, it is primarily about decoration!\" Cirq is one of the clearest examples: a glowing ring that could only exist because the source is a slim LED and light guide rather than a bulb.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat is the idea behind Cirq?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA ring of light shown in profile.
