Dar Waco 5-Light Pendant

The Dar Waco 5-Light Pendant is a five-light spider-style ceiling pendant from Dar's Waco range. It pairs a matte-black circular canopy with warm antique-brass die-cast lamp holders and fabric-wrapped flexible cables to create an industrial-minimalist statement.

The design spreads five individual drops from a single mounting point so you can compose a personalised ceiling layout. Each 1.5m cable terminates at a pre-attached metal swag hook, allowing easy adjustment of hanging height and lateral placement without extra wiring.

Construction details include a central metal canopy, cylindrical die-cast lamp holders with a knurled trim and fabric-covered flexible cables. The fixture is often styled with clear teardrop filament bulbs to emphasise its industrial look; the sockets accept standard decorative filament lamps.

Functionally the Waco pendant distributes multiple light sources to deliver broad ambient illumination across a table or open-plan zone while offering control over glare and placement through its adjustable drops. The fitting is IP20 rated for indoor dry-zone use.

Installation notes: cables measure 1.5m and use pre-attached ceiling hooks for adjustable swagging. Bulb supply is not specified; choose compatible decorative filament lamps and a suitable dimmer if dimming is required. Warranty is two years standard, extended to five years with online registration.
