Description
Bring a soft, sculptural glow to your space with the Nimbus Pendant Light. The Nimbus is one of our favorite pendant light designs at Dryft Home because of its beautiful globe-inspired form — and now you can make your own version at home. If you can't print one yourself and you're in Canada or USA, consider supporting us at https://www.dryfthome.com.
Inspired by the shape of the earth, the Nimbus pendant casts a gentle, diffused glow that works beautifully as an accent light above a table, in an entryway, or along a hallway. It's a fully 3D-printed shade designed to work with a wide range of pendant light cords.
Print instructions are very important for a high-quality finish on your light, so please follow closely. These settings are from Orca Slicer and can be replicated in most modern slicers. We’ve also included Bambu Studio 3MF files to make printing easier — they haven’t been fully tested, so please check your settings before printing. In Bambu Studio you need to implement scarf seams in filament settings if you are using a different filament for the base parts.
To assemble the pendant, you’ll need a pendant cord with a 40mm threaded socket and nut, plus a ceiling canopy kit. We typically use an E26 socket with a roughly 1.5m cord (you can cut to length).
Use LED bulbs only — 9W or less recommended.
If you want the exact cord and canopy kit we use, it’s available here: https://www.dryfthome.com/products/pendant-light-cord?variant=45162523525177
Assembly is more involved than our table lamps but still straightforward:
**If you’re not comfortable installing electrical fixtures, please hire an electrician.**
