Elstead Issa LED Pendant

Pendant lighting decisions often come unstuck not on aesthetics but on output. A fitting can look exactly right and still leave a space underlit — particularly when the LED source is integrated and there is no straightforward way to swap a lamp for something brighter after installation. Getting the lumen figure confirmed before specifying is the move that saves the project.

For integrated LED pendants, the key variables to confirm upfront are total lumen output, colour temperature, and whether the driver is built in or supplied separately. Lumens measure the total quantity of light produced; colour temperature (measured in Kelvin) controls whether the light reads as warm and intimate or cool and crisp. The Issa delivers 1700lm from its integrated LED source — a useful benchmark when assessing suitability for dining, kitchen islands, or open living areas.

The Elstead Issa is a 30cm LED pendant from Elstead's Issa range, finished in brushed gold with a frosted diffuser at the base. Elstead is a long-established UK lighting brand with a strong track record in specification-grade decorative pendants. The Issa's integrated LED source outputs 1700 lumens, making it well suited to task-adjacent ambient applications — over a dining table, above a kitchen island, or as a statement centrepiece in a well-proportioned room.

Visually, the Issa is defined by its trumpet-style metal body that flows into an ultra-slim, wide circular disk — a smooth, continuous silhouette that reads as both sculptural and restrained. The brushed gold finish on both the shade and ceiling canopy gives it warmth without ostentation, and the frosted underside diffuser softens the LED output across the room below. No variant options are currently listed, so what you see is a single, considered expression of the design.

The Issa features an integrated LED source rated at 1700 lumens. As the LED is built in rather than replaceable, driver compatibility and dimming capability should be confirmed with Elstead or your Lightsource Mallorca contact before finalising the specification. Suspension is via a single cord, and the ceiling canopy is a low-profile cylindrical form in matching brushed metal. Elstead's product warranty ranges from 2 to 20 years depending on model — confirm the applicable term for the Issa at point of order.

At Lightsource Mallorca, we treat pendant specification as a decision, not a purchase. That means confirming lumen output against room size, checking driver and dimming compatibility before anything is ordered, and making sure lead times align with your project programme. The Issa is the kind of considered, design-forward fitting that rewards a careful specification — and we are here to make that process straightforward.
