Description
Overview
The Unbeaten Floor Light in Brushed Aluminium (BLF11AL-FUN01M2) was designed in 2024 and is made in India. Skilled craftspeople hand-spin and hand-brush post-consumer recycled aluminium, and a custom integrated LED module supplies the light.
Construction
Aluminium forms the shade and cast iron forms the base. The finish is brushed, via hand spinning, hand brushing and lacquering. The 6W LED is included, inline dimming is possible, and the switch is on the 250 cm black fabric cable.

- Shade: diameter 35 cm (13.8 in), height 41 cm (16.1 in)
- Source: 6W LED, 800 lm, 3000K
- Weight: 11.9 kg

Story
An evolution of Beat
Unbeaten is an inevitable evolution of the original, iconic Beat. Where Beat emphasised the handicraft skills of the metalworkers of Moradabad, Unbeaten shows hand-spun and hand-brushed aluminium in its raw state.
Same factory
The pieces are made in the same Indian factory as the Beat shades, with machine tools and recycled aluminium. The warm-white 3000K source has a rated life of 50000 hours.
