A-Tube
A simple metal tube, just over two inches across, with the light tucked up inside so all you see is a clean circle of glow at the bottom. Three lengths let you hang them in a row over an island or stagger them into a cluster.
From$445
Single pendant, 11¾″ long, in matte white or black. Clusters are configured and quoted by Switch, canopy included. Some versions ship from the manufacturer’s stock; others are made to order in Italy. We confirm lead time with every quote.
Sizes & finishes
Three lengths, four finishes.
Over an island we usually run three to five in a line. In a stairwell or double-height entry, a cluster at varied lengths does the work of a chandelier. Clusters are where we earn our keep: we lay out the pattern and the canopy for you.
Switch note| Size | Dimensions | From |
|---|---|---|
| Small | 11¾″ long, 2⅝″ diameter | $445 |
| Medium | 23⅝″ long | $640 |
| Large | 39⅜″ long | $885 |
Prices shown are for one pendant in matte white or black; champagne and natural brown cost a little more. Takes a standard PAR16 LED bulb, not included. Cable up to 157″. Canopies for multi-pendant clusters are priced separately. Looking for something finer? The A-Tube Nano is under an inch across, from $390.
Build a cluster
Tubes alone, or mixed with Volum.
On our floor, white A-Tubes share two round canopies with Volum glass globes: slim lines against round glass. Come see it before you plan your own.
Switch noteEvery A-Tube is priced on its own. For a cluster, add one Lodes multi-port canopy sized to the number of lights, in matte white or matte black. A-Tube can share a canopy with Volum, as ours does.
| Canopy | Lights | From |
|---|---|---|
| Single | 1 | $180 |
| Radial | up to 4 | $340 |
| Round | 3 | $715 |
| Round | 5 | $820 |
| Round | 7 | $960 |
| Round | 9 | $1,460 |
Example: two A-Tubes and one Volum 22 on a round 3-light canopy: 2 × $445 + $690 + $715 = $2,295.
