Marlen Squared Paper Column Pendant

Product Description

 

SevernLighting

The Marlen Squared Paper Column Pendant Light is a tall four-sided lantern of handmade mulberry paper (washi-style) over a fine wire frame, with softly rounded corners rather than sharp edges. Lit, the paper turns the bulb into a single glowing column and the horizontal ribs surface faintly across each face.

FIXTURE DETAILS

 The squared profile is what sets it apart from a round paper pendant — flat faces catch light evenly and the fixture lines up with the geometry of a table, an island or a stairwell instead of floating as a sphere.

Finding Your Fit

Marlen comes in two sizes — Small (13″ cube) and Large (17.7″ cube). Hang a single lantern over a dining table or kitchen island so the bottom sits about 30–36″ above the surface, or use it for soft ambient light in a bedroom or study. It suspends from a standard cord and canopy, and size and color are made to order.

DETAILS MATTER

What Makes It Special

01  Ribs That Appear When It's Lit

A fine wire frame holds the paper taut, and once the light is on the ribs surface as faint even lines across every face — structure becoming pattern, visible only when it's working.


02  Mulberry Paper With Real Grain

The shade is handmade plant-fibre paper, so the surface carries a faint irregular texture and a warmth in tone that printed film sheets never develop.


03  Hangs True on a Sloped Ceiling

The lantern suspends from a cord rather than a rigid rod, so it drops plumb no matter what angle the ceiling runs at — vaulted, pitched or under a stair, with no special adapter needed.


Product FAQ

What sizes does it come in, and which should I choose?

Marlen comes in two sizes: Small (13″ cube) and Large (17.7″ cube). Choose Small for a bedroom, home office, reading corner, or as a cluster, and Large to anchor a dining table or kitchen island. Size can also be tailored made to order.

How high should I hang it?

Over a dining table or kitchen island, hang it so the bottom of the lantern sits about 30–36″ above the surface. In a bedroom, office, or reading corner, keep it high enough to clear head height. It suspends from a standard cord and canopy — no rigid rod — so the drop can be set to your ceiling.

What kind of light does it give, and is it dimmable?

The whole paper shade glows as one soft, even volume, so the light is warm and ambient rather than a harsh, direct beam. It takes an E26 or E27 bulb (not included); for the coziest effect, use a 2700K–3000K warm-white bulb. Dimming depends on the bulb and wall switch you pair with it.

What is the shade made of, and will it yellow?

The shade is handmade mulberry (washi-style) paper over a fine wire frame, with softly rounded corners rather than sharp edges. Washi holds its tone well indoors, away from moisture and direct sun; dust it gently with a soft dry brush. It’s rated for indoor use only.

What finishes does it come in, and is it in stock?

The shade is white, with your choice of white or black wire. Because the shade is handmade paper, the ribbing and tone are subtly unique to each piece. The standard sizes are in stock and ready to ship; custom size and color are made to order.

  • Address Errors: Please double-check your address at checkout. We cannot be responsible for packages lost or misdelivered due to an incorrect address. Once shipped, address changes are not guaranteed and carriers may charge a fee.

Shipping & Returns

Return and Exchange Policy:

  • 30-Day Return & Exchange Window: Contact us within 30 days of receiving your order for a return or exchange, based on the delivery date confirmed in your tracking record. Requests submitted after 30 days cannot be processed.
  • Eligibility: Items must be unused and in original condition with all tags, labels, packaging, accessories, and manuals intact. Fixtures requiring assembly must be returned unassembled — pieces that have been installed, or that have damaged wiring or loosened components, are not eligible. A valid order number or proof of purchase is required.
  • Non-Returnable Items: Made-to-order, customized, and personalized pieces; light bulbs and consumables once opened; items no longer in original condition or with damaged packaging; and final sale items.

Return Shipping Costs:

  • Our Responsibility: If the return is due to a product quality issue, manufacturing defect, shipping damage, incorrect delivery, or a package returned to sender undelivered, we cover all return shipping costs including any applicable customs fees, and issue a full refund or a free replacement.
  • Customer Responsibility: If the return is based on personal preference — color, design, or features not matching expectations, size judged incorrectly, change of mind, or ordering the wrong item, model, or quantity — the customer covers return shipping and any related customs fees.

Exchanges & Cancellations:

  • Exchanges: The fastest route is to return the original piece, then place a new order once the return is approved. For quality or damage issues we cover both directions; for personal-preference exchanges, the customer covers return shipping on the original plus the full price of the new piece.
  • Order Cancellation: Stock items can be cancelled free of charge within 24 hours. After 24 hours but before shipping, a $50 handling fee applies. Once shipped, orders cannot be cancelled — please follow the return process instead. Made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled once confirmed, as production begins immediately.

  • Step 1 — Submit your request: Email kay@severnlighting.com within 30 days with your order number, the items involved, a detailed reason for the return, and photos of any damage or issue.
  • Step 2 — Receive your RMA number: We will issue a Return Merchandise Authorization number along with the return address. Returns sent without prior authorization cannot be accepted or processed.
  • Step 3 — Pack and ship: Repack the piece securely in its original packaging with all accessories and a copy of your order confirmation. Mark the RMA number clearly on the outside of the parcel, then email us the return tracking number.
  • Step 4 — Inspection: We inspect returned pieces within 3-5 business days of arrival and confirm approval by email.

Refund Processing:

  • Timing: Refunds are issued automatically to your original payment method — typically 1-3 business days for PayPal and 5-7 business days for credit or debit cards. Your bank may need additional time to post the credit. If you have not received your refund within 15 business days of approval, email us with your order number.
  • Return Address: Returns are received at our facility in Jiangmen, Guangdong, China. For customer-initiated returns, please factor international return shipping into your decision — we will confirm the full address and estimated cost when we issue your RMA number.
