Get Glowing: Choosing the Right Pendant Light

Got light? The right fixture shouldn’t just illuminate—it should serve as an enlightening décor element in its own right. Popular in kitchens, dining rooms, entryways, and hallways, pendant lights are inspired by traditional chandeliers, but reflect a more modern appeal. When choosing the pendant light that’s right for your space, consider the following factors:
  • How big is the space? If you need lighting for a narrow hallway or a small corner nook, a smaller, one-bulb pendant is a smart choice. For larger spaces that demand more illumination, you may want to choose a more substantial fixture with multiple tiers. You may also consider mounting several of the same pendants in a straight line or staggered throughout a room.
  • What’s your décor style? If you’re looking for something to fit a formal space, a crystal-embedded or Tiffany-style light fixture exudes elegance. For contemporary rooms, a chrome, glass, or metal pendant adds sleek appeal. Feeling bold? Choose an exotic pendant shaded in a splash of color.
  • What purpose should the light serve? If a pendant will be mounted over a kitchen island, for instance, make sure it’s at the right height to illuminate your prep space. When hanging a light fixture in a foyer, verify the bulbs are bright enough to cast a welcoming glow.

Brilliant Art Glass Pendants

 

Hand-blown colorful glass pendants become works of art when placed in just the right place in the home. Grouped in multiples of three or five and hung at differing levels, interior pendant lights become a focal point of light and color above a dining area or when placed in a row above a bar. Hang one on each side of the master or guest bed for a little drama.

For fun we picked a few colorful pendants we would like to see hanging around our own homes. Which ones do you like the best? Take a look at all of the art glass pendants we feature and come back and let us know which ones you chose.
