Measuring for Pendant Lighting

When installing pendant lighting, it's essential to consider both height and proportion to ensure the perfect balance and functionality in your space.

Kitchen

For kitchen island pendants, hang 76-91cm above the countertop. Space multiple pendants 66-76cm apart, leaving at least 30cm from the edge of the island.

Dining Room

Hang dining room pendants 76cm above the table surface. To determine the ideal fixture width, add the room's length and width in meters, then multiply the sum by 10 and express it in centimeters for proper proportion.

Bedroom

Position bedside pendants at least 76cm above the nightstand surface. Center the fixture over the nightstand to maintain visual balance and ensure adequate task lighting.

Replaced an outdated spotlight track

The change in atmosphere after installing this dual pendant is incredible. It turned an ordinary kitchen counter into a sophisticated entertaining space.

Straightforward fitting for our electrician

Our local sparky had this assembled and mounted onto the ceiling rose within twenty minutes. The slender rod assembly is surprisingly sturdy.

Soothing non-glare light over the pool table

Installed this above our games table in the study. The conical white shades direct the light down precisely where needed without blinding anyone seated around.

Magnificent finish, straight rod mounting needs patience

Delighted with the antique brass patina! Rated 4 stars only because ensuring the vertical stem hung perfectly plumb required two people and a level, but looks divine now.

Exceptional value for an antique-style piece

Saw an almost identical dual-shade island pendant in a Chelsea showroom for four times the price. Quality of metalwork and gilding is genuinely outstanding.

Timeless Georgian elegance for our dining space

Hung this slender two-arm chandelier over our mahogany dining table. The classic fabric conical shades soften the illumination beautifully for evening meals.

Warm, inviting atmosphere for late night chats

The light filtering through the linen-style cream shades creates a lovely amber glow that makes our kitchen feel like a cozy country inn.

Flawlessly packed for safe delivery to Scotland

Was slightly nervous about two fabric lamp shades arriving crushed, but the box was double-walled with custom fitted foam moulds. Immaculate condition.

Subtle grandeur for a country kitchen

The aged foil leaf texture on the metal arms looks straight out of a stately home in Norfolk. Adds instant warmth and depth to our neutral decor.

Clean linear design with understated luxury

The central brass orb details break up the long vertical lines with real architectural subtlety. Switched on or off, it is a magnificent piece.

Exquisite focal point above our kitchen island

The distressed gilt finish on the long drop rod has such an authentic hand-patinated vintage look. The twin white shades throw down a delightful, cozy wash of light.

High quality gilding and sturdy structure

You can tell real attention was paid to the antiqued finish—no cheap spray paint here. The metal arms feel solid and heavy in hand.

Perfect scale for high-ceilinged period homes

We were searching for a long-stemmed fitting for our Victorian town house with lofty ceilings, and this proportion is spot on. Substantial yet graceful.

Lovely aesthetic, shades took a moment to sit level

Gives a stunning traditional country manor feel. 4 stars just because micro-adjusting the fabric shade sitters to sit perfectly parallel took a minute, but hangs rock solid!
