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.

Completely transformed our kitchen area

Replaced a plain flush light fitting with this brass sputnik chandelier and the transformation is unbelievable. Everyone who comes over admires it!

Straightforward job for our local electrician

Fitted straight onto our standard ceiling hook and rose wiring without fuss. The central ball junction holds all six arms firmly in place without drooping.

Warm room-filling illumination for dark winter evenings

Casts zero shadows thanks to the clever radial arrangement of the bulb sockets. It makes our dark open-plan living area feel light, bright, and cheerful.

Superb modern chandelier, arm angling needed patience

Truly striking geometric lighting piece! Rated 4 stars only because tightening the multi-angle brass arms into their exact starburst positions took a few minutes, but looks brilliant now!

Designer boutique look without the astronomical price

Saw a nearly identical sputnik pendant in a high-end Marylebone interior store for four times the cost. The brass quality and threading feel premium.

Perfect scale for modern apartment lounge rooms

Gives off plenty of light without cluttering the visual field thanks to the slender brass tubing. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a modern upgrade!

Bright and airy open-bulb illumination for the lounge

Paired this with warm filament globe bulbs and it creates such a dramatic yet welcoming ambiance in our sitting room. Delighted with the craftsmanship.

Exceptionally secure packaging for courier delivery

Arrived in Edinburgh within three days. Each brass arm and socket assembly was individually wrapped in protective tubing inside dense foam. Impeccable condition.

Iconic 1960s space-age aesthetic for our study

The criss-crossing brass rods add so much dynamic energy to an otherwise plain ceiling. The brushed gold coating is smooth, rich, and non-reflective.

Dynamic linear symmetry that catches the eye

Whether turned on or off, the geometric symmetry of the radiating brass arms turns our ceiling into a piece of contemporary sculpture.

Sensational mid-century focal point over our dining table

The multi-directional sputnik design spreads light evenly into every corner of our dining room. The warm brushed brass finish looks incredibly refined.

Heavy-gauge brass tubing with flawless finish

The metalwork feels substantial and solid in hand. The satin brass tone isn't overly yellow or shiny, blending perfectly with our oak floorboards.

D

Architectural elegance with low ceiling clearance

The stem height suspension positions the brass arms perfectly above head height. It instantly modernized our Victorian reception room without feeling bulky.

Gorgeous aesthetic, canopy tucking required a steady hand

Brings incredible character to our hallway landing. 4 stars just because housing the extra wiring inside the brass ceiling canopy took two people, but sits rock solid!
