Facet Geometric Pendant Light

The Facet Geometric Pendant Light is built from open metal edges rather than a solid shade, so it draws a shape in the air without blocking the room behind it. That openness is what lets it work over a dining table in a smaller space: you get a strong form at eye level without the visual weight of a closed drum shade.

Light escapes in every direction through the frame, throwing a pattern of straight-edged shadows onto the ceiling and walls that shifts as you move around it. Fit a clear filament bulb and the effect is sharp and graphic; fit an opal bulb and it softens considerably. Velleora Home Decor left that choice open by using a standard socket.

Hang one low over a table, or run three at staggered heights down a stairwell for a piece that reads as an installation. The cable length is adjustable at installation. Fitting should be carried out by a qualified electrician, and the frame should be dusted occasionally with a dry brush, which is faster than wiping each edge.
