Pendant lamps

Pendant lighting straddles the fine line between artistry and functionality; it is a source of illumination that also functions as a decorative piece. The dual function is probably the reason why pendant lights are becoming an increasingly popular residential and commercial décor element.

Pendant lights, sometimes referred to as pendant suspender or pendant drop, come in all sorts of sizes and designs. They can be used individually or collectively to create the right lighting texture and luminosity. Regardless of whether you’re looking for pendant lighting for kitchen or designer pendant lighting, RoyalDesign has everything you could possibly need. To that end, let’s explore several popular variants of pendant lights.

Bowl/Inverted Pendant Lights

The bowl and inverted pendant lights are arguably the most popular of the lot. The basic design involves placing a light bulb inside a small bowl. The design can be inverted to disperse the light upwards. These variants are typically seen in dining rooms and corner nooks of restaurants. Globen Lighting Bowl Pendant, a large pendant lighting, is a classic example of this. The seemingly simple design belies its beauty, which can be further augmented using glass shades of different colours.

Lantern Pendant Lights

Lantern pendant lights typically consist of a light source inside a metal or glass enclosure. They are commonly used to illuminate hallways and halls. Many models use more than a single light source, but the lights are usually adjustable using an attached dimmer. Kartell’s Kabuki Pendant, in light blue finish, is how a typical lantern pendant looks like. It’s probably worth mentioning the fact that its neo-baroque external finish is sublime!

Glass Pendant Lights

Glass pendant lights are arguably the most attractive variant of pendant lights owing to their sleek design and low light resistance. They can be used anywhere and for any occasion. However, due to their relatively high luminosity, they are frequently used to light up large rooms and areas.

Shade Pendant Lights

The most flexible and versatile pendant lights! You can dress them up anyway you want to create your own shade of choice. You can even purchase spare attachments like double shades, geometric quills and more.

As you can see, you have an incredible amount of freedom to change the way your house looks and feels. What are you waiting for?
