Your Curated Finds — Pendant Lights
Inspired by your brief, I’ve curated a personalised edit of pendant lights that balance farmhouse warmth with a clean, modern feel. I’ve focused on simple silhouettes, tactile finishes and designs that will work beautifully over a kitchen island or dining area.
A note on dimming: I’ve looked through the specifications and selected options listed as dimmable where this information was available. However, dimming can also depend on the bulb you choose and the compatibility of your existing wall dimmer/switch, so I’d recommend checking both before purchasing.
If you'd like a little more support pulling everything together, take a look at Style, our room design service at Design Lab By Livingetc. We'd have a 45-minute one-to-one call to discuss your space, and afterwards I'd put together a full moodboard for your space, along with tailored product recommendations and a clear design direction.
I hope you find the selection useful and, most importantly, that you discover a sofa that feels like the right fit for your home. I’d love to know which ones stand out to you.
Best wishes,
Iokasti
I love the simplicity of this one. The clear ribbed glass adds a little texture without making the space feel busy, while the metal chain gives it a relaxed, slightly farmhouse feel. It would look especially good hung above a kitchen island. It’s listed as dimmable and takes an E27 LED bulb.
This is such a nice way to bring a softer feel into a modern kitchen. The rounded globe and subtle ribbed detailing add texture, while the opal glass gives a gentle, ambient glow. I particularly like the contrast of the soft glass with the chrome details. It’s also listed as dimmable, with an E27 fitting.
For a kitchen island, I really like the proportions of this linear design. The three-bulb arrangement gives you a practical spread of light while the black finish keeps the look crisp and contemporary. It’s a great choice if you want something minimalist but still visually strong.
A softer, more understated option that would work beautifully in a pared-back kitchen. The simple white form keeps the look light and modern, while its rounded shape adds a subtle softness. I’d choose this if you want the lighting to complement the kitchen rather than dominate it.
