Pendant lights can bring visual interest to a room as well as provide overhead illumination. A new selection highlights seven fixtures, from vintage-inspired designs to understated options for ambient light, aimed at a range of tastes and spaces.
The list includes the Louis Poulsen PH 5 as its overall pick, the Hay Rice Paper Shade as a lantern pendant and the Article Aino Pendant Lamp for task lighting. Other selections are the West Elm Gull Pendant, named best tiered pendant, and the Serena & Lily Wyecreek Saucer Pendant for kitchens.
Rounding out the lineup are George Nelson’s Bubble Saucer Pendant, presented as a design icon, and the Huey Lightshop Nickelby Pendant Light for accent lighting. Together, the seven picks cover several common pendant styles and uses.
