Short Guide to Pendant Lights
Selecting the ideal pendant light can transform both style and function in your home. Consider these key factors:
Ceiling Height and Room Size: Pendants work best with ceilings 8ft or higher. For over dining tables, choose a pendant 1/2-2/3 the table’s width. For a 10×10 ft room, aim for 30–40 cm; larger spaces love 50–80 cm and larger.
Lighting Needs: Aim for 1200–2400 lumens or brighter. Dimmable LEDs offer flexibility. Kitchens need bright light, bedrooms a softer glow.
Bulb Compatibility: Choose LED for energy savings or incandescent for warmer tones. Verify bulb types (e.g., E27, GU10) in product details.
Style and Finish: Match materials like glass, metal, or fabric and finishes like chrome, brass or nickel to your accessories for a cohesive look.
Installation: Check the fixture’s weight and electrical requirements. Professional installation is recommended for heavier or multi-pendant setups.
