So on with the post {before I fall asleep}...
Within the world of lighting, theres nothing more classic than the pendant light.
According to Design Boom pendant lamps date back to 2700 BC. It's recorded that the first pendant style light was actually a clay lamp that burned animal fat.
Animal fat? Would that be like bacon grease? Whew...thank God times have changed!
In this month's issue of Country Living, they listed the five most popular pendant lights from leading retailers. They are as follows...
Porter Pendant {Pottery Barn}
$79/$129

Mercury Glass Pendant {Shades of Light}

Trey Pendant {Crate & Barrel}
$229
Outback Warehouse Pendant {Barnlight Electric}

So there you have it. America's most popular pendant lights.
What's your favorite? Have any of these lights found their way into your home?

ReplyDeleteAbout the lights...I don't think I've ever met a pendant that I didn't like!
Good to read you again! I love pendant lights so for me to choose just one is like a mother choosing her favorite child.....
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of motherhood, I am sorry the boys have been sick. Winter is such a taxing time of the year especially when all three of you favor the sun. Hang in there spring is coming!!
I love the Pottery Barn pendants. Hope you were able to unwind and get some much needed sleep. Keep us posted on the lights. Jude
ReplyDeleteLisa, I enjoyed seeing those in the magazine too. They are all beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove pendant lights, especially over islands.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite pendant light of all times is the George Nelson bubble lamp c.1947. I also love that Outback Warehouse Light. Okay, I pretty much love all of them. I can't believe you get a second wind at 11 pm. You are super woman. Guess I'm just getting old.
ReplyDeleteI love a good pendant light! Especially w/ a drum shade:o)

There's a vast range of lamp designs to choose from to suit any look and feel. If you were to place table lamps into two categories, you would put them under either antique style table lamps and modern style table lamps. Table Lamp
