Each features an elongated brushed aluminum housing paired with a broad frosted glass shade, creating a distinctive futuristic silhouette.

A ring of small perforations near the top adds a wonderful graphic detail to the otherwise streamlined aluminum form. The frosted glass shades are held in place by three small screw-in pins and can be completely removed for cleaning or transport. Each pendant takes one standard-base bulb, accessible from below.

The combination of brushed aluminum, softly diffused glass and exaggerated proportions gives these fixtures a great Space Age/Mid-Century/Industrial presence while remaining clean and architectural. They would be especially great hung as a pair over a kitchen island, console or pair of bedside tables. See less
