A Warm Drop of Retro Diner Glow
The American Diner Pendant brings the same ribbed glass dome as the flush version, but hung on a chain so it drops down over a table or worktop rather than sitting against the ceiling. Light spreads out through the ribbed glass in soft vertical lines, giving a warm, diffused glow rather than a single hard beam.
Antique Brass and Glass
The gallery and ceiling rose are finished in antique brass, with a softly aged tone rather than a bright polish, paired with a clear ribbed glass shade. It has the look of an old fashioned factory or diner pendant without being an exact reproduction.
How It Works
- Steel frame with a clear ribbed glass shade
- Takes 1 x E27 bulb, around 6W LED (60W incandescent equivalent), not included
- Compatible with dimmer switches when used with dimmable bulbs and controls
- Hangs on a chain, height adjustable up to a maximum drop of around 120cm
- Wired to Class I (earthed) safety standards
Where It Works Best
Hung low, it works well as a single pendant over a kitchen island, breakfast bar, or dining table, or in pairs and rows for a run of worktop lighting. The diner styling also suits a hallway or snug where a bit of retro character is welcome.
