A Bold Eight Light Bar for Long Tables and Kitchen Islands
The Gibson 8 light bar pendant pairs hammered black metal with natural linen shades, creating a striking horizontal light fitting well suited to a long dining table or kitchen island. It is also a genuinely large fixture, spanning 91cm in length with a drop that adjusts up to 150cm, so it is worth checking these measurements against your space before ordering.
Materials and Finish
Made from mild steel and fabric, finished in hammered black metal with natural linen shades in a neutral tone. The mix of dark textured metal and soft fabric gives the bar a warm, tactile look rather than a purely industrial one.
How It Works
Takes 8 x E14 candle bulbs, not supplied, and is dimmable when used with dimmable bulbs and a suitable LED dimmer such as a V-Pro rotary dimmer switch. The bar is height adjustable to suit your ceiling and table. This is a Class I fixture, which means it requires an earth connection. Installation should always be carried out by a qualified electrician.
Where It Works Best
A statement bar pendant for the living room, dining room or hallway, ideal above a long dining table or a run of kitchen worktop, where its horizontal shape spreads light evenly along the surface below.
