What customers say

Its premium quality materials and flawless finish are consistently highlighted, establishing it as a top tier fixture.

Know before you buy
This fixture uses one 100W E26 medium base bulb. You can use standard incandescent, LED, or CFL bulbs as long as they fit the E26 base and do not exceed the 100-watt maximum.
The Elsa Mini Pendant is rated for dry locations only. It is best suited for kitchens, dining areas, or entryways, but should not be installed in bathrooms or areas exposed to moisture.
Because each piece is hand-forged and hand-painted, you may notice slight variations in the finish and texture. This artisanal process gives the steel a unique, high-quality character that mass-produced fixtures lack.
The fixture includes a cord or stem for suspension, but you should verify the specific included hardware length upon arrival. It is designed to be hung at a fixed height, making it ideal for task lighting over islands or tables.
Low-VOC paint contains fewer volatile organic compounds, which are chemicals that can off-gas into your home air. Choosing this fixture supports better indoor air quality compared to products finished with traditional high-VOC paints.
The Elsa is designed primarily for focused, downward task lighting. While it is excellent for highlighting a kitchen island or a dining table, it is best used as an accent or task light rather than the sole source of ambient light for a large room.
