Know before you buy
This fixture requires one 40-watt E26 medium base bulb. Because the glass shade is translucent, we recommend using a decorative filament bulb, such as a Nostalgic thread bulb, to enhance the aesthetic.
No, the Monica pendant is rated exclusively for dry locations. It should not be installed in bathrooms or any areas prone to moisture or high humidity.
The mouth-blown glass features a unique, lightly colored texture that softens the light. It creates a warm, diffused glow rather than a sharp, direct beam, making it ideal for ambient lighting.
The fixture includes a taupe cloth cord, but you should consult with a professional electrician during installation to determine if the cord length can be adjusted to fit your specific ceiling height.
Because of its 9.5-inch diameter, this pendant works best when hung in multiples. We suggest spacing them 24 to 30 inches apart to create a balanced, cohesive look over a bar or island.
