Stemlite Pendant Light
Best iconic lighting for design conscious homes.
The Stemlite, designed by Bill Curry in 1962, revolutionized lamp design by being the first 'total look' lamp. It replaced the traditional base-and-shade structure with a single, integrated unit composed of interchangeable modules. This pioneering design features a frosted glass shade, a steel stem, and an aluminum base, offering a sleek and modern aesthetic. It requires one E26 LED bulb, up to 12W, and provides 1100 lumens. The pendant light is cETLus listed and rated for dry locations, with a generous cord length of 157.5 inches and a canopy diameter of 4.3 inches. Available in Black Chrome, Pebble Grey, and Black Red base finishes.
