Know before you buy
Because each shade is hand-blown in our factory, you may notice slight variations in the glass. These subtle imperfections are a hallmark of the artisanal process and ensure that every piece is unique.
The clear and anthracite glass finishes are transparent, making them ideal for showcasing decorative filament bulbs. If you prefer a softer, diffused glow without seeing the bulb structure, the opal glass is the better choice.
The standard brass finish offers a bright, polished look that adds a touch of warmth to a space. The weathered brass finish has a more muted, aged patina, which works well if you are aiming for a vintage or industrial aesthetic.
The size selection depends on your ceiling height and the scale of your room. We recommend the smaller size for hallways, powder rooms, or clusters, while the medium size is better suited for kitchen islands, dining tables, or larger living areas.
Yes, the chain suspension allows you to adjust the drop of the fixture to suit your specific ceiling height. You can remove links during installation to achieve the desired hanging position.
