Home > Kitchen Island Lighting
The popularity of open plan living means that our kitchens – and their lighting schemes –need to work on many levels to cater for all the activities that take place in them. We need the right light for tasking, dining, relaxing, working and entertaining. Kitchen islands are often the central part of the room where you might wish to make a statement, as well as providing you with an opportunity to introduce tasking and accent lighting to enhance your space.
A great lighting scheme has the power to transform an ordinary kitchen into a truly spectacular one. A cleverly positioned light can make a small room appear larger, disguise awkward architecture, compensate for poor natural light or accentuate natural features. Our gorgeous collection of kitchen pendant come in a range of painted, warm brass and copper tones or and cool metallic finishes to suit every style of home, and have been specially designed with kitchen island, breakfast bar or kitchen table in mind.
Classic glass pendants
The translucent qualities of glass can transform a room, creating a stunning focal point without losing any sense of space. Our hand blown glass shades in plain, fluted and coloured glass styles, are specially designed to hang above kitchen islands and breakfast bars where they will make the most of natural light to create a bright and airy sense of space and feeling of flow from one area of your kitchen to another.
Sizing kitchen
island pendants
Choosing the right size can depend upon the height of the ceiling, the amount of light in the kitchen and the decor of the surroundings. Below we have listed some of the most popular customer choices for you to see how well the lights work with your kitchen.
Pendants are usually hung 70-90cm from the worktop depending on your preference. If you wish to have the cable/chain height changed you can do so by contacting us directly for a quotation >
