Need help choosing pendants? *photos attached"
Hi Guys,
I'm really struggling on deciding which 2 pendant light fittings would finish our kitchen diner off. As you can see we have quite a pale colour palette.
Any suggestions welcome or advice welcome.
So far we are considering:

Some sort of contrast, as Lauren suggested, would be much better whether it's a different colour or a darker metal. If you want real statement, consider a sputnik light.

7 år sidenHi Kayne, if the lights should be statement lights, maybe some of ours could be an idea as well. They would go perfectly with your table and the chairs. We ship for free inside EU and all ligths are handmade in Denmark. Best Nele | Yndlingsting

7 år sidenWe used a blue Fly Kartell with similar table and chairs and it is definitely a statement piece. Two of them might be a bit too much though, they are quite large. We also have a white kitchen next to it, with bare lamps in colourful fittings. These really come in any colour you want.Renaissance Interiors, Hartley Wintney

And I like the style of pendants you are going for. You can always add more colour with kitchen accessories and some foliage if you prefer the lights to stay white.
If I had to choose from the two I'd go for the second one.
Here are few other options.
Industrial Parabolic Pendants (available in duck egg, white, grey)
The Duck Egg coloured pendant would match your artwork and add more colour...
1 Light Gourd Drop Shaped Ceiling Pendant - White
Norway 1 Light Wood & Metal Ceiling Pendant - Light Wood
Good luck and we'd like to see what you have chosen in the end.

7 år sidenSidst ændret: {last_modified_time}7 år sidenHi Kayne,
Definitely the second one, and I agree re: having a splash of colour in the room but perhaps not in the hanging pendant lights - colourful ones will inevitably date quicker and I think it's always best to go for a neutral base with permanent fixtures, because then you can always choose when and if you want to build colour on top of that base. Black would create more of a contrast and monochrome feel that would fit in perfectly with the Scandi minimalism and light colour palette, but white is always a classic. P. S. What a beautiful kitchen!

7 år sidenWe have similar pale/wood scheme and opted for habitat Marlowe which works well - copper tones nicely with woodblock and prevents its looking too blandcharlie_bill
7 år sideni like the ones that Nele has posted as you get the statement of the light but can see through to the art too. We had the same issue with our light obstructing the view into our garden and went for this Habitat have just launched some similar but can't see the smaller ones on the shop section on in the images

And Kayne, below a picture of how they can look above a dining table.
It is the small black one though.

What a beautiful kitchen, and I love the artwork you have behind the table. We're all about colour at Curiousa so I would have to agree with Renaissance Interiors and suggest going for something colourful to add that extra wow factor.

7 år sidenHi Kayne Cross, to add a little colour and variety to the room, I think a copper tone pendant would work really well. Here are a few examples of the ones we supply. We also do them in grey / graphite tones, but I think the copper would complement the wood worktop. Hope this helps!
