Mid-Century Modern Pendant Lights

Mid-century modern pendant lights draw on 1950s and 1960s design: dome and flowerpot shades, layered discs, opal glass globes and bold colours. Many are reissues or close relatives of design classics, and they suit dining tables, kitchen islands, reading corners and entries. Over a table, hang a pendant about 30 to 36 inches above the surface and choose a diameter about half the width of the table, or line up two or three smaller shades along an island.
