Glass Pendant Lights
Glass pendant lights look light yet still bring character above the dining table or kitchen island. The type of glass makes a real difference to the light: opal glass diffuses it softly, amber and smoked glass bathe the room in warm, muted tones, and rippled or ribbed glass creates lively reflections. In this collection you will find glass pendant lights paired with wood, brass, chrome and travertine.
What to look for in a glass pendant light
- Glare: above a dining table, opal or tinted glass is more comfortable than completely clear glass.
- Number: above a kitchen island, several smaller glass pendants often look more harmonious than one large light.
- Height: hang the light so it lights the table without blocking the view.
Glass type, dimensions and connection are listed on the product page of each glass light.
Frequently asked questions
What does a mirrored glass pendant light look like?
Mirrored glass changes with the light. Switched off, the pendant ZONID reflects the room like a glossy capsule; switched on, its warm light shows through the smoky gray or amber glass. ZONID comes in five sizes from 16 to 38 cm, so it works on its own or in a group.
Can I choose the color temperature of a glass pendant light?
On some models, yes. The Art Deco-inspired fluted glass pendant HARDYO is available in warm white (3000 K), neutral white (4000 K) and cool white (6000 K), with one, two or three stacked modules. Over a dining table, warm white usually feels coziest, while neutral white suits kitchen countertops better.
How do I clean a glass lampshade?
Switch the light off and let it cool down. Then wipe the glass with a soft, slightly damp cloth and a little mild dish soap, and dry it to avoid streaks. On wavy or textured glass such as JASKO or DOURID, a soft brush helps in the grooves; keep metal parts dry.
