An oversized glass pendant light commands attention through scale and sculptural form. The glass can be clear smoked or colored depending on the style and the way light passes through it becomes part of the design. These fixtures work best in rooms with high ceilings where the proportions read right and the light reaches down into the space. Installation requires ceiling mounting and proper electrical work. The size means one fixture can illuminate a significant area which makes them practical as well as striking. These are the large pendant lights that earn their presence through both form and function.
