Smoked Glass Globe Pendant Light | Brass Nordic Hanging Lamp

A Glass Globe, A Brass Collar, A Filament You Can See

Tinted glass over an exposed bulb is one of those combinations that never really goes out — it is the reason every decent bar and half the coffee shops in the country look the way they do. The globe here is blown glass in amber, clear or smoke grey, hung from a slim brushed brass fitting, with the bulb sitting in the middle of the sphere where you can see it.

The tint does the work. Amber warms the whole room and turns the filament honey-coloured. Smoke grey knocks the glare down and looks expensive against a dark wall. Clear is the cleanest and the brightest of the three.

Small Enough To Use In Threes

This is a compact pendant rather than a statement chandelier, which is what makes it flexible. One over a bedside table, a pair either side of a bed, or three in a row over a kitchen island or a breakfast bar. The flex adjusts at the ceiling rose so you can set the drop to the room.

Warm White, And Kept That Way

Warm white light is what makes tinted glass work — a cool bulb turns amber muddy and smoke grey flat. Fit a warm filament-style bulb and the globe does exactly what the photographs show.
