Pendant Lights

Pendant lights bring shape, warmth and balance to a room - from kitchen islands and dining tables to stairwells and bedrooms.

Our curated collection includes modern, handcrafted and design-led pendants in glass, ceramic, metal and natural materials, all selected for quality and everyday livability. Perfect for New Zealand kitchens, dining rooms and open-plan living.

How to choose the right pendant

• Hang pendants 75–90cm above a kitchen island for the best light and sight lines

• For dining tables, aim for 70–85cm above the surface

• Use two or three pendants for islands over 2 metres
  

• Warm 2700K–3000K LED light creates a soft, inviting glow for NZ homes
