Lighting treats today people. Just look at this gorgeous metal pendant light with its thick leather strap. It makes me slightly breathless just to look at it. I wish, wish wish I had a high enough ceiling to put this in my kitchen. I’m wondering if I can just do away with the extractor fan over the island altogether so I can have these instead.
Just look at the attention to detail; the small leather fastening at the sides which holds the cage on. It didn’t have to be in leather but what a difference it makes to the whole thing. It costs £215 and the black and grey are available by special order but if you love a thing that much it’s worth waiting for.
It’s from Des Res Design and there are a couple of other beauties in their collection. Such as these silhouette lights one of which I featured in a 10 Beautiful Rooms collection a while ago and several people asked where to buy one. Well now we know.
The table light is £160, the scissor £188 and the floor is £275 all from the same site. You can choose from black or red cord. I’m off to plot some new lighting arrangements, I’ll see you all tomorrow.
hi Kate
Just wanted to say, I love the illustration of you, it’s fab! Got such a lovely quality to it!
Hi Kate
I absolutely love this light with leather strap. I was also very interested in your comment about getting rid of extractor fan over island. Im planning a kitchen in a converted flat and Im struggling to work out where to put extractor and indeed whether or not I actually need one. Very high ceilings and large windows. It would be open plan kitchen /living space and I hate the noise these things make. Im also not really convinced they work – Im not a great cook , more microwave – any advice?
