In line with style
This season we’re drawn to linear pendants with soft color, sculptural simplicity and unexpected finishes, from the tranquil tones of seagrass to the depth of matte metal blue: a fresh take on a classic form.
Pro tip: Choose a linear pendant about two-thirds the length of your island or table, and center it so light falls evenly end to end.
