Paper Pendant Light for Kitchen Island, Cotton Shell Shade

Some lights announce themselves. This one simply makes the room warmer. The whole shell lights from within, so the glow arrives off a broad surface instead of one bright point. Hang it above a dining table and the evening slows down.

A wide, flattened oval that sits low over the table

• Flattened oval profile — far wider than it is tall, so it reads as a low horizontal band above the table rather than a hanging lantern.
• Fine horizontal pleats — narrow ribs run round the shell in close, even lines from the crown to the widest point.
• Frame arcs show through when lit — two faint curved lines cross the glow, tracing the ribs that hold the shape.
• Open underside — the lower rim is left clear, so light falls straight down onto whatever sits below.

Pleated by hand, ribbed edge to edge

The shell is handcrafted, and the pleating runs unbroken across the full width of the shade. Lit, each rib reads as a fine line of shadow against the glow. The result reads as an object in the room, not a fitting on the ceiling.

Fit and placement

Installation is straightforward. Centre a single shade above a round table, or hang two side by side over a longer one, as the photographs show. The shape suits a kitchen, a dining room or a bar, and it stays quiet in a pale, plain-walled interior.

Frequently asked questions

Does one shade light a whole table?
The entire shell glows, so the light spreads across a wide area. The open underside adds a pool of light directly beneath the shade.

Can I hang two over a single table?
Yes. Several of the photographs show a matched pair above one long table.

Will I see the frame through the shade?
Once it is lit, yes. Two faint curved lines trace across the shell, and the pleats read as fine horizontal shadows.
