A 1-light cord pendant with a black glass shade, ideal for kitchen islands and dining areas.
The Kiev pendant features a unique shade that blends shimmering glass with cut metal, creating a compelling optical display. Random stenciled openings in the bottom portion allow light to sparkle through, while the concealed light source focuses the eye through multi-dimensional sightlines. The satin nickel finish on the brass and steel hardware adds a modern touch. This fixture hangs from a 10-foot cord with a low-profile monopoint canopy.

How bright is it?
With a single 60W E26 medium-base bulb (not included), this pendant provides approximately 800 lumens - similar to a traditional 60W incandescent. It's ideal for ambient and accent lighting, not as a primary light source for large rooms.
Light color and feel
