A 28-inch, 3-light pendant from Innovations Lighting's Athens collection, finished in matte black with mercury glass shades, ideal for kitchen islands and dining rooms.
The Athens pendant combines industrial edge with transitional versatility. Its matte black steel and cast brass frame supports three mercury glass globe shades, creating a warm, reflective glow. The stem-hung design adapts to sloped ceilings, making it a flexible choice for various spaces.
Best for
- Kitchen islands 6-8 ft long, hung 30-36 in above the counter for task and ambient lighting
- Dining rooms with tables 48-72 in long, centered above the table
- Open-concept living areas where a statement pendant defines the dining zone
- Entryways or foyers with ceilings 8-10 ft high, hung as a dramatic focal point
- Covered patios or sunrooms (damp-rated) for weather-resistant style
Not ideal for
- Small powder rooms or hallways where the 28-inch width may overwhelm the space
- Low ceilings under 7 ft, as the pendant requires at least 12-18 in of clearance
- Spaces needing bright, focused task lighting without additional fixtures
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulbs you choose. With three medium-base sockets (E26), using 60W equivalent LED bulbs (about 800 lumens each) yields roughly 2400 lumens total—enough to illuminate a kitchen island or dining table as primary lighting. For a softer glow, use lower-wattage vintage bulbs.
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shades diffuse light softly, creating a warm, ambient glow. For a classic warm white, use 2700K-3000K LED bulbs. The open-bottom design allows some direct light downward, while the glass casts a subtle sparkle on surrounding surfaces.
