A 12-inch mini pendant from Nuvo Lighting's Augusta collection, blending mid-century modern style with a black and wood finish for kitchen islands and dining rooms.
The Augusta mini pendant combines a sleek black metal canopy and frame with a warm wood accent, creating a clean, retro-inspired look. Its compact size makes it ideal for focused task lighting over a kitchen island, breakfast bar, or small dining table. The open design allows the bulb to become part of the aesthetic, making it a great choice for spaces where you want the light source to be visible.
Best for
- Kitchen islands 4-6 ft long, hung in a row of two or three for balanced task lighting
- Breakfast nooks and small dining tables, centered 30-36 inches above the tabletop
- Entryways and hallways with 8-9 ft ceilings, used as a single statement pendant
- Mid-century modern or industrial-style interiors where exposed bulbs and mixed materials are desired
Not ideal for
- Bathrooms or covered outdoor areas - this fixture is rated for dry locations only
- Spaces under 7 ft ceilings - the pendant hangs down approximately 12 inches plus chain length
- Primary room lighting in large living rooms or open-concept spaces - it's designed for accent or task use
How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb used (not included). With a standard 60W incandescent bulb (approx. 800 lumens), it provides comfortable task lighting for a kitchen island or dining table. For a softer glow, use a 40W bulb (approx. 450 lumens). LED bulbs are recommended for energy efficiency and longer life.
Light color and feel
Color temperature is determined by the bulb you choose. For a warm, inviting ambiance, select a 2700K-3000K LED bulb. The open design means the bulb is fully visible, so choose a decorative bulb (Edison-style or globe) to enhance the mid-century aesthetic. The fixture is dimmable when used with a dimmable bulb and compatible dimmer switch.
