Classic Cone Pendant Lights
EXPLORE CLASSIC CONES
Large Classic Cone
Our most popular size for kitchen island benches and dining areas.
Designed to anchor a space, it brings a textural, organic presence that grounds the room without overpowering it.
Approx. 46cm diameter, 31cm height.
Shown here as installed by a customer.
Medium Classic Cone
Perfect for bedside, hallways and smaller kitchens and dining spaces.
A lighter, more understated option designed for more intimate spaces. If you're deciding between sizes, the Large often feels more proportionate over kitchen islands (see below for more guidance on placement).
Approx. 30cm diameter, 22cm height.
Large Ripple
EXPLORE LARGE RIPPLE
A visually lighter option for bedside or above dining tables and kitchen islands.
Although similar in diameter to the Large Classic Cone, the Large Ripple feels lighter due to its lower profile. This makes it especially well suited to lower ceiling spaces.
Approx. 45cm diameter, 17cm height.

Small Ripple
EXPLORE SMALL RIPPLE
Our smallest family member, and a much loved favourite. The Small Ripple is ideal for bedside and reading nooks.
It has a substantial, textural feel with a beautifully simple form, bringing warmth and character to more intimate spaces.
Approx. 15cm diameter, 20cm height.
Some other guidance
- Kitchen islands: The number of pendants is ultimately a personal decision, guided by the proportions of your space and your preferred style. As a general guide, 2-3 pendants spaced evenly across an island is the most popular choice. We recommend allowing around 30cm from each end of the bench, with similar spacing between each pendant. Pendants are typically hung 70–80cm above the bench.
- Dining tables: Spacing is similar to kitchen islands, or you can create a more relaxed look by mixing shapes or sizes above longer tables. Aim to hang pendants 65–75cm above the table to keep sightlines open.
- Bedrooms: This is often more about visual balance than strict rules. Bedside pendants are usually hung approx. 70cm above the bedside table to create a softer, ambient glow rather than task lighting.
- Light quality: All of our pendants are designed to feel warm and atmospheric. We recommend using a dimmable globe.
