White Pendant Lighting

Why We Love White Pendant Lighting

Furnishings decked out in white infuse purity of design throughout your home. In particular, white pendant lights elevate the look and feel of your spaces, lending blissful sophistication that enhances the effects of your current décor and color scheme as well as any future modifications. Beyond aesthetics, pendant lighting offers functional illumination in places where the fixture becomes a true part of the visual landscape of your home. These lights give a modern take on hanging lights, creating enjoyable spaces that enhance the ambiance while also offering task lighting or an added layer of light to complement existing lighting systems.

Where White Pendant Lights Work Best

The neutral hue of white hanging lights makes them ideal for just about any space in the house. Consider uplifting the mood of your dining room with a majestic pendant in place of a common chandelier. You could do the same in your kitchen above the table or hang a series of white pendants along with the ceiling over a bar or kitchen island. Modern pendant lights add a touch of sophisticated style to the master bedroom, updating the look to deliver greater visual impact. Entryways gain an air of stately splendor with an impressive pendant and the white finish allows for perfect coordination with the wall color and other décor. Your guests are guaranteed to be impressed the second they walk in the door.

White Pendant Light Ideas for Every Style

From minimalistic charm to true luxury, you can find white hanging lights to suit any space and style preference. Iconic mid-century modern designs in the Nelson Bubble Lamps collection embrace an airy splendor all their own, complete with rippled surfaces and delivery of perfectly diffused light. With Umage, it's all about texture. From the look of a fluffy cotton ball to a spiky pinecone, these white pendant lights look so spectacular that you almost want to reach out and touch them. The exquisite Scandinavian designs of Le Klint also focus on texture, presenting pretty pendant options that ripple, curve and crimp to your heart's delight.

How to Choose the Best White-Shade Hanging Lights

When you add pendant lighting to various living spaces, you are making a design statement that elevates the overall style of your home. To choose pendants to hang over a surface like a table or countertop, measure the width or diameter of the surface and subtract 12 inches. That number is now the maximum width or diameter of a pendant light that would work above that surface. For ceiling pendants, be sure to allow for at least one foot of space above the heads of people walking beneath the light. Once you've got the measurements down, you can take in all the choices of white pendant lights in all their beauty. Choose a design that reflects your personal sense of style and enhances the mood of your rooms. You can also refine your choice by specific light sources (LED vs. incandescent for example) and be prepared with the right style of light bulb.

Other Considerations

If you like the way white hanging lights can transform your home's aesthetic, you may also enjoy other pristine lighting elements for the home. Consider wall sconces to set off mirrors, fireplaces, beds and other key spaces in the home, also layering your lighting for optimal illumination. Choosing white wall lights will also complement your choice of pendant lighting of the same color. In areas of the home constricted by space, you may benefit from using a set of mini pendant lights. Mini pendants are similar in design to this assortment of white light fixtures, however, there sizing is much smaller and more ideal to be used in stringing lighting together.
