Love this light! Installed it in our cottage up north in place of a can light. Looks amazing. Feels cozier but I can also see my sink better now. Easy to install and fits the style of our cottage so well.. Laura. Lansing, MI. Wed Sep 11 2024

Love better quality than expected all metal!!. Tami. Columbia, IL. Wed Jan 14 2026

Walnut/Black, 9" H x 15.25" W x 15.25" D

This 1-light cone pendant puts all the focus on pared-down minimalism and contrasting materials, giving it a sleek look with nods to industrial design. Its cone shade is crafted from metal, with a contrasting light interior and a walnut finial. This fixture accommodates a single 60W bulb (sold separately) and has a white-finished interior to best catch the light. And since it can be hung on sloped ceilings and is compatible with dimmer switches, it can set the mood just about anywhere.

Very happy with the price vs. what they look like in person. Pretty easy to install aside from having to cut the main cord and then having the nylon to get to the wires, and then recut the wires to have them exposed properly. I installed three over our kitchen island, and (embarrassingly) I actually dropped one because it was not fully secured to the ceiling. When it hit the counter. I expected it to shatter, or have a major dent in it, since the counter quartz and the outside of the light is some meta., but it did not show any major signs of deformation. Still worked great, and looks good.. Anonymous. Sun Mar 03 2024

Smoke, 14.875" H x 5.125"W x 5.125" D , Matte Black

One of my favorite light fixtures in the house!!! I love the combination of brass/black, and how simple this fixture is, yet far from basic. This pendant is hanging at the entrance of my house. Just the perfect brightness for the location, not too dim, not too bright. I have 10' ceilings in this location and the globe is large enough not to get lost. Very nice presence and quality..

Love the look of this pendant! Super simple to install. Lighter in weight than I thought it would be. Color was spot on. Had a small indentation in the side…hardly noticeable, but nonetheless, still there. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5.. Anonymous. US. Wed Dec 28 2022

Finished in your choice of Matte Black, Antique Brass, or Antique Copper, the modern design feels vintage and retro widening the range of compatibility within architectural aesthetics.

I love the minimal profile as it adds light over the dining table without blocking the view outside from my kitchen. Suggest hanging it "temporary" until it's dark out so you can get the level just right for the people in your home. Mine is on a dimmer and works well.. Roxanne. Santa Fe, NM. Sun Nov 23 2025

20" H x 7" W x 7" D, Aged Brass

Burnished Brass

Illuminate your space in style with this dimmable pendant. The single globe design creates ambient lighting, while the frosted glass shade adds a touch of modern elegance. Sloped ceiling compatible and suitable for damp locations. Bulb not included. Designed by Ellen DeGeneres.

Theses are gorgeous fixtures, we have 2 over half of a 10’ length of island, (the other half has a skylight over it). They provide more than enough light, spaced about 18” apart and suspended about 30” above a 36” high countertop. We have 100 watt equivalent LED lamps inside. The fixtures have a cap that is on the top, essentially covering about 20% of the globe, but the overall effect is a nice glow on the walls and ceiling, exactly what we were hoping for. Take care when assembling them the first time that the metal top portion doesn’t drop into the glass globe.. Christine. Dallas, TX. Tue Sep 03 2024

Works great in our space. There is a weird blob of threads on the shade that is kind of annoying, but we just turned that side to the wall. The light diffuser is such a bonus!. Alison. Burien, WA. Sun Mar 29 2026

Brushed Nickel

Staggered geometric accents embellish this pendant light’s simple silhouette, for an open, dynamic profile that engages from every angle. Long-lasting illumination from integrated LED bulbs is diffused by a shade of frosted glass. It’s dimmable + rated for damp spaces.

Exactly the look we wanted. They look fresh and modern and not like everyone else’s typical round or tear drop pendants. Fun and lots of compliments! Minor issue that I think is not the worst still it’s something that should be prevented, but the extension pieces to decide how long the pendant should hang are not from the same color “dye lot” is what we imagine as some of the extensions don’t match in color to the others. But the lights are beautiful and if the focus is on the moments created under them and around the kitchen island, than the mismatched colors are truly not noticeable after a while. Probably worth exactly their price point just because if that discrepancy otherwise they are awesome!!!. Bogdan. Sat Aug 19 2023

17.25" H x 14" W x 14" D, Aged Brass

Wide flat discs house LED engines that disappear when viewed at the pendants edge. Supported at their center by thin tubes and black cable, machined aluminum housings feature laterally cut concentric circles drawing inspiration from the grooves in a vinyl record.

We have a streamlined kitchen island that is not decorative, just functional, like the pendants. I'm thrilled with these LED lights because they're wafer-thin and cast a nice warmth of light based on what I set on the dimmer switch. I am not sure if I have to throw the whole thing out when the puck light expires but I hope not. I enjoy looking at them.. Joyce. Mill Valley, CA. Mon Nov 17 2025

Black/Wood

A stylish way to brighten a space, this pendant is a must-have. With mid-century modern and Scandi-inspired design, this one-light mini pendant brightens your room without taking up valuable space. The dome-shaped canopy shade and adjustable downrods are all made from metal in a clean white finish, while a smooth wood accent finial completes the look with a touch of contrast.

Its a nice lamp. It was easy to assemble. Came with plenty of cord. I bought a 100w equivalent LED Edison style bulb which looks very nice and retro. Biggest complaint was the cord catch that reduces strain on the wiring was made of plastic. It shredded when trying to unscrew it. I had to swag the lamp over so it doesnt quite matter in my situation. It is a design flaw that the manufacturer could fix by replacing that teeny-tiny part with metal.. Chris. Washington. Fri Feb 04 2022

The Chittering Single Light Pendant by Eglo is a beautiful choice for your lighting needs. Hung from a black textile adjustable cord with a gold accent ring and the Black Transparent Vaporized Glass Shade offer the perfect touch of deep neutral color to accent your room.

These pendants are a great addition for a small island countertop (7ft). They really elevated the aesthetic of the lights in our kitchen. You can use any A19 bulb, but we ended up using Edison bulbs to dim the lighting from the pendants. If you're a tall person, make sure you hang them at an ideal height, as the glass does not block all light and will hit your eye level and will not be pleasant -- part of the reason we chose to use Edison bulbs.. Be aware that if you don't have the pendant ready electrical, you will need to install a pendent conversion kit for recessed lighting, which requires a few tools and a capable hand. Conversion kits are cheap-ish, but will require additional cost, which is something we hadn't considered. . Jillian. Westminster, CO. Fri Jun 17 2022

Brushed Brass

Add a touch of glamorous style and warm overhead lighting to your interiors with the Jeffery Single Light Integrated LED Pendant. With Brushed Brass Accent holding the Integrated Light source surrounded by the Clear Glass Cone Shaped Shade adds a touch of luxe appeal while bringing extra opulence when the Light shines through. The adjustable black hanging cord and Brushed Brass Canopy add the finishing touches to this Pendant.

This pendant light was very easy to install and lightweight. This does not come with a light bulb but they were super easy to find small and use less energy than the light fixture I had installed prior so this was a huge plus. The ambient lighting is perfect for over the sink. The only thing I didn’t love was the wire is covered with a black fabric as opposed to what I originally thought was black metal. I don’t love the way the fabric somewhat bends I’d prefer it to look more taut and straight. Otherwise it’s a beautiful and simple light fixture. Jessica. Ansonia, CT. Sat Aug 13 2022

This pendant’s mixed-material shade showcases dramatic diagonal angles inspired by color-blocked abstract art. Crafted from steel + transparent glass, it hangs from a coordinating fabric cord and a simple circular canopy. Pair it with a filament bulb for a warm ambient glow.
