Lotus Petal Pendant Light, Cream Fabric and Black Wire Chandelier for Dining Room, Living Room and Entryway, Warm White
Lotus Petal Pendant Light, Cream Fabric and Black Wire Chandelier for Dining Room, Living Room and Entryway, Warm White
Cream fabric over black wire, and the ribs show through like a lotus seen from below.
Details
This lotus petal pendant light is cream fabric stretched tight over a black wire frame, so the petal shape holds and the ribs show through as dark lines. From below it looks like an open lotus, and that contrast keeps it from reading as a plain drum shade. The fabric doubles as the diffuser, so from the table you see a glowing flower, not a bright point.
Over a dining table it hangs like a flower above the plates and gives a warm, even light. In an entryway it is the first thing a visitor looks up at, and the black wire stops it vanishing against a white ceiling. The 50 cm suits an entry hall or a small table, the 60 cm a dining table or the center of a living room. Cream suits oatmeal linen, pale wood and off-white walls.
Materials are fabric and metal, a cream shade on a black frame, with warm white light, in 50 cm or 60 cm. A soft brush or lint roller takes the dust off, working down each petal. Never wet it, because damp cloths leave rings on stretched cream fabric. Wipe the wire dry, switch off and let it cool before cleaning, and keep it away from cooking grease.

Why it earns its place
Ribs that show
The cream fabric is stretched over a black wire frame and the ribs stay visible through it, which is what turns a plain fabric shade into a flower.
Soft, even light
Fabric softens the light across the whole shade, so from the table you see a glowing flower rather than a bright point.
Two diameters
50 cm for an entryway or over a small table, 60 cm over a dining table or in the middle of a living room.
In your home
Over a dining table it hangs like an open flower above the plates and gives a warm, even light that is kind to faces. In an entryway it is the first thing a visitor looks up at, and the black wire keeps it from reading as a plain white shade against a white ceiling.
The cream fabric goes with oatmeal linen, pale wood and off-white walls without clashing, and the black frame picks up black door hardware, a black dining chair or a dark table leg. Hang it low enough that you see the petals from the side, not just the underside.
Materials and quality
Cream fabric on a black wire frame. The fabric is stretched over the wire, not draped, so the petal shape holds and the ribs stay visible as dark lines through the cream. That contrast is what makes it read as a lotus rather than a drum shade. The frame is metal, the fabric is the diffuser, and the light it gives is warm white. Two sizes, 50 cm and 60 cm.
Care and everyday use
Dust the fabric with a soft brush or a lint roller, working from the top of each petal down. Do not wet the fabric; a damp cloth leaves rings on stretched cream fabric. Wipe the black wire with a dry cloth. Switch off and let it cool before you clean it, and avoid hanging it where cooking grease would settle.
Good to know
Is the fabric white or cream?
Cream. Against a pure white ceiling it reads slightly warm, which is softer than white, and the black wire gives it an edge.
Which size for a dining table?
60 cm over a dining table; 50 cm over a small round table, in an entryway or on a hallway landing.
Does the black frame look industrial?
No. The wire sits under the fabric as ribs, so the effect is a flower with dark veins rather than a cage.
