Travertine Tube Pendant Light, Backlit Stone Ceiling Lamp for Kitchen Island, Bar Counter and Restaurant, Warm White
A slim travertine tube where the light finds its way out through the stone
Details
This travertine tube pendant light is a tall, slim tube of natural stone, lit from inside. The glow escapes through the open bottom and through the travertine's cracks and pores, so the tube is backlit from within and the stone is what you see. The flaws a polished stone would hide are the point: they let the light out. Real stone also gives it weight.
Its natural place is a row of three over a kitchen island, each glowing column lighting its own stretch of countertop, and it is slim enough that three or more never crowd the ceiling. Along a home bar or a restaurant counter, a line of them reads like candles. One alone suits a kitchen corner or narrow hallway. It goes with oak countertops, white tile, dark green cabinets and brass faucets.
Travertine stone, 25 cm for a low line over a bar or 35 cm for a taller column over an island, warm white light. Each tube has its own cracks and pores, so three in a row are three slightly different lamps. Porous stone: no sprays, wet cloths or acidic cleaners, just a soft brush or dry cloth. Keep it out of a stovetop's line, since grease settles into the pores, and fit it with both hands; stone chips.

Why it earns its place
Light through the stone
The light escapes through the natural cracks and pores of the travertine as well as the open bottom, so the tube glows from inside.
Two lengths
25 cm keeps a low line over a bar counter; 35 cm gives a taller column over an island with more ceiling height.
Made for a run
Slim enough to hang three or more in a row over an island or along a bar without crowding the ceiling.

In your home
A run of three over a kitchen island is the obvious use, with the tubes spaced evenly so each glowing column lights its stretch of worktop. Along a bar counter, at home or in a restaurant, a line of them works like a row of candles. One alone suits a corner of the kitchen or a narrow hallway. Travertine sits well with oak worktops, white tile, dark green cabinets and brass taps.
The light is warm white. Through the stone it shows as a faint glow; through the open bottom it lands on the counter, which is the part you cook or drink by.
Materials and quality
The tube is natural travertine, and here the stone's flaws are the feature: the cracks and pores that a polished stone would hide are what let the light out. Every tube has its own pattern of them, so a row of three is three slightly different lamps. Stone gives it weight and a surface that does not look like an imitation. What you get is a solid piece of travertine with the light inside it.
Care and everyday use
Travertine is porous, so no sprays, no wet cloths and no acidic cleaners, all of which mark natural stone. Dust with a soft brush or dry cloth. Over an island keep it out of the direct line of a hob, since grease will settle into the pores. Fit it with both hands; stone chips if it knocks a hard edge.
Good to know
Does the light really come through the stone?
Yes, through the natural cracks and pores. The main light still comes from the open bottom; the glow through the stone is the softer part.
Which length for an island?
25 cm if the ceiling is standard or the run is long; 35 cm if you have height and want a taller column of stone.
How many do I need for an island?
Three in a row suits most islands, spaced evenly along the worktop. A long bar takes more.
