Kitchen pendant lighting has become rather popular over the years. While the conventional ceiling lighting has its own tradition and practice with its own set of advantages, using pendant lighting for kitchen also has its own benefits. The decor of good-looking pendant lighting is practically unbeatable, and it lets one focus on certain objects rather than spreading the lights everywhere.

While installing kitchen pendant lighting, you would want to ensure that you install them at the right height. Placing them too high would lose the great focus that pendant lights are capable of producing, and placing them too low would obstruct your movements as well as potentially dazzle your eyes. You need to strike the right balance between the two. The convention that tends to work the best is to fit the kitchen lighting around three to three-and-a-half feet above the table tops and islands. This gives just about the right brightness. Since the tables would lie directly below the pendants, people would not walk through those places and as a result free movement of your family members will not be obstructed.

These pendant shades usually completely enclose the bulb although in the last decade, hat shaped or funnel shaped shades that are open at the end and that can be adjusted in height using adjustable wires are becoming quite common (especially as kitchen lighting fixtures in condominiums.) You often see them suspended in a row over a kitchen island in newly designed buildings or hanging high from a twenty-foot ceiling in a hallway.

You will find that most of the pendant lights hang by a rod or chain. They have their own distinct lengths and the multiple pendant lighting fixtures of staggering heights offer an interesting and unworldly divine glow in an otherwise ordinary room. So, if you want your house to appear breathtakingly beautiful, what are you waiting for? Get yourself a set of inverted pendant lights and see your rooms shine beautifully.
