I can't comment on the size of the light fixtures for the peninsula, but I do like your choice. In my kitchen I have 3 different kinds of light fixtures - one over the table, another one over the kitchen sink and then 2 the same over one window and the back door. Pot lights elsewhere. Personally I like the different fixtures - not too matchy matchy - but maybe it is not for everyone. They all have something in common though - the metal in them is antique brass.

Do you have pendants over your kitchen island/peninsula? May we see what they look like? Post a pic.

Hi crystal, We'd vote for oil-rubbed bronze. On that note, our sister brand Luxe Light and Home has this fixture could work in this set up: Fiammi Chandelier Or maybe even this one, the Gio Medici Chandelier: These are sold exclusively through the Kravet showrooms so we strongly encourage you to visit one near you so you can the quality and workmanship yourself. We hope this information will help you make a more informed decision on your home needs.

I love all these ideas! And Beth I love how you photoshopped the fixture into my kitchen pic! That is really brilliant! You all are giving me some courage and hope! I was really worried I’d blown it by going to bold with the pendants over the island since my kitchen table is so close in proximity to island. So I think what I’m hearing and seeing is ok to go with different style as long as there’s some element that ties in with island pendants - like shape or finish. I kind of like the idea of tying into the round shape of metal rings that frame bottom of pendant shades. I think the contemporary round fixture with fabric shade fits that theme with the ring of metal surrounding top and bottom of shade. Also the clear glass pendant has similar metal rings on it. I really like the blue fixtures as well. Do you all agree that I should keep diameter of fixture on the small side since things in my kitchen are so close to one another? You guys are the best!
