I love that idea Beth. Gold for sure, if you can get wires there. 2 or 3 could work.

I'd love two gooseneck sconces, but I don't think I can get my contractor to re-do the wiring. He'd have to paint the entire kitchen ceiling to patch up that hole, and this project already took way too long. @Beth H. : The cabinets are Ikea Sektion with Torhamn doors, painted in Advance paint in BM Sea Star. The narrow vertical door was custom made.

@Beth H. : What do you think of a slightly larger, semi-flushmount schoolhouse, like the one I linked to?

I don't think I want any more blue/green colors in the light fixture.

These are some others I like:

If you do metal shade I would repeat hardware finish.

Maria- feel compelled to weigh in here. Whatever you do, please do not go with a clear glass globe. They always look dusty/cloudy. I put one in last year in our upstairs hallway (not a kitchen) and almost immediately regretted it. BTW, love your kitchen!

I LOVE that one that Beth H. posted up above - the one right after the comment

"Actually, this would be great over OP's sink."

I think those would be perfect, of course you'd have to have it rewired, but that would be SO worth it. I see no reason why the entire ceiling would have to be repainted. Do you not have the paint color that was used? I have patched holes and repainted - it's pretty simple.

hmm...........I feel like going the same color as the cabinets is too matchy matchy, I also feel lik a single pendant would be the statement I would make. I can see a schoolhouse pendant for sure, but not too huge as the cabinets are the centerpiece here. I would do polished nickel, not brass with a milk glass schoolhouse black stripe. you could do open bottom if you want more light down as this is a working area.I thnk three lights is getting carried away, simple farmhouse kitchen, you already have a lot of beauty in here, the light should be a silhouette to that.

Also, avoid clear glass here, aesthetically its nice but functionally its not.

maria, patching and painting the hole isn't a bid deal. you don't have to repaint the entire ceiling. But it is a bit more work to run the wires down into the wall. would take a few hours. maybe down the road if you want a change you can do it then. I just think the sconces would be beautiful on the full window.

and if you feel the color is too matchy, they have them in white or metal or black or other colors.

I do like that 3rd copper patina one. don't know if that rustic industrial look ties into anything else in the room.

Flo posted some nice metal options too.

I also like any of the schoolhouse options.

not feelin it lol. I think the milk glass would look good with the white counters.

Can we possibly see the other side of the room?

I like the white glass one two photos up ^. It is a nice light filled space, and the lower and metal pendants seem to obtrude more than enhance.

A compromise is a open gold lantern style light. This is great size and price.

Opps

following

@Flo Mangan Im actually looking for something a bit less traditional and a little more bohemian. Curves/softer edges are a must.

Here are a couple more shots of that corner of the kitchen.

@RL Relocation LLC This is the other side of the kitchen (taken a few weeks ago).

Here are some more I just found:

maria, those are all nice

here's a little boho one

If you want to go more boho, I think a semi flush would be better than a pendant. I will say the gold doesnt seem to really pick up on the cabinet pull ( i see they are brass) I do think nickel would be a better choice. https://www.potterybarn.com/products/capiz-petal-flower-mount-ceiling-fixture/?catalogId=84&sku=875542&cm_ven=PLA&cm_cat=Google&cm_pla=Lighting%20%3E%20Flush%20Mounts&cm_ite=875542&gclid=CjwKCAiAjrXxBRAPEiwAiM3DQigO4wxDK4QBPh0ksawHbe9jJvc8WHlkTWKMVZKuxHOuty9C1V8ThBoC8mIQAvD_BwE

@RL Relocation LLC I was considering capiz shell, actually. I kinda like it.

And here's a more traditional brass pendant. And a smaller brass schoolhouse light.

(I love nickel, but the faucets are chrome and I don't want too many different metal finishes.)

ok polished nickel is what i meant to say..........

I think your last schoolhouse one is pretty great with your cabinets etc. simple but with some spunk!

https://www.hvlgroup.com/Products/Category/Pendant

maria, tons of capiz shell

That one's interesting.

I think my top contenders right now are the brass/white schoolhouse, the capiz shell, the two cb2 options, and any of the west elm.

How do you clean cap is he'll fixtures? My kitchen gets greasy after awhile even using the vent.

Another interesting one: https://www.wayfair.com/lighting/pdp/george-oliver-nowak-3-light-sputnik-modern-linear-chandelier-w000612222.html

Good question @john3582 I thought I'd just be able to dust the capiz shells, but you may be right about the grease. Though I do have a pretty powerful vent.

I really like the west elm ribbed milk glass. It suits the style of the kitchen overall, but the ribbed glass has its own interest. I also like the shape of the last schoolhouse light, but wonder if it is a bit too small.

I also just noticed that the wiring is positioned 12 inches from the wall, but my counters are almost 30 inches deep. So it's not centered over the sink depth-wise. Argh.

So then ( and I always kinda felt this way) dont do a pendant, semi flush or creative flush mount. dont stress about that too much, most people will not notice its not centered to depth when they glance at it and when you are standing over the sink very hard to be looking up at the light.

It doesn't matter that the wiring is not centered depth-wise over the sink. Not even a teeny tiny bit. Stop worrying.

don't worry about the depth. you don't want to hit your head or hands on it when doing dishes. Plus, you have the garden window there which gives some visual depth. try hanging it first and see how you like it.

if it looks off to you, it's super easy to move forward a few more inches. not a big deal.

Having it set back more toward the rear is actually a better place for the light with the bay window, I think.

I love the look and function of articulating wall mount lights. It goes with your aesthetic and you have the perfect window height for it. There are many styles to choose from. Here is one option.

Just got this from my email feed.

oh that last one is nice

Currently decided on this one. (I'm waiting for it to go on sale before purchasing.)

sweet my black stripe won lol.

@RL Relocation LLC Yes, but actually the tan stripe with chrome.

either way I think that will look simple and still catch your eye can't wait to see it installed.

blue bubble glass would look nice peaking just past the top of window. Or something more linear, like this melted ice led pendant I found recently at Costco for a great price.
