Kitchen Island and coordinating kitchen table lighting

2 years ago

last modified: 2 years ago

Hi, I would appreciate any help you can give...We are loving this pendant light for over the kitchen island (thinking 3) but, need help finding something to coordinate for over my kitchen table. the canopy and cord are called gun metal and the globe is described as coffee ombre. Your suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

You'd need to see it in person, and/or take a piece of it along to a lighting shop -- probably either oil-rubbed bronze or black finishes would coordinate, but I can't tell which is closer from this photo.

None of these is exactly right -- it's a tricky light to match, so you will probably have to come up with something that just echoes something about the pendant while going in a different direction.

If the fixture isn't part of a collection such that you can buy different variations on a theme easily, I find it's best to at least stay with the same manufacturer so that the finishes match. "Gun metal" and "coffee ombre" are going to mean different things to different manufacturers and in fact may not exist with other makers. But if the fixtures are far enough away from each other that no one can really make a direct comparison you can get close but not match and no one will notice. I think @acm has provided you with some good options that are thinking outside the box a bit.

Thank you. I tried to post this 3 times before I thought it actually went through and I did ask the question of a fixture that would go well over my table, but I guess it didn't stick. Also, do you know who sells those fixtures that I show in the pic, which I found on Pinterest? I can't find them anywhere.

Kitchen table fixture to coordinate with island pendants(??)
Q

smallish island...close to table? I am not getting a feel for anything happening style wise with these combinations. I might skip a pendant if it is a small island. Focus on the table then......with canned lights on dimmers above island....do you have some nice detail on the island ? you can dim the cans in the evening for atmosphere. the one table fixture is especially colonial..the other especially Italian. The pendants seem "schoolhouse" vibe. I don't know how you would blend from these selections. I would focus on table area: you may find it easier to find the right selection, without worrying about island area....then go back and see if something crops up by chance for the island, when you look from a different perspective. [it probably will pop out]

I wouldl not repeat the shape, you could touch on the pattern. Elk lighting has a beautiful one but its 900$, I found a couple here that could work. https://www.ferguson.com/product/progress-lighting-ashbury-21-12-in-60w-3-light-linear-chandelier-in-silver-ridge-pp4349134/_/R-4468628 https://www.overstock.com/Lighting-Ceiling-Fans/Capital-Lighting-Donny-Osmond-Mercer-Collection-6-light-Winter-Gold-Chandelier/15997149/product.html https://www.homedepot.com/p/Minka-Lavery-West-Liberty-5-Light-Olympus-Gold-Chandelier-4404-581/206407333 https://www.lightology.com/index.php?module=prod_detail&prod_id=659189&option_id=659197&utm_content=32096/4&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIgLfxnfP06AIVcz2tBh3yDgrqEAQYBSABEgLv1_D_BwE
