Description
Our Yarvelle pendant light is a cluster of clear glass teardrops, each lit from inside by a slim chrome tube and hung on its own fine cable, all gathered to a single point on the ceiling. The metalwork is iron with a chrome finish, which catches the light and keeps the whole piece bright and crisp against the glass. It measures 80cm across with a drop of 170cm, a generous cloud of glass for the space beneath it. The light source is G4, and the light itself is a warm white at 2700K, the soft tone of an evening lamp, with a colour rendering of CRI 80+, so wood, fabric and faces look natural under it.
With that width and drop, this is a pendant for a room with real ceiling height. We like it best over a dining table, where the teardrops gather into one bright centrepiece above the meal, and it sits just as well in a living room or hallway with a high ceiling. It is rated IP20, so it is for dry rooms only. It is not dimmable, so it suits a standard switch rather than a dimmer; for a softer mood late in the evening, let lamps around the room take over. It suits anyone who wants glass and light to do the work in a modern or pared-back interior.
Each shade is clear glass, so the light passes straight through and the chrome tube inside each teardrop becomes part of the design, while the iron metalwork shares the same chrome finish. It is a mains fitting, so it is for a qualified electrician to install. To set it off, keep the table beneath it simple and let a plain wall behind show off the outline of the glass; a round table echoes its circular spread beautifully.
