Mini Pendant Light Applications & Features

• Mini pendant lights can simultaneously provide general lighting, task lighting, and decorative lighting over a breakfast bar, a kitchen island, a small kitchen table, bar areas, restaurant tables, small end tables, and even bedroom night stands. In short, mini pendant lights provide a living space with both functional lighting and a sense of style.
• Equipped with shades or globes to avoid glare, mini pendant lights can also be suspended from the ceiling over dinette tables, game tables, kitchen counters, or other work areas.
• When used over end tables or night tables, mini pendant lights free up the space occupied by table lamps.
• When used in groupings, mini pendant lights can be used very effectively in great rooms, foyers, and dining rooms, offering a modern and often cheaper alternative to chandeliers.
• Most home builders, architects, and interior designers love to use mini pendant lights because they offer good lighting while at the same time creating a very attractive atmosphere with a stylish flair to a living space.
• Mini pendant lights come in an almost unlimited range of styles such as casual, contemporary, art deco, eclectic, modern, transitional, traditional, mission, Tiffany, country, and Victorian.
• Pegasus offers an extensive selection of mini pendant lights that are unobtrusive with an understated beauty that will give you lots of design options.
• Most pendant lights are dimmable (except fluorescent) and the use of a dimmer reduces energy costs, increases the life of the light bulb, and gives you the flexibility to vary the amount of light to suit the occasion.
• Pendant lighting from Pegasus is available with dimmable incandescent, low voltage halogen, line voltage halogen, low voltage xenon, and energy-saving compact fluorescent light sources.
• One great advantage of a mini pendant light fixture is that the cord length can be adjusted to suit your specific needs. Obviously, the glass shades of the pendant lights should not block your vision under normal circumstances.
• In general, pendants should be hung about 30 inches above the tabletop and be at least 6 inches narrower than the table on each side.
• An important consideration in buying a mini pendant light is to purchase one that is sized correctly for the space where it will hang. For example, a room that has a low ceiling should not use pendant lights with large glass shades. Likewise, if the room is large, very tiny pendant lights may look “lost” or go unnoticed in that space.
• Pendant lights have a rich history dating back to 2700 B.C. The Greeks were especially fond of burning animal fat in hanging lamps of clay. The Romans encased oil lamps in hanging bronze fixtures in the first century A.D. In the third century, glass added a new aesthetic appeal to the delicate hanging accessories. Today, a complete mini pendant light usually consists of a glass shade, a canopy and cord, and the appropriate light bulb.
