The Victorians preferred glass light shades not only to show off the latest luxury (electricity!) but also because of thrift -- gas flame fixtures could be converted to electric and their glass shades repurposed -- reducing waste and frivolous spending. With an eye to modernizing those classic designs, this pendant has been designed to be equally as versatile, while remining easy on the wallet. We love seeing a row of pendants lining a hallway, a trio over a kitchen island, or even an individual in a dark nook. Some classic ideas never go out of style.
