Where Do You See Our Products? Designer Rooms Like These!

 

This beautiful dining room was designed by Phoebe Howard. Our burlap chandelier takes center stage in this dining room and enhances the beauty of the furniture. See more information on this beauty below!

Rectangular Burlap Pendant - This unique rectangular shape has a wrought iron framework in black and then is covered in natural burlap. A rectangular shape with rounded ends gives a post industrial feel that is accentuated with a natural burlap fabric that is used as a diffuser. The black iron is a nice contrast to the burlap material. This chandelier styled pendant is open on the bottom for maximum light. The iron grill above the shade adds another design element to the fixture. The four chains connect to the canopy plate that connects to the ceiling. Size: 44" long x 20" deep from front to back, 17" high from bottom of shade to top of grill work. The four chains are 68" high. There are three lights at 60w maximum each for plenty of light. All of the three lights are covered with a glass shade inside the pendant. Matches our lights: C09091, C09093, C09092 and C09153.
