Which light fitting for dining room?

Page 1 of 1
I'm trying to decide on a light fitting for our dining table in our open plan area.

We have 3 of these pendants over the kitchen island, it's matt black on the outside and shiny hammered silver on the inside:



I want one large light fitting for over the dining table.

Current options are:

Sky Garden (90cm):


Spiro (80cm):


Alfresco (60cm):


We're favouring the Spiro but wondering if it would look odd, even though it's still black and matches the kitchen pendants in that respect. Also a bit worried that the last one would be too matchy-matchy, and it might be a bit small.

Opinions appreciated!
Last one if it were bigger. Depends on budget. There was one I liked but not sure of the price. cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0782/3703/products/Large-Dome-Pendant_light_large.JPG?v=1433499430

I have to admit, I find the last one to be a bit... lack-lustre, and I would probably be disappointed every time I looked at it. The one in your link is nice and big, but a bit too rustic for my style


Ok ok i am home now and found the one I liked the most.

check this one......
Oh yes, I remember you mentioning that one before but it totally slipped my mind! Thanks for reminding me. I like it much better than the Alfresco.

I like the Sky Garden best
Thanks for the vote Adele!

Sky Garden from me also.....

Thanks Michelle! I like the relief on the sky garden but hubby's not so sure.
Do you think the Spiro would look terribly out of place?
I actually like the spiro. Same colours but makes a statement over the dining table. I don't think you want them matching but instead to compliment. I still can't decide on either as well. By this has given me some ideas. Thank you.


I really like these for my kitchen bench but can't fin anything I like to match over the dining table. All one room as well.



Thanks caelae! Plenty of glass chandeliers out there, I like this one: http://www.mattblatt.com.au/Pendants/Replica-Achille-Castiglioni-Fucsia-12-Pendant.aspx?p4031c12
Thanks trixee. They are quite nice. Hadn't thought of something like that. Good luck choosing!


Spiro first, then Sky garden!
I depends also on your wall colours I reckon, if it more on the creamer side the stark white of sky garden might be too much. The Spiro has that home feel to
It.

Do those bulbs on the clear one cost a fortune and/or more expensive to run?


Relatively in expensive, they cost around $15 ea. Not to bad for a nice looking bulb?

Spiro looks like a dust collector....
