Pendant lights are the shining centrepiece of any room. At EGLO, we have a wide range of pendant lighting suitable for everyday use and our modern and unusual designs will undoubtedly add a unique touch of elegance to your home.
With EGLO, you can enhance the look of your home’s interior with our extensive and stunning range of pendant lights. From modern and sleek designs to timeless classics, we cater to various interior styles and preferences.
Copper pendant light
Are you looking for a polished surface light or perhaps a rustic vintage-inspired look? Many of our vintage-styled pendant lights feature copper finishes. Some of our copper pendants come in two colours: copper on the outside with white or black on the inside. Contrasting colours not only look great, but they also have a positive effect on your indoor lighting design, so your light is refracted and reflected. Depending on the inner finish of your pendant light, the illumination will appear either stronger or softer.
Glass can be designed and shaped in several ways. Discover different coatings or styles with our glass pendant lights, with each feature significantly changing the look. The current trend is to have an 'outer' glass light. For example, the light may have a clear glass shade over an inner copper shade. This enhances the retro feel and adds an attractive interior design centrepiece to your home.
Wood pendant light
Featuring timeless designs, wooden pendant lights offer a feeling of robustness and calmness in your home. Wood is one of the oldest raw materials on earth and is growing in popularity. In fact, the trend is evolving, which is why we like to incorporate wood in many of our lights and mix it with other materials, including concrete, metal, glass and fabric.
Spherical shape
Round does not always mean circular. Our pendant lights are characterised by different sizes, shapes and uses. With a stylish and elegant design, our spherical lights are timeless and can create a harmonious and uniform light. Before making a purchase, you should always consider where you intend to hang the light and how much space will be available.
Black pendant light
Black pendant lights are currently right on trend! Black is regarded as a classic colour and it can also be used as a bold statement for your indoor lighting design.
Tip: your interior lights can work well with rich cream or gold tones as they will emphasise the elegance of your black pendant light.
We also have many other modern hanging lights, including grey pendant lights. Browse through our range and be inspired!
LED pendant light
LED components offer innovative lighting technology for pendant lights, so the designs can be narrower with no need to worry about heat generation. Many LED lights can even be adjusted to your desired light colour, which means that a warm golden colour can be set to create a relaxing atmosphere at dinner. Alternatively, if you use your table for work, you could introduce a cool white tone to increase your concentration and productivity levels.
Three-light pendant
Our three-light pendant combines modern design with exceptional functionality. With a trio of elegantly suspended lights, this pendant will illuminate your space while adding a touch of contemporary style … perfect for modern home interiors!
Fabric pendant light
Our fabric pendant light effortlessly blends soft textures with understated sophistication. Crafted with a fabric shade that exudes warmth, it will cast a gentle and inviting glow in any room. The light’s minimalist design and fabric elements make it a versatile and elegant addition to diverse interior aesthetics, introducing a cosy and stylish focal point to your living spaces.
Dimmable pendant light
With the ability to adjust the brightness of your lights, you can create the perfect lighting setup to suit any mood. For example, you might want a bright light for dinner but a more subdued atmosphere during a cosy games night. Our dimmable pendant lights will allow you to adjust the brightness to your desired setting.

These lighting fixtures are built to withstand the elements while exuding a captivating radiance, creating a welcoming atmosphere for your porch, patio or garden. With various styles available, our outdoor range offers a seamless blend of durability and design, ensuring your home’s exterior is always beautifully illuminated.
The Best Location for a Pendant Light
A pendant light can be used in many ways. However, it is important to remember that as they hang down from the ceiling, height may be a deciding factor. If the light hangs freely in the room, the ceiling must be as high as possible. Otherwise, your new pendant light could become a safety risk.
Sometimes, there are rooms in your house that require specific design options. Large pendants, such as black hanging lights, look particularly stunning in a stairwell with high ceilings and wide stairs. Vintage-inspired designs are becoming more popular and often consist of only a socket, cable and canopy, which are mounted as groups in rooms with high ceilings.
Living room lighting
The living room is where you kick back and relax, and a soothing living room pendant light can help create a calm atmosphere. We often recommend an island of light in a living room, whereby the light only illuminates a specific area rather than the whole room. This type of lighting creates a calming effect similar to a fireplace.
You can enjoy a cosy atmosphere by choosing a light that does not illuminate in all directions. Pendant lighting emitting downward lighting works very well in this regard. The fixture should be mounted to ensure it won’t get in the way. We recommend placing it over a living room table.
Dining Room Lighting
It may sound strange, but food and light complement each other very well. Light is especially important over the dining room table, as food often looks even more delicious if it is brightly lit. Furthermore, feature lighting will enable you to create a sense of style for your dining area.
How high should the pendant lamp hang above the dining table? The 80:20 rule.
A pendant light should never dazzle, which is why height plays an integral role in the design of your space. If in doubt, you may need to consider a height-adjustable light. You can use 80cm +/- 20cm above the table as a guideline for positioning the light.
How can you adjust the height of a pendant light?
The easiest way to shorten the cable is to pull the light into the ceiling cover (also called the canopy). Depending on how much space there is, you can accommodate more or fewer cables. But be careful, as not all rise-and-fall pendant lights have this capability.
Never cut your pendant light’s cables or suspensions as this could put you in danger and your warranty will be invalid.
If you want to vary the height of your pendant lighting once it has been installed, we would recommend our rise-and-fall pendant lights.
