The Thaxted is a small mid century pendant: a straight sided drum of glossy olive glass with a domed wine red cap sitting on top like a lid. The two colours have the warmth of a 1960s kitchen, and the olive glass turns a deeper, richer green once the light is on.

The drum is 15 cm wide and 10 cm deep and open underneath, so light falls down onto a worktop, table or bedside while the glass glows softly around it. It is a small pendant, so it looks best in a pair over a table, a row of three over an island, or hung low beside a bed.

It stands about 16 cm tall overall and hangs from a black cord of up to 190 cm that can be shortened at fitting. It takes one E27 bulb, which is not included, and it is a hardwired fitting for standard UK mains.

    The lamps look really nice. Everyone who has seen them so far says they are the prettiest in the whole house :) We ordered ceiling lamps in the same style from this set. In warm light, the olive color is really beautiful!

    Very good quality, I recommend it. The lamp is made of glass and everything matches the description.

Three olive Thaxted pendant lights with wine red caps lit in a row in an oak kitchen

A row in the kitchen

Three small drums hung in a row give a kitchen a warm, even light and a run of colour that carries the eye across the room.

Low beside the bed

Hung low over a bedside table, the open drum sends light down onto your book while the olive glass glows softly.

Glossy glass, red cap

The olive glass is smooth and glossy, and the domed wine red cap adds a bold note of colour above it.

Chosen for the finish

We choose each design for how its surface handles light: natural travertine, brushed brass, aged bronze or ribbed glass. The finish is part of the design, not an afterthought.

Built for real rooms

We design for homes that get lived in, not showrooms that get photographed. Warm, unobtrusive light. A scale that suits an ordinary ceiling. Finishes that age rather than wear out.

Frequently asked questions

How big is it?

It is a small pendant. The glass drum is 15 cm wide and 10 cm deep, about 16 cm tall overall. A few buyers found it smaller than they expected, so it looks best in a pair over a table, a row of three over an island, or alone beside a bed.

Is a bulb included?

No, plan on one E27 bulb. A warm white LED bulb of around 2700K suits the olive glass, and a dimmable bulb lets you lower the light in the evening if you have a compatible dimmer switch.

How high should it hang?

Over a table or island, hang the bottom of the drum about 75 cm above the surface. Beside a bed, about 50 to 60 cm above the bedside table. Where people walk under it, keep at least 210 cm of clear headroom.
