These lights suspend from the ceiling by chain or cord and feature a shapely shade that directs brightness where you want it most. They are a great way to add opulence and drama to your interior space and are also practical in producing good lighting. Knowing about the different types of pendant lights that are available will help inform your decision with a solution that meets all your home needs.
Linear pendant lights
A linear pendant light features one long tube bulb mounted on a single overhang. Often used over kitchen islands, countertops or dining tables. They are usually larger, providing a good deal of light around the area where they are placed. They can act as a real conversation piece, so they are also great around communal areas where people often gather and catch up.
Multi-light pendants
These are the type of lights that consist of several light sources on pieces attached to a central base hanging from your ceiling. They consist of more than one light source, making them perfect for lighting large spaces. They also have shades or bare bulbs to help you set the mood with ambient or bright lighting.

Glass pendant lights
Creativity takes centre stage with the glass pendant light. The glass itself can be designed in many styles, from tinted to clear to stained and textured glasses, all adding visual effects. Glass pendents are a great way to enhance any atmosphere with just the use of lights. You can hang them individually or in groups to capture dimensions of depth. The glass also allows for a strong and bright source of light, allowing you to fill a reasonable space, making it a good practical choice for larger rooms.
Chandelier pendant lights
Possibly the most common or famous pendant light on this list. Chandeliers are decorative, elaborate, big and showy. They sometimes feature different light branches installed and hanging on the ceiling. Chandeliers are show-stoppers. Incredibly ornate with a dazzle of light, offering opulence in your space. You can use them in entryways with high ceilings or over your dining table in a large dining room.
