Overview of the Bell Cage 2-Light Island Pendant
Designed by Bruno Marashlian, this Bell Cage pendant light embodies traditional style with a robust industrial edge, making it a standout fixture for kitchens and dining areas. Measuring 10 inches in height, 21 inches in width, and 5 inches in length, it offers substantial presence without overwhelming the space. The fixture’s dual-light design provides a combined lumen output of 220 lumens, delivering efficient illumination suitable for island or linear lighting applications.
Construction and Materials
Crafted from a durable combination of brass, glass, and steel, the pendant showcases a small bell-shaped glass shade finished in matte white, which softly diffuses light to create a warm, inviting ambiance. The solid brass components include 180-degree adjustable swivels with internal teeth that lock at 5-degree intervals for precise positioning, complemented by a 90-degree hang straight swivel that accommodates sloped ceilings. This versatility ensures optimal installation on flat or vaulted surfaces.
Installation and Compatibility
The pendant comes with 10 feet of wire and includes one 6-inch and two 12-inch stems, allowing for customizable hanging height. Additional stems in 3, 6, and 12 inches are available separately to further tailor the fixture’s drop length. It supports a maximum of 100 watts per socket and is compatible with incandescent, LED, fluorescent, and halogen bulbs, providing flexibility in lamping choices. The fixture is UL/CUL damp rated, making it suitable for use in environments with some moisture exposure.
Lighting Performance and Features
Equipped with two sockets, this pendant delivers balanced illumination ideal for task lighting over kitchen islands or billiard tables. The dimmable feature allows users to adjust light levels to suit various moods and activities. The traditional bell shape combined with an industrial finish harmonizes vintage and urban farmhouse aesthetics, aligning with restoration and mid-century design trends.
