Benson Reef Black Pendant

To preserve the "industrial rustic" black finish and the integrity of the natural fibers, our care experts recommend regular dusting with a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment. Because rattan is a natural material, avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or excessive moisture, which can damage the fibers over time.

Yes. This fixture features a maximum height of 95 inches, making it an excellent choice for grand entryways, foyers, or living rooms with vaulted ceilings. The generous cord length allows it to hang at the proper visual level in high-ceiling environments. For standard 8-foot or 9-foot ceilings, a professional electrician can easily adjust the cord during installation to your desired height.

With a 19-inch diameter, this pendant is ideally scaled for use as a primary light source over a small-to-medium dining table (approximately 42 to 48 inches wide) or as part of a linear series over a kitchen island. For larger islands, we recommend spacing two or three of these fixtures roughly 30 inches apart to create a balanced, professional look that provides both functional light and visual rhythm.

This fixture is designed to provide "layered" lighting. While the open bottom allows for direct task lighting on surfaces below, the natural rattan weave filters light through the sides of the shade. This creates a soft, ambient "warm glow" and casts intricate shadow patterns on the walls, adding texture and a cozy atmosphere to industrial or rustic interiors.

While the natural rattan material offers a beautiful organic texture often found in coastal designs, this fixture is intended for dry, indoor use. In coastal regions or humid climates, we recommend ensuring the room is well-ventilated. Proper airflow helps protect the natural rattan fibers from moisture absorption, ensuring the fixture maintains its shape and black finish for years to come.

Because this is a hardwired pendant light intended to be a permanent centerpiece in your home, professional installation by a licensed electrician is highly recommended. This ensures that the mounting is secure—especially when utilizing the full 95-inch drop—and that the electrical connections meet local safety codes.
