Burma Trail Black Pendant

This is a hardwired pendant light designed for a permanent, seamless look without exposed cords. Due to the electrical complexity of a 5-light system and the precision required for mounting a linear fixture of this size, professional installation by a licensed electrician is strongly recommended. This ensures the unit is securely anchored and properly integrated into your home's electrical system for long-term safety and performance.

Because this pendant is constructed from durable metal rather than glass, it is exceptionally well-suited for the kitchen, as it won't show the streaks or water spots common with glass shades. Based on our material care expertise, we recommend dusting the fixture regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For kitchen grease or buildup, a cloth slightly dampened with mild soap and water is effective; however, avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners to preserve the integrity of the sleek black finish.

Measuring approximately 45 inches in width, this linear pendant is engineered to provide substantial visual and light coverage for standard 6-to-8-foot kitchen islands. A professional design tip for island lighting is to select a fixture that is about two-thirds the length of the surface it hangs over; this ensures the lighting feels balanced without overwhelming the space. Its slim 3.5-inch depth also makes it an excellent choice for narrower islands or breakfast bars where you want to maintain clear sightlines.

Yes, this fixture is highly functional for kitchens because it features five directional cylinder shades. Unlike traditional chandeliers that diffuse light in all directions, this design allows you to pivot and angle each shade toward specific work zones—such as a sink or a cutting board—for high-intensity task lighting. This targeted approach minimizes shadows and provides the focused clarity needed for safe and efficient meal prep.

Absolutely. In open-concept homes or modern lofts, a linear pendant serves as a vital architectural anchor, helping to "zone" the dining or kitchen area within a larger room. The minimalist cylinder shape and matte black finish offer a sophisticated, contemporary aesthetic that easily coordinates with a variety of furniture styles, from industrial-inspired stools to transitional dining sets.
