Mossera Cove Black Pendant

Yes, we strongly recommend professional installation by a licensed electrician. This pendant is a hardwired fixture that must be properly connected to your home's electrical system and securely mounted to a ceiling junction box to ensure safety and long-term stability, especially given the high-quality metal and glass construction.

With a 7-inch diameter, this pendant is ideally scaled for grouping in sets of two or three over a standard kitchen island. To ensure a balanced look and optimal task lighting, our design experts generally recommend spacing pendants approximately 30 inches apart (center-to-center) and hanging them roughly 30 to 36 inches above the countertop surface.

This fixture is designed for indoor use. While its durable metal frame and glass shade are resilient, it is best suited for dry areas like kitchens, dining rooms, or entryways. For bathrooms or covered outdoor spaces in humid or coastal climates, we recommend verifying if your specific installation site requires a damp-rated fixture to prevent long-term moisture-related wear on the electrical components.

The clear hammered glass shade on this pendant offers a distinct aesthetic advantage by adding texture and a "hand-crafted" feel to your space. Functionally, the hammered texture helps to gently diffuse the light from the included 60-watt Edison bulb, reducing direct glare while creating a charming, shimmering effect on surrounding surfaces that standard smooth glass cannot achieve.

The included 60-watt decorative Edison bulb is designed to enhance the transitional character of the fixture. It produces a warm, amber-toned glow that emphasizes ambiance and vintage charm. This makes it an excellent choice for creating a cozy, inviting atmosphere in social areas like a breakfast nook or bar.

To preserve the beauty of the black bronze finish and clear glass, we recommend regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth. For a deeper clean, our care guides suggest using a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Always avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive pads, as these can strip the protective finish from the metal or dull the clarity of the hammered glass.
