Iron pendant light in gold leaf 56x16cm Quebec - Hudson Valley Lighting

The Quebec chandelier combines an iron structure with a hand-woven abaca fibre lampshade. The contrast between the slender frame and the plant-based material gives the whole a calm presence, somewhere between craftsmanship and contemporary design.

Its low, wide silhouette casts a soft light, filtered through the natural weave. Four light sources set beneath the shade illuminate a table or kitchen island without glare, tracing an irregular play of shadows across the floor that is unique to woven fibres.

Hung from a chain, it can be adjusted in height to suit the proportions of the room, above a dining table, in an entrance hall or in a bedroom. It works equally well in understated interiors and in warmer settings, where the natural material softens strict lines.
