Design & Materials
The capsule-shaped top is polished aluminum alloy finished in Gold, Black, or White — keeping weight low (ceiling mount-friendly) and price accessible. The opal-glass globe below is hand-blown. Aluminum gives the capsule a sharp, smooth mirror polish that holds its finish over time without the chipping risk of glazed ceramic.
Cluster 3-5 Capsule Globe Pendants at varying heights for dining tables, kitchen islands, or stairwells. Mix sizes for visual rhythm.

Good to Know
Which size of Capsule Globe Pendant Light fits my room?
Size XS (∅5.9"): bedside pin spot, vanity, narrow hallway, console accent. Size S (∅7.9"): breakfast nook, kitchen island single drop, small foyer, bathroom vanity flanking. Size M (∅9.8"): standard dining table, larger kitchen island, foyer focal point, bedroom main light. Size L (∅11.8"): larger dining tables, two-story foyer, hotel reception, living room statement. For long surfaces (dining tables, kitchen islands 60"+, bar counters), hang 3-5 units of mixed sizes spaced 24-30 inches apart.
Is the Capsule Globe Pendant Light made from ceramic?
No — the capsule top is polished aluminum alloy finished in Gold, Black, or White, not glazed ceramic. The opal-matte glass globe diffuser below is hand-blown. Aluminum holds its mirror polish longer than glazed ceramic and reduces overall fixture weight, making it safe for any standard ceiling junction box. For sustained finish quality, dust the capsule weekly with a soft microfiber cloth — avoid abrasive cleaners.
Gold, Black, or White — which capsule finish should I pick?
Gold: mirror-polish warm gold — pairs with wood floors, leather, terracotta, classic and warm contemporary interiors, hospitality. Black: high-gloss black — pairs with white walls, marble, stone, contemporary minimalist or Japandi rooms. White: soft matte white — disappears into white ceilings, ideal for Scandinavian minimal interiors and rooms where you want the opal globe to be the focal point.
What bulb does the Capsule Globe Pendant Light use, and is it dimmable?
E26 (US/CA) or E27 (EU/AU) base. Recommended: 6-9W LED at Warm White 2700K, globe shape (G25). The opal-matte glass diffuses the bulb completely, so any frosted or smooth-glass LED works — avoid clear filament-style LEDs (the filament shape ghosts through the opal). Dimmable when paired with dimmable E26/E27 LED bulbs and a compatible TRIAC or trailing-edge wall dimmer.
Can I install the Capsule Globe Pendant Light in a bathroom or covered porch?
It is rated for indoor dry locations only. Safe on a bathroom vanity wall away from direct shower spray and standing water, but should not be installed inside a shower enclosure, directly above a tub, on a covered porch, screened patio, or any outdoor area. For wet bathroom or outdoor areas, choose a wet- or damp-location pendant.
