Authentic Cloth-Cord Pendants

Simple designs = humble origins? Not always true. In fact, by the early 1890s, cloth-cord pendants were considered cutting edge for their ability to showcase the beauty of new carbon-filament bulbs - a talent these fixtures continue to display to brilliant effect. Innovative when introduced. Plainly beautiful today.
