George Kovacs was a pioneer in contemporary lighting, known for creating upscale yet approachable fixtures with clean lines and a healthy dose of humor. The Pontil collection is a perfect example of Kovacs style, offering lights that look sleek yet soft, cool but comfortable. Named after the glassmaking tool, this Pontil island pendant features eight rods tipped with curved shades that look like molten glass being blown. The arrangement of the rods and the central orb give the fixture Sputnik appeal and a fun, funky look that complements a variety of decors. Hang it from flat or sloped ceilings over a kitchen island, dining table, pool table or bar. George Kovacs Lighting began as a contemporary lighting boutique in Manhattan. Since then, George Kovacs has maintained its status as a leader in the world of lighting. By being dedicated to creating forward-thinking contemporary lighting, George Kovacs has created a loyal following! Featuring modern lighting made of a variety of luxury materials, George Kovacs designs are sleek, creative studies in functional modernism, made complete by a spark of playfulness.
