The shades on the Piero 36-Light Multi-Drop Pendant may appear to be woven from a natural plant material, but they are made of iron in a white finish to make it one of our offerings that illustrates the skills our craftspeople bring to their work. When the white pendants are illuminated, textural patterns will enliven surrounding surfaces. The canopy of this piece is luminous in a painted Contemporary Silver finish that includes some subtle gold undertones. All multi-drop fixtures arrive unassembled. A licensed electrician skilled with hanging fixture assembly and installation should be consulted to plan and perform installation. The thin aircraft cable used for suspending shades arrives in a 10' coil. Cable variances are determined by you and the installer. Installer will cut cable lengths, link shades to cables, and install fixture.
