The Barrel Pendant Light from Old School Electric is a celebration of classic British lighting aesthetics, reimagined with elegant simplicity. Its tiered opal glass shade evokes early-20th-century design, bringing sculptural interest and a soft, flattering glow to both contemporary and traditional interiors. Whether suspended above a dining table, clustered in a hallway, or used as a single jewel in a bedroom, the Barrel Pendant invites you to imagine warm, atmospheric spaces defined by its quiet, architectural form.
Designed in the UK by Mark Holloway, the Barrel Pendant sits comfortably within the Old School Electric lighting family, providing a thoughtful, compact profile suited to both small and large rooms. The opal glass shade measures 19cm in height and 15cm in diameter, delivering a glow that diffuses evenly without glare — ideal for intimate task lighting or broader ambient use.
Available in eight considered finishes — Antique Brass, Light Antique Brass, Dark Bronze, Matt Black, Satin Brass, Polished Brass, Polished Nickel and Polished Chrome — the fixture can be tailored to blend seamlessly with your existing interiors. Each pendant is supplied with a 1m twisted fabric cable and matching ceiling rose, ensuring consistency from top to bottom.
The design takes a standard E27 bulb and is fully dimmable, allowing you to adjust the ambiance to suit the moment. The Barrel Pendant adds structure and detail without overwhelming a scheme. Hung alone, it offers a refined focal point; in multiples, it creates rhythm and balance, particularly over kitchen islands, tables, or in generous hallways.
Combinations with other Old School Electric pendants can provide a cohesive yet characterful lighting strategy across the home.
