The Chaumont 190 Pendant Light from DCW Editions carries the same rounded, sculptural character as...The Chaumont 190 Pendant Light from DCW Editions carries the same rounded, sculptural character as the smaller version, though with a stronger presence in the room. The larger proportions allow the form to feel more grounded, giving the pendant a quieter sense of weight once suspended. The light diffuses evenly through the surface, creating a broad and comfortable glow that feels soft rather than directional. The expanded scale changes the atmosphere slightly, allowing the pendant to shape the surrounding space more noticeably while still maintaining a calm, understated feel. Placed above a dining table, within a living area or hung lower in an open interior, it creates a warm focal point without relying on excess detail. More atmospheric than decorative, it settles into the room through light and proportion. DCW éditions Pendant Silver Metal. Dimensions: Ø 19 x H 28 cm - Ceiling rose: Ø 9 cm - Cable: L 300 cm max..
