Set of Three Clear Glass Pendants with Black Finish and Adjustable Cords

The LIGHTEXP clear glass three-pack is a set of matching glass pendants with black hardware for homeowners lighting a kitchen island, corridor, or bar counter who want the bulb on show rather than hidden behind a diffuser. Clear glass keeps sightlines open, so three fixtures in a row light the work surface without sectioning off the room.

Each cord adjusts to 47.2 inches using the tightening caps at the canopy, and each shade takes one E26 bulb up to 60W. Bulbs are not included, and the open bottom makes changing them a one-handed job.

Design Story

Clear glass is the most honest shade material, and the most demanding. It puts the bulb on display, so the lamp becomes part of the design, but it also means output is undiminished by a diffuser. For a kitchen or a bar, that trade is worth making: you get the full light of the bulb and a fixture that does not visually close off the space.

The cord adjustment is the detail that separates this set from cheaper glass pendants. Length is set by unscrewing the three tightening caps and drawing the cord through the canopy, so the drop can be corrected after the fixture is up, and nothing is cut. Three different heights in one room are therefore possible from a single box.

Black hardware against clear glass is a pairing that works in farmhouse, industrial, and rustic rooms because the hardware gives the fixture an outline without adding a colour. The open base serves a purpose beyond styling: a bulb can be screwed in from below, which matters when three fixtures are mounted over a counter that is difficult to reach around. LIGHTEXP specifies a maximum cord of 47.2 inches, which covers standard and slightly raised ceilings.

Where It Works Best

Kitchen island, three at matching heights. Set all three cords to the same length and hang them 30–34 inches above the counter, spaced evenly along the run. Clear glass with a visible filament bulb gives an industrial reading; the same fixture with a frosted LED lamp is quieter and more contemporary, which is the advantage of choosing your own bulbs. Black hardware ties into cabinet pulls, a black tap, or a range hood trim. Spacing and drop figures for islands are covered in the Lighting Design Guides.

Corridor or entryway with staggered drops. Because the cord adjusts at the canopy rather than being cut, the three can be set to different lengths in the same run, which suits a stairwell or a hallway where the ceiling steps. Keep the lowest shade at least 7 feet above the floor. Clear glass keeps a narrow corridor feeling open in a way opaque shades do not, and the black hardware repeats at regular intervals to give the space a rhythm. Corridor and entry schemes are shown throughout the Design Inspiration & Ideas pages.

Basement bar, game room, or a breakfast counter. Run the cords short so the shades sit close to the ceiling over a bar top, giving each seat its own pool of light without putting glass at head height. Filament bulbs on a dimmer are the obvious pairing here, since the bulbs are visible and the atmosphere is the point. Glass is also easy to keep clean in a room where cooking or serving happens. For a finish that carries into other rooms, the Full Lighting Collection includes further black and glass pieces. Fix the first drop, then match the other two to it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much work is installation, and what tools do I need?

Each pendant hardwires to a ceiling junction box and ships with mounting hardware and instructions. Have a screwdriver, a ladder, and wire connectors ready, and bring in a licensed electrician if you prefer one to make the connections. The cord is shortened by loosening the tightening cap at the canopy and drawing the cord through, so no cutting is involved and the drop can be revised later.

What bulbs are needed, and will they dim?

Three E26 base bulbs are required, up to 60W each, in incandescent, LED, CFL, or halogen; bulbs are not included. The fixture is compatible with a dimmer when it is fitted with dimmable bulbs and used with a dimmer switch, and neither is supplied. Filament-style bulbs suit the clear glass; frosted lamps will cut glare if the fixture hangs near eye level.

What size are they, and how should I plan the layout?

Shade dimensions are not published for this model, so plan from the cord: each drop adjusts to a maximum of 47.2 inches (3.93 feet), which suits standard ceilings up to roughly 11 feet depending on where you want the shade to sit. Three fixtures cover an island or counter of about 5 to 8 feet. Allow 30–34 inches above a worktop and 7 feet of clearance in a walkway.

How do I clean the glass shades?

Turn off the power and let the bulbs cool, then wipe the glass with a microfibre cloth, using glass cleaner sprayed onto the cloth rather than the shade so liquid cannot run into the socket. Dry with a second lint-free cloth to prevent spotting, and dust the black hardware with a dry cloth only. The open base makes the inside of the shade reachable without disassembly.

When will the set ship, and how is it packed?

Orders are processed within 3–5 business days, and standard delivery takes 7–15 business days with tracking provided. The three glass shades ship in protective foam-in-box packaging, each seated in its own cut-out with cords coiled and hardware bagged separately so glass does not contact glass in transit.

What are the returns and warranty terms?

Returns are accepted within 30 days on unused items in original packaging; the fixtures are sold as a set and are returned as a set. The 24-month warranty covers structural components and the light module, including the glass shades, cords, canopies, and socket assemblies, against manufacturing defects under normal residential use.
