Travertine Stick Pendant Light

Real yellow travertine — hand-cut from solid stone, not composite or veneer. Each cylinder weighs noticeably more than it looks (stone has density that imitations don't), and the natural pitting on the surface is genuine geological pitting, not surface-printed texture.

One G9 LED at 4–6W produces about 400–600 lumens — enough for accent lighting on a counter or a single point of focus, but not enough for primary room lighting. For a kitchen island, plan 2–3 pendants in a row. For a dining table, 1 above each seat or 2–3 along the length. For ambient lighting, layer with overhead recessed.

Above a small bar table or single seat — one pendant is enough. Above a 6-ft kitchen island — 2 in a row at 24" spacing. Above an 8-ft island — 3 at 24" spacing. In a 2-story stairwell — cluster 5–7 at varying drop heights (24"–60" apart vertically) for a sculptural composition. Hang each at the same diameter so the cluster reads as one piece.

Significant — that's the point of natural stone. Each travertine cylinder will have its own pattern of pits, color banding (from honey to warm caramel), and surface texture. If you're ordering multiple, request "matched set" at checkout and we'll pick pieces with similar tonality, though no two will be identical. Embrace the variation as part of the aesthetic.

Brush dust off with a soft natural-bristle brush (a clean shaving brush or paint brush works well). Avoid wet cloths — travertine is porous and can absorb moisture and staining. For deeper cleaning, use a stone-safe pH-neutral cleaner sparingly. Never use vinegar, lemon juice, or acidic cleaners — they will etch the stone surface.
