Whare 1-Light Burnished Brass Medium Pendant

Overall, this fixtures is beautiful. The chain has some weight to it and feels strong. In addition, you can use the chain to swag the fixture to a center point if you wiring is not centered. The pounded brass is subtle and provides a nice texture when the light shines off of it. I Would have given the fixture 5 stars if it weren't for the instructions. The instructions are relatively high level and its hard to identify which wire is the live wire (black) and which one is the natural wire (white), as both are clear. Even the instruction reference a white and black wire that aren't there.

Great single light. The finish is simple yet elegant with the gold and cream colors. Matches most decor and brings that added pop to room. Decent amount of light considering single bulb fixture. Looking forward to testing different bulb styles and finding best fit for room. Finish had no blemishes and packaged with care. Adjustable length chain. Overall very pleased with this fixture.

I love this light. I especially like the chunky chain. It's larger and more round than normal light chains. The pounded brass look is nice but what I like most about these kinds of lights with the chains is... if your ceiling fixture is in the wrong place, (like mine is. It's not centered over where I sit my table.) you can drape your light like a swag light if you leave the full length of chain, and position it where it's needed. The bonus is how pretty this light is and the inside of the light is white which reflects and brightens beautifully .

I ordered the Whare 1-Light Burnished Brass Medium Pendant because my Interior Decorator (wife) has decided to change the decor in the family room and adjacent hallways. She is on a gold tone/brass accents binge. Actually I quite like the new look. The Whare pendant is 15” in diameter and 10” (or so) high with a subtle hammered finish. In my opinion this fixture is well made with excellent fit and finish offering high end look. I hung it from a 9’ - 6” high ceiling after removing 12” of chain and it stands out as the focal point in the room. It arrived in perfect shape in a heavy duty box that protected its content well in spite of a couple of substantial gouges in the cardboard. Installation was pretty easy - the entire process took about 45 minutes including removing the old fixture and cleanup. The only tools needed were a Phillips head screwdriver and a wire stripper. Be advised that no bulb is included. After a little experimentation we settled on a 100 watt equivalent dimmable Edison style 2800K warm white E26 bulb. The fixture looks great and best of all the Interior Decorator is happy!

As a professional in the construction and remodel industry, I recently incorporated the Generation Lighting Whare 1-Light Burnished Brass Medium Pendant into a project, and my experience with the fixture has been mixed. Here is an in-depth review based on various key aspects: The Whare series from Ellen DeGeneres showcases a great design with its hand-forged, hammered texture dome shape. The aesthetic appeal of this pendant is undeniable, blending modern coastal charm with a touch of refined elegance. The oversized shade with its reflective finish enhances the overall ambiance of the space, making it a focal point in any room. The pendant accommodates a single A19 Medium 75-watt light bulb, providing sufficient illumination. Its damp rating adds to its versatility, allowing it to be used in various settings, including kitchens and bathrooms. Installation was straightforward. The materials and design facilitated an easy setup process, which is a significant advantage for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. However, a point of concern is the burnished brass finish. The finish appears to be of lower quality than anticipated, especially given the fixture's price point. This aspect was somewhat disappointing as it does not align with the high expectations set by the design and brand reputation. The brushed brass, while aesthetically pleasing, lacks the premium feel one would expect from a product in this price range. Overall, the Generation Lighting Whare 1-Light Burnished Brass Medium Pendant offers a blend of modern coastal style and elegant craftsmanship. While the design and lighting quality are commendable, the perceived quality of the burnished brass finish falls short of expectations. For a fixture positioned at this price point, a higher quality finish would enhance its overall value and appeal. In conclusion, while the Whare pendant excels in design and functionality, there is room for improvement in the material quality. It remains a stylish and versatile addition to any interior space, but potential buyers should be aware of the finish quality relative to the cost.

Love the high quality design of this brass pendant light. The 60 inches of chain length was perfect for our higher ceilings to hang over our island. With the fixture width of 15 inches it feels large enough to just need one over a medium sized island. If your space is larger, possibly consider two to add more light. Installing was easy and the anchor is very sturdy.

Very well constructed with high-quality hardware. Always a little tricky with precisely measuring chained lighting and wiring, but the large chain was easy to thread and final placement provided a solid anchor and clean appearance. As a hand-crafted item, this is certainly a unique lighting choice which will limit it to certain placement options. The included chain is extremely long and could accommodate almost any height setting – as pictured, less than half the chain was used. If you’re looking for a hand-forged / hammered texture style, I’d recommend this product line.

It was huge and did give out much light at all. Sadly it went back. It is shiny silver and I was hoping for more of a brushed silver

Looks beautiful above my kitchen island!
