Project: Kitchen Refresh | Lighting Option #1

OK, so I've started sourcing for my little Kitchen Refresh project and have the first lighting option for us to mull over together today. It is truly classic - a bit formal, sophisticated and more than a little bit glamorous in a refined and restrained sort of way.

I found the Cole Polished Nickel + Glass Rod Pendant at LampsPlus for less than I could find it anywhere else. A good place to start. I even found an image of it installed in a creamy kitchen so you could get an idea of how it might look!

I love the jewelry-like quality of the chain links and the warmth of the polished nickel. It really does feel like the kind of light fixture that cries out for a pair topiaries flanking the sink, doesn't it? Perhaps also an "upgraded" tea + coffee service to something like this dashing duo:

{spheres tea pot}

{tintin coffee pot}

And maybe a canister or two like this one from One King's Lane?

 
I'm thinking this fixture might point things in a direction that is a bit formal for me. I love the sophistication but am wavering on scale and price point {my kitchen is not as large nor as glamorous as the one above}, so I'm going to follow up with another option next week. I must admit that I'm already dreaming up other applications for this Cole Pendant if I don't choose it for the kitchen. It is a whole lot of pretty in one little pendant... Decisions, decisions.
