Besa Lighting Venus 17in 1-Light Pendant | Industrial Bronze and Beige Cardboard Shade | Kitchen Island & Dining Room | Model 1JT-VENUS-LED-BR

A 17-inch wide industrial LED pendant with a layered cardboard shade in beige and a brushed bronze finish, ideal for modern kitchens and dining areas.

The Venus pendant from Besa Lighting brings an urban, gritty aesthetic to contemporary interiors. Its shade is composed of intricately cut layers of tan corrugated cardboard, each precisely sized and positioned to create a visually appealing, broadly radiused form. A white acrylic bottom shield conceals the lamping, while the cord pendant fixture includes a 10-foot SVT cordset and a low-profile flat monopoint canopy. The brushed bronze finish adds a warm, industrial touch.

Best for

• Kitchen islands and dining rooms, hung in multiples for a striking linear arrangement
• Living rooms and open-plan spaces needing a sculptural accent light
• Coffee shops, restaurants, or loft apartments with modern or industrial decor
• Areas with 8-foot or higher ceilings, using the 10-foot cord for adjustable hanging

Not ideal for

• Bathrooms or covered outdoor areas - this fixture is rated for dry locations only
• Spaces with very low ceilings where the pendant's 7.5-inch height and hanging hardware may be intrusive

How bright is it?

This pendant emits 800 lumens - roughly equivalent to a 60-watt incandescent bulb. It provides comfortable ambient light for a kitchen island or dining table, but may not be sufficient as the sole light source for a large room.

Light color and feel

The included LED bulb produces 3000K warm white light - a soft, golden tone similar to traditional incandescent bulbs. With a CRI of 90, it renders colors accurately, making it suitable for spaces where you want to showcase decor or artwork. The fixture is dimmable, allowing you to adjust the mood.

Sizing and fit

The pendant measures 17.75 inches wide and 7.5 inches high. The canopy is 5 inches square and 0.62 inches high. The 10-foot cord provides flexibility for hanging at your desired height. Ideal for kitchen islands or dining tables in rooms with standard or higher ceilings.
