Dining room lights for any style and budget

Posted on 25th July 2023

Lighting can make or break a scheme. So, if you’ve been looking to switch up your dining room a notch, why not start with the illumination?

The latest dining room light fixtures are available in an array of sizes and shapes, to cater to any style and budget. From textured shades, made out of natural materials, to pretty pleats and smoked glass, there’s plenty to choose from.

The lights you pick will depend on the size of your dining set-up. If you’ve got a compact space with enough room for just a bistro set, then a single pendant will do. However, if you love hosting and have an extendable table with lots of chairs at the ready for the next party, then a mix of ceiling light shades – or even a grand chandelier – is a better option.

Rise and fall pendants are great if you’ve got a multi-functional dining table where you not only eat but also help your little ones with homework. Some solutions are dimmable, so you can adjust the brightness and create a cosy atmosphere in the evening. Remember to look for lights that suit your lifestyle, too, not just aesthetic preferences.

Then, when it comes to style, rattan is still one of the most popular materials, so we had to include some beautiful and tactile shades. Plus, these pendants are ideal for achieving a Scandi-inspired look or a modern, rustic scheme. And, we also round up statement steel-framed and metallic pendants, perfect for an industrial-style statement.
