After going through the list, it`s time to choose your favourites – we bet there are at least three designs that you would love to have in your home.
1. The Wise One Pendant Light
Latvian designers from mammalampa used the hollow core of a tree stump to create this stunning pendant lamp:” bored by plastic, we yearn for living beauty.

7. The Copper Shade Pendant
Tom Dixon 's Copper Shade Pendant elegantly disperses an intimate light, creating a romantic atmosphere. The technology used to create this beautiful light is at least interesting: “ the Copper Shade is created by exploding a thin layer of pure metal onto the internal surface of a polycarbonate globe. The result is a highly reflective surface with a warm metallic glow. ”
8. The Iguazu Neon System
The name of this pendant light, Ignazu, comes from the Ignazu Waterfalls on the borders of Brazil and Argentina which are harnessed by man to produce natural electricity. The Pendant light is made from cold neon light, giving you the possibility to touch it and reposition it. Designed by Iris Design Studio , the circular light is both beautiful and modern.

An amazing light uses its design to capture a visual moment of explosion.

Different colour combinations complement its unique shape: black/copper, black/pink or white/copper.
10. The Metallic Twig Pendant Light
This next Metallic Twig Pendant Light from Designlush you`ve already seen on Freshome .It`s so beautifully designed to imitate nature, that it needs to be seen again and again.

11. Celsius Lamp

14.The Dragonfly .MGX Pendant Light
This is a succulent design coming from designers Jan Wertel and Gernot Oberfell fromPlatform Studio . Made in Epoxy and produced with 3D printing technology, the Dragonfly imitates the curved honeycomb structure of insect eyes. For it to give a beautiful light and thus be more than a pretty thing hanging from the ceiling, the structure is closed on the upper cells and gradually opens up towards the lower part.
15. The Alma Light Stone Pendant
With an eccentric shape the Alma Light Stone Pendant is designed by Joseph Novell and Joseph Puig. Clearly a modern light, this pendant has a white Epoxy finish and it can be suspended up to 2 meters in height. The cables are adjustable with an auto blocking system, so aside from having a form that reminds us of natural pebbles, this pendant is also highly adjustable.
16. Carved Pendant Light
Another gorgeous and playful pendant light featured on Freshome some time ago, this pendant light is part of the Romantica collection from ALT Lucialternative. It has messages carved all over the lower part of its elegant, long shell. Italian words mark the continuation of an era in which words look best where you can see them.

Its futuristic shape allows for the Joker pendant light to be successfully displayed in a modern home, especially because of its open form and sculptural body. There are many colours available: black, blue, green, orange, purple, petrol blue, white, red and yellow.
18. The La Paz Pendant Light
Showcasing a strong connection to the Edison bulb, the La Paz Pendant Light from Iris Design Studio is a beautiful representation of chaos in an artistic and beautiful manner: “The wonder of the piece is expressed in the way that diverse elements combine to create something that is, at its core, as old as the industrial revolution, but depicted here in a new, astonishing form. ”
19. Emily Pendant Light
Daniel Becker `s Emily light gathers a set of five slightly different shapes into a creation that will shine light on any chosen surface. Five organically shaped metal shields contrast with the elegant timber frame. Made from sheets of painted steel, Emily hangs on an oak frame that insures its modernity along with the slim cables hanging from the ceiling.
20.The Crack Bowl LightKorean design artist Kwon Jae Min created a unique pendant light made from thin sheets of locally-sourced wood. He thinks that “ Object is the metaphor of that time. ” Fissures that run along the pendant light give it an exotic apperance and accentuates the expert wood craftsmanship.
21. The Moonjelly Pendant
Made from a strong combination of rubber, paper and metal frames, the Moonjelly Pendant Light is a sustainable lamp that has at least 50% of the paper in its structure coming from sustainable forest management. A shoji like structure keeps this lamp sturdy, but modern technology makes it immune to normal changes in humidity in the home.

25. The Void Pendant Light
This light comes from Tom Dixon `s exploration of the reflective metal form. Solid sheets of spun metal are pressed to form a double wall shade that shine and reflect light at the same time. The series of pendant lights remind us of the Olympic medals. It is available in three finishes – brass, copper and stainless steel.
26. Shade Pendant Light
Atlanta-based designer Christopher Moulder conceived this aircraft-aluminium pendant light with a unique design: “ Inspired by the seemingly overworked and simple lamp shade, Shade brings new life to an iconic form with a formal appearance reminiscent of a water drop splash.”
27. Scheisse Pendant Light
Imitating a shattered lamp, the Scheisse Pendant Light from Scandinavian firmNorthernlighting is a steel reminiscence of a former light bulb shape. This seems to have exploded in order to offer more light and an interesting design. Random shapes and wires were fused together to create a chaotic moment in time captured by the designers.
28. The Octo Pendant Lamp
Secto Design are the ones who concentrated on wood and opened their minds to creating shapes and objects that would be a perfect fit in a modern home.

29.Ta-rae Pendant lamps
Design Virus created these cute pendant lights composed of ten “Seoul colours” and gave them a Korean name: “ Ta-rae is a word in Korean that represents bunched up and lumped threads or strings.” A thimble acts like the on-and-off switch – a creative way to completely design a functional object with a familiar shape.
30.Vessel Pendant Lamps
The last light in our list of 30 pendant lights is actually a set of three glass pendant lights gathered together under the name The Vessel Series. Samuel Wilkinson came up with this design that has been nominated for a British design award.
