Orbet 9-Light Stacked Glass Orb Pendant by Sean Lavin for Visual Comfort
$749.00
/
Orbet 9-Light is a strand of glowing milk glass pearls, banded in fine metal.
The Design Story
Sean Lavin drew Orbet from a classic pearl necklace.
Each orb glows on its own, so the strand reads as a column of soft lights.
Why You'll Love It
Mix 5-, 9- and 13-light lengths for a cluster that looks custom.
Made for Real Life
There are no bulbs to change: the LED is built in. Polish the glass now and then with a soft microfiber cloth. The brass is a living finish that deepens with age. Dust the frame with a dry cloth. The cord can be cut on site to the exact drop you want. Pair it with an LED-compatible ELV or TRIAC dimmer to go from bright to candle-soft.

In a stairwell, over an island or a bar, or beside a bed. Explore the family: Orbet 5-Light and Orbet 13-Light.
Sizing & Installation
A pendant looks right when the spacing and drop are planned. For the Orbet 9-Light:
| Pendants per island | 6 ft: 3 · 8 ft: 4 · 10 ft: 4 |
|---|---|
| Height over a counter | 30–36″ to the bottom of the shade |
| Dining table | group two or three along the table |
| 8 ft ceiling | too low for a counter install |
| 9 ft ceiling | drop 36–42″ |
| 10 ft ceiling | drop 48–54″ |
| Cord | up to 168.9″ overall |
| Hallways and entries | 7 ft or more underneath |
| Ceiling | slopes up to 45° |
Numbers assume a standard 36″ counter (our math). It is hardwired, so book a licensed electrician.

Questions We Hear Most
What is the idea behind the Orbet 9-Light?
Sean Lavin designed it so that it is a strand of glowing milk glass pearls, banded in fine metal. It belongs to Visual Comfort's Orbet family, which comes in several sizes and versions.
Which Orbet 9-Light finish works with my palette?
Our take: black gives a crisp, graphic outline; brass brings warmth to wood and earthy tones; nickel feels bright and luminous.
Can the Orbet 9-Light be the only light in the room?
It is designed as mood lighting (783 lumens), so pair it with lamps or recessed lights for tasks.
Is the Orbet 9-Light the right size for my space?
At 2.8″ wide it works alone over a small table or nightstand, or in a row of 4 over an 8-foot island.
Will the Orbet 9-Light work outside under a roof?
Yes. Visual Comfort rates it for damp interiors and outdoor spaces under cover, so a loggia or covered patio is fine; keep it out of direct rain.
Will I ever change a bulb in the Orbet 9-Light?
There are no bulbs. The light comes from built-in LED modules rated for 50,000 hours, installed at the factory.
How is the Orbet 9-Light hung?
It is cord suspended; in the box: 12 feet of field-cuttable cord. Sloped ceilings up to 45°. A licensed electrician should install it.
How soon can the Orbet 9-Light arrive?
All the versions we offer are in stock right now, and in-stock pieces usually leave within 2–3 business days.
