Nova Stretch Pendant

Stretch Pendant is a pendant light that hangs from the ceiling and lights a table, island or entry from above.

The light is 1500 lumens of 2700K warm light, and the bulb is in the box. It dims from a elv dimmer on the not included. 15 finish combinations let you tune it to the palette you already have.

The Design Story

Nova has been making lamps since 1923. In the 1950s and 60s its designer Peter Morelli turned the arc lamp into an American living-room staple, and the brand still works from that same idea: good light, honest materials, a shape you notice.

Why You’ll Love It

It reads as furniture, not hardware. Built from steel and linen, it has the weight a thin fixture lacks. It measures 9 in tall, 22 in wide, and 22 in deep, so the scale is easy to plan around. The light is warm and even: 1500 lumens of 2700K warm light, CRI 95+, so wood, fabric and skin tones look right. Choose your finish: shade in avocado, burlap, black, cashmere gray, mustard, turquoise, white, and crimson red; body finish in satin nickel and weathered brass.

Made for Real Life

Day to day it is easy. This is a ceiling fixture; if household wiring is not your thing, book a licensed electrician to hang it. Dust it with a dry cloth, keep harsh cleaners away, and use a dimmable, flicker-free LED if you dim it, as Nova recommends.

LED vs. Incandescent

A bulb’s brightness is its lumen count, and its wattage is only the electricity it uses. Here that means 1500 lumens from a 14W LED, the same punch as an old 100W incandescent, without the heat. Incandescents read a touch warmer and softer, but they run hot and burn out faster. Switching later is easy: keep the same base, and choose a dimmable, flicker-free LED rated 2700K.

Putting It Together

Expect to do a little final assembly when it arrives. The instructions are packed in the box; ask us if you want a look at them first.

Details and Dimensions

Where It Shines

It looks best over a dining table, above a kitchen island, or in an entry or stairwell. It is not the right pick for anyone who cannot add a ceiling fixture, since it must be hardwired by a qualified electrician or hung from a compatible canopy.

Why We Love It
