The Piece
Vintage Jute Pendant Light with Pressed Glass Shade, c. 1970s
Description
A sculptural hanging pendant wrapped in hand-knotted jute, layered over a geometric pressed glass shade. When lit, it casts soft, patterned light—warm, textured, and just a little dramatic.
Natural fiber meets cut glass. Organic and structured in the same breath.
Details
- Hand-knotted jute over metal frame
- Pressed glass interior diffuser
- Hanging chain with pull cord
- Single bulb socket
- c. 1960s–1970s
Condition
Light wear to jute with natural aging and minor fray. Glass is intact. Fully functional.
Why It Works
It does more than light a room.
→ Adds texture without clutter
→ Creates ambient, flattering light
→ Feels collected, not decorated
This is the kind of piece that makes everything around it look more intentional.
Where It Lives Best
Originally designed for indoor use.
Perfect for:
- living rooms
- bedrooms
- reading corners
- covered patios or sunrooms (protected from moisture)
Every piece is packed with professional-grade materials: multiple foam layers, double-boxing, directional and fragile handling labels. For large furniture we use custom timber crating. We photograph packing before dispatch and can provide images on request.
White-glove delivery is complimentary within 100 miles of Reno, NV. National shipping quotes provided at checkout. All shipments are photographed and documented. Damage claims must be filed with the carrier; we provide all documentation needed to support your claim.

All antique and vintage items are sold as described and all sales are final. Each listing includes detailed condition notes and photographs so you can make a fully informed decision. We encourage buyers to ask questions — about condition, dimensions, finish, provenance — before purchasing.
Antiques are irreplaceable and one-of-a-kind. Carrier handling is outside our control once a piece has left our facility, and major carriers including FedEx do not insure antiques. We do everything within our power to ensure safe transit, but cannot accept liability for carrier damage. If damage occurs in transit, we will provide full documentation to support your carrier claim.
