Drums, Drums and More Drums

The latest lighting trend seems to be drum style pendants and chandeliers surrounded by drum shades.  There are hundreds to choose from and the choices can be almost intoxicating!  There are drum shades in fabric, glass, acrylic and metal.  They range is design from clean and simple to stunning to eye-popping conversational art that can only be described as amazing!  With the move towards "going green" there are also a lot of new designs featuring organic materials embedded in the shade material such as ferns, wheat grass and even coffee beans!  There are drums made up of glass cylinders inserted in a metal ring, there are drums made from weaving materials together into a pattern and there are drums with a filigree laser cut pattern on a metal or fabric shade which seem to be the most popular choice at the moment.  One of the coolest designs I have seen is the "Jellyfish" by Cyan Design - this stunning fixture is available in a variety of colors and features multiple waving glass arms flowing in all directions that are surrounded by a fabric drum shade (the link is below) - these are just too cool for words to describe!  With the multitude of options to choose from, there is a drum pendant or chandelier to suit any style you have in mind!
