Dining Room Lighting

Dining room lighting revolves around one centerpiece: the table. It's where you eat, talk and share, so it needs warm, well-centered, glare-free light. At GreenIce you'll find pendant lamps, ceiling lights and decorative bulbs to create a cozy dining room with personality.

Fixtures that work in a dining room

Pendant lamps over the table

They are the key piece. You can choose from several styles:

  • Wood, wicker and rattan: add warmth and a natural or Scandinavian feel, with models that cast decorative shadows on the ceiling.
  • Metal: industrial or modern shades in white, black or metallic finishes.
  • Plaster, concrete and stone: pieces with simple lines for contemporary interiors.

Decorative ceiling lights

If the ceiling is low or the dining area is part of a living room, a decorative LED ceiling light provides the general lighting. Many models let you adjust the light tone with a remote control.

Filament bulbs

In lamps where the bulb is on display, vintage LED filament bulbs add a warm, retro touch.

Keys to lighting the dining room

  • Lamp height: as a guide, hang the lamp 70 to 80 cm above the table to light it without getting in diners' line of sight.
  • Size and number: over long tables, two or three pendants in a row spread light better than a single lamp.
  • Supporting light: a wall light or floor lamp in a corner keeps the rest of the room from being left in the dark.

How to choose the lighting for your dining room

Color temperature

Between 2700 K and 3000 K: warm light enhances food and creates a relaxed atmosphere.

Dimming

Being able to lower the brightness while lingering at the table after a meal makes all the difference. Combine lamps with dimmable bulbs or ceiling lights with a remote.

Light direction

Closed shades focus light on the table; open or perforated shades also light up the ceiling and surroundings.

Style

Choose materials that complement your furniture: wood with wood, black metal with industrial chairs, and so on.

Explore all our pendant lamps, our wood, wicker and rattan models and our decorative LED ceiling lights. At GreenIce you get fast shipping, a 3-year warranty on GreenIce products and advice on choosing the right lighting for your dining room.
