Trend alert: Dome Pendant Lamps

I am fascinated by the latest trend in lighting - cozy dome-shaped lamps, big and small, like this Avico Suspension Lamp by FontanaArte, that create the impression that you are under a safe shelter, uniting everyone under its light. 

or this Toldbod Glass Pendant

Nur 1618 Suspension by Artemide

Designed to mimic the nature of sunlight, the Artemide Nur 1618 Suspension provides bright, direct downlight with subtle indirect lighting emanating through sanded glass at the top. An eye-catcher over the breakfast bar or near a wall. Features a large dome-shaped shade of spun aluminum.

 
And here is another  Dome Pendant Lamp


Caravaggio Pendant by Lightyears - Named for the Italian Baroque painter regarded for his contrast of light and shadow, the Caravaggio Pendant by Lightyears provides concentrated downlight while the open-top steel shade softly casts an ambient upward glow. A high-gloss lacquer coating adds a contemporary feel to the flared bell-jar silhouette. Adjustable suspension, four size options and three color variations offer remarkable versatility.

For the eco-friendly of us and also those looking for a more afordable lighting, my suggestion are these
 Recycled Wine Bottle Hanging Lights - they are equally cozy and inviting.
