Porch pendant light

As my new user name suggests, I am at the point of decision fatigue with my ongoing house renovation.

Yes, a first world, lovely problem. I know. Hence why I've name changed. It's been a looooong nearly 2 years.

Has anyone seen a glass pendant light suitable for use in a covered porch (so IP44 rated). I've got my heart set on a large, upturned wine glass style that I saw on a house when we were on holiday. I actually knocked on their door but the owners said it was there when they bought the house. They insisted on getting step ladders out to check for any identifying marks/hints much to my families embarrassment. Nothing though.

I'm at the point where I cannot see the wood for the trees and can't find anything.

I don't like lantern style, and I would like it to be fairly large. Pendant style.

Thank you in advance!

mine were from John Lewis

@LemonEagle that's similar enough to what I have in mind.

When I say porch, it's a tiled roof with brick pillars - so not an enclosed 'room'. The electrician was very clear it needed to be IP44 but I appreciate you responding. Thank you.

@bloodyeffinnora JL is where literally all my other lights have come from and there's nothing on there at the moment which is a shame.

I've had mine a good few years now though so probably no longer stocked.

We got these from a bathroom company so properly rated for use in "wet" areas. Would they do?

But as a general idea, have a look in bathroom stores first ideas.

memo to self: really must clean them Blush

This looks like your description and is IP44 rated.

I'd forgotten how expensive the pair of lights we got were Shock although maybe they weren't quite so expensive from your supplier and it was 3 years ago Wink

They're great, but I think too small. I'm starting to wonder if I imagined the perfect light when we were away!!

thanks for the acknowledgement.
IP23 is totally fine for an exposed porch by the way.
