Triple pendant light

Any recomendations for high quality triple pendant lights to go over a breakfast table? They all look good in the photos but want something that lasts well. Traditional house. Was thinking maybe the pooky one or one from Jim Lawrence? Other ideas?

Other good places to look for lighting:
Holloways of Ludlow
Houseof
Original BTC
Dowsing&Reynolds
And a more pocket friendly option: LaRedoute

We have some from Jim Lawrence, they are good quality but chose a glass shade which was, in hindsight, a stupid decision in a kitchen.

Pooky or Jim Lawrence

If price isn't an issue, go for British made. You'll pay a premium, but it's worth it for quality and style. When we renovated, I chose British made lights from David Hunt Lighting* *, and I’ve never regretted it. They’re beautifully made, with real attention to detail and solid materials that feel a world apart from the generic imports you see everywhere. Beyond how lovely they look, I love knowing they were crafted by skilled British makers knowing that if anything ever goes wrong or there's an accidental breakage, I'm safe in the knowledge that spare parts will be readily available. https://www.universal-lighting.co.uk/products/david-hunt-stowe-solid-brass-3-light-pendant-bar-smoked-glass-shades/

Some excellent alternative suggestions! Thank you so much- it’s hard to know what is genuinely good quality from google alone so personal recommendations are hugely appreciated. Also food for thought in glass shades in kitchen.

Honestly, if you like the look of glass then go for it. They just have to be cleaned weekly with glass cleaner and a cloth. And I found that they don't look perfect unless you take the shade down and thoroughly wash them with hot soapy water - but maybe that's just my terrible cleaning skills! I only do this sporadically as it is frankly a pain.

I have a Pooky one. The quality is really good (electrician was impressed) and we got the prismatic glass shades which are possibly a bit more forgiving (in terms of cleaning) than a smoother finish.

Have to say our glass ones in the kitchen are fine, I only wipe them once a month with a glass cloth. Definitely would recommend dimmer switches and opal glass if possible, for over a table. Have had Pooky and Jim Lawrence lights, Jim Lawrence were better quality in my opinion. I also like House Doctor lights, and found some great solid brass and opal lights on Etsy, which they’ll make to your exact drop needed over tables or other furniture. More expensive, I think £300 ish, but look really good
