Hope this helps.

Thank you, VT, I think you might be onto a good idea.
I am on my iPad right now and I don't know how to link on this thing. My pendant lights are made by Quoizel and are online under the manufacturer. They are dark bronze with a very plain round canopy that measures 5.5 inches in diameter.
You are so right about those LED bulbs. That is what I am planning to use. I had not realized until last week that LEDs come in all kinds of designs now, beyond the squiggle. Turns out, I can get LED Edison bulbs, dimmable. The bulbs in these pendants are an intergal part of the design because they show through the glass shade. I was so happy to find how much is now available in LEDs. We use LEDs throughout the house in other lights.
