Material Quality & Durability
Terrazzo—a composite of marble, granite, quartz, and cement—is celebrated in both residential and commercial design for its durability and timeless appeal. The Cemento fixture honors this heritage while offering contemporary visual language. The wood accents are carefully selected for warmth and longevity, resisting warping while developing natural patina over time.

This hardwired pendant light requires professional installation or handy DIY skills. The adjustable 59-inch cord accommodates various ceiling heights—simply trim to desired length during installation. Sloped ceiling compatibility (up to 30°) makes it suitable for attic bedrooms, cathedral ceilings, and vaulted architectural features. Dimmer switch compatibility allows mood-adjustable lighting without additional fixtures.
Whether you’re refreshing a single bedroom corner or reimagining an entire kitchen lighting scheme, the Cemento Terrazzo Pendant Light brings sophisticated material consciousness and design intention to modern interiors.
