Do you remember–I’m going to need you to dig way back to a high school lit class here–when Odysseus stumbles upon the land of the lotus eaters in The Odyssey? If you’re a little foggy, basically the people that lived there got Odysseus’ men hooked on their psychedelic lotus plants and they never wanted to leave.
I happen to think that hanging a lotus chandelier, or adding a lotus base lamp in your home might have the same effect. At one point Jamie Drake offered a pendant (which Sara Gilbane hung in a trio in the dining room above), but sadly it has been discontinued. 1st Dibs has quite a few vintage stunners but that wow factor is going to cost you a pretty penny.
If you love the look, Pottery Barn (unexpectedly) offers a great option. I’d nix the shade for something with a little more pizazz. Hot pink or glossy black maybe? What do you think, would you eat the lotus?
Wow!! The PB one has definitely got the look! So surprising, honestly! Love all of these.
Fun look! Agree PB’s shade needs to go!
I would over eat the lotus – fabulous!
Gorgeous, I love them in groups of 3

I love these! They are so feminine and sweet. Can’t believe that lamp is from PB. It looks like an antique minus the shade.
I know, right? Way to go PB!
These are perfectly fun and gorgeous!! xo
Those hanging lotus flowers are ABSOLUTELY gorgeous!!!
Love these lamps! I have the table top in my living room, and I used one for a client’s dining room chandelier a couple of years ago. The gilded brass finish is classic too!
Would totally go lotus! Thanks for the original content Lindsay, it is always refreshing when new fresh ideas pop up in my feed!!
