Sorbet is a coloured glass pendant light named for its soft, edible palette: burnt orange, milk white and pale cream, the colours of something cold on a warm afternoon. It is a cheerful fitting without being a loud one, and it suits a kitchen that could use some warmth without a full redecoration. The shape stays simple so that the colour does all the work. That is the whole brief, carried out properly.
The glass is tinted right through rather than surface-coated, so the shade holds its colour whether the lamp is switched on or off and will not scuff or fade at the rim over time. Switched on, the tint warms the light itself rather than merely the fitting: the orange throws a honeyed glow across a worktop, the cream stays gentle and neutral through the evening, and the milk white gives the cleanest and brightest spread of the three for a room that needs the output.
Hang one over a breakfast bar, or three in a row along an island in a single colour for a disciplined run. Mixing two colours across a longer table works too, as long as you keep the bulbs identical so the difference reads as deliberate.
