Verdant is a planter pendant light with a glass bowl suspended directly beneath the bulb: a small terrarium that happens to be lit from above. Most planter fittings put the greenery beside the light and hope the two get along. Putting the bowl underneath solves that properly, because the plant gets light from the direction it actually wants it. The arrangement itself is the whole design, and nothing else was needed.
The glass vessel is sized for succulents, air plants, moss or a few cuttings rooting in water, which covers almost everything a room can keep alive without much attention. Because the bulb sits above the bowl rather than off to one side, whatever you plant stays evenly lit and remains visible from below through the glass, so the fitting looks composed from every angle in the room. It is the rare light that gets more interesting the longer you own it rather than less.
Keep the planting light and free-draining, and water it sparingly so that nothing ever sits wet against the glass for long. Hang it over a kitchen table, a bathroom basin or a desk, somewhere it will be seen from close up and the planting inside it can actually be appreciated.
