The shade of the Palatino 1-Light Multi-Drop Pendant gives the impression it is its own complete universe replete with its own Milky Way. Made of two layers of glassthe interior white and the exterior bluethe shade shimmers with Mica dust that is tossed onto the surface of the molten glass, which is twisted to achieve the swirls that mimic the wonders of the night sky. The surface glimmers even when the lights are switched off. The canopies of the glass pendants in this collection are luminous in a painted silver finish.
