It is difficult to see the light close up in the photo The local restaurants string wire and wrap around a string of lights that look like these which can be purchased at most garden centers/nurseries. Otherwise, the string of lights will stretch and sag, and you will lose the nice angles you see here. We have string lights on wire on our patio and they still look nice and straight.

Did you find out where these lights can be purchased? I think Restoration Hardware had something like this

Thanks for the comments. I am still looking as I'd like the same quality that restaurants use.

Good tip on the wire to support.

I did check out the restoration hardware ones. I'm concerned that they aren't durable enough for a permanent installation.
