hmm thats tricky! It looks so nice an open now with nothing there, and because the view to see the fixture is mostly from this angle I see why they went with one. I do like the idea of two smaller pendants. I would not paint the cabinets especially white too much tone on tone, you have a nice contrast right now.

Thank you @RL Relocation LLC I really like the globe option in your picture. I'll add that to my short list. And thank you for the suggestion about not painting the cabinets and contrast. A designer working in another room in my house said something similar and recommended only painting the island.

nice traditional kitchen. no cabinet painting needed. play up the traditional feel. issue is the stools as its a good sized island but not sure about the overhang. what do you think about more substantial stools..thats more the question. do people congregate so a case for more investment in stools..or not so much ??? first two pics..traditional fixtures ..there would be lots to pick from.......then stools to think about to provide comfort w seating for longer intervals.

Thank you @herbflavor Lots of great inspiration pics for me to consider. Love the lights and stools in several of them. Yes for sure to more substanial stools and something with a back for comfort. I agree with you about leaning into the traditional feel as that is also consistent with the rest of the house. Though the designer I'm working with in other spaces is tastefully incorporating some transitional elements as well.

Hello! We`d like to offer these pendants, they will look great! What do you think?

@MIRODEMI Thank you for the recommendation. Would you recommend 2 or 3 with my 7ft island. Do you have a link to where these can be purchased or additional close-up pictures? At first glace I thought they were too modern for my very traditional kitchen but I could see these adding a flare of interest.

Very pretty kitchen.

I have a smaller island and went with 2 lanterns which I love.

I have recently come across this fixture which I love and think might be very nice in your space. It's from Home Depot.

I have considered it in my dining room but I think it's great for an island.

Just one more suggestion for your perusal. (Oh and it's reasonably priced).
