If the lights over the island are your primary source of lighting you may want more than just a couple of pendants. You'll require anbiant light that illuminates the area.

So you'll need either chains or cables with a small junction canopy.

You will need a chain that can be customized and/or has a very long drop - I'd skip the pendants if it were me
