Thick brown leather lacing follows each vertical seam and wraps around both openings. The stitches become the defining decoration, tracing the construction in a continuous rhythm against the cream-colored surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFine variations in tone, mottling, and subtle marks remain visible across the leather. When illuminated, the panels take on a warm amber glow, while the darker seams emphasize the shade’s gently undulating shape. The open underside allows light to fall onto the space below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbove, a generous rope tassel gathers beneath a rounded knot, connecting the shade to the slender suspension. A closely rope-wrapped ceiling canopy repeats the material, with raised vertical cords and another knot completing the composition. These details give the pendant a considered presence from ceiling to shade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver a small dining table, in an entry, or beside a seating area, the pendant introduces a softer silhouette among wood, stone, and plaster. Its appeal lies in the visible handwork: leather cut into shaped panels, seams deliberately exposed, and rope twisted, wrapped, and gathered into a quietly expressive whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"South Loop Loft","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53082205749559,"sku":null,"price":3600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0740\/0135\/0967\/files\/kPLXeqx3V7Yc1AE4iyD-FDM4GHD6hkn59nSGBm3MjNg.jpg?v=1791410197","url":"https:\/\/thesouthlooploft.com\/products\/french-rope-pendant-with-handstitched-leather-shade-1970s","provider":"South Loop Loft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
