Benromach 1977 Whisky Barrel Pendant Light
£199.00
A three-bulb pendant made from a stave of Benromach cask 626, filled in 1977. The distillery name, year and cask number are burned into the oak, and I finish the stave by hand in my workshop near Loch Lomond.
The cask behind the light
Benromach is a small distillery in Forres, on the edge of Speyside. This stave held whisky in cask 626, filled in 1977. The year is when the cask was filled, not a statement of how old any whisky was.

Where this light belongs
Three bulbs along the stave suit a dining table, a kitchen island or the bar in a games room. The black chain ties in with darker fittings, and the oak keeps it warm.
Before you order
No two staves are the same. Yours may be a little wider or narrower than the one in the photos, and lighter or darker, depending on the cask and the grain. It's reclaimed oak, not a factory product.
Choose the bulb holder finish when you order: brass/bronze, copper, black or silver. For any other finish, email info@barrelcraftstudio.co.uk before ordering.
Please arrange installation with a qualified electrician. If you need a different chain or cable length, email info@barrelcraftstudio.co.uk before ordering.
Frequently asked questions
Which bulbs work best?
The holders take E27 bulbs, and Edison-style filament bulbs suit the oak and the open holders best. LED filament versions give the same warm look and run cooler.
