Story
Story
The Kono begins as a flat copper disc — perfectly round, perfectly even. A craftsman places it at the center and begins working it downward and outward, pressing the metal into a wide, shallow cone. The angle is deliberate: not steep like a dunce cap, not round like a dome, but wide and low — the kind of form that covers a large area of ceiling with almost no vertical mass. The challenge with a cone this flat is keeping the surface clean. Any unevenness in the metal's tension shows as a ripple or a dip, so the shaping is done slowly, with constant checking and adjusting, until the taper is true all the way from the apex to the open edge.
The finish is where time enters the story. Rather than applying a patina through chemicals or heat, the Kono goes through a polishing and controlled aging process — the surface is brought to a warm shine, then allowed to develop its variation naturally under workshop conditions. The result is that shifting amber tone you see across the cone: brighter near the apex where the metal is thinnest, warming and deepening toward the wide brim. No two pieces land at exactly the same point in that progression, which means no two Kono pendants are identical.
Hung low over a kitchen island or a reading nook, the Kono throws a wide, even pool of light downward — and from above, it reads as a clean copper triangle, simple and completely resolved.
Finish & patina
Finish & patina
Every hevna pendant is solid, unlacquered metal — no coating, no sealer. The finish is the metal, so it lives and changes with use. Out of the water, that change is slow and gradual.
- Brass — starts golden and bright, then mellows into a warm, antique amber over months.
- Copper — settles from bright into rich russet and chocolate tones.
- It ages evenly — with no water and little handling, a pendant patinas slowly and uniformly, not in patches.
- Want it bright? An occasional wipe of polish keeps the shine for years.
- Want it aged? Leave it — it deepens on its own into a finish people pay extra to fake.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it hardwired, and can my electrician install it?
Is it hardwired, and can my electrician install it?
Yes. Each pendant hardwires to a standard ceiling junction box with the included canopy and uses a standard medium-base socket, so an electrician installs it like any quality hardwired fixture. We recommend a licensed electrician, which is standard practice for any hardwired light
What bulb does it take, and is it dimmable?
What bulb does it take, and is it dimmable?
It takes a standard medium-base bulb. Bulbs are sold separately so you can choose the style and color temperature you want. With a standard bulb and a compatible dimmer switch, the light dims smoothly from bright to soft. The exact bulb fitting and maximum wattage for your model are listed in its specifications.
Can I adjust the hanging height?
Can I adjust the hanging height?
Yes. The hanging hardware is adjustable so you can set the right drop for your ceiling and the space below. The type of rod, cord, or chain and its adjustable range are listed in the product specifications for each model.
Will the copper age indoors too?
Will the copper age indoors too?
Yes, slowly. Without the water and daily handling of a kitchen, copper softens over months into a richer, warmer tone rather than a deep patina. The warm glow it throws off, and the reflection inside the shade, is what makes light from solid copper feel different from a plated fixture. If you ever want the brighter look back, a copper polish restores it.
Is it solid copper, or plated like cheaper pendants?
Is it solid copper, or plated like cheaper pendants?
Solid copper. Cheap pendants are usually plated steel or zinc, where the thin coating eventually chips or clouds and cannot be brought back.
Solid copper has no coating to fail. It ages instead of degrading, and a polish always returns it.
Every pendant carries a free shipping, and free returns.
