32 is my favourite, pendant light’s curvature is elegant, where can I get that light pendant?

I love number one- so earthy and unique.
We kept the sink off our island and also went with a single light fitting not three pendants in a row. Just for something different. I have had an all white kitchen with sleek surfaces before and it was boring and always had finger marks and streaks. I’m finding the rugged concrete easy to look after.
