pickmepickmepickme
I've wanted one of these my whole life! i love.
love it!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the giveaway I want to win the most!
Ok, so I have been commenting EVERYDAY trying to win something, and have been unsuccessful! Today I am going to try to write a actual comment, rather then just "I love it" hoping this helps me win!
I am in the process of moving to a new state 2700 miles away from CT (george nelsons home state), and had to leave a lot of stuff behind. Resent purchases for my place consist of a Nelson bench (replica of course) and ball clock. This light would be perfect, not only does it fit my decor, but i need it for above our dining room table, since the previous owners took their light fixture with them, we just have a whole in the ceiling...
So please pic me, this is a piece I will truly appreciate it! think of it as a house warming gift!
monkeyluck80, I believe the winner is selected at random.
ohhhh please!!!
exactly what i've been searching for.xoxo
In the middle of renovation our new house and we are updating all the lighting fixtures. This will look amazing over our dining room table.
I always feel like R&B is completely out of my reach - I covet most everything on their website. These are lovely.
So, so beautiful!
I have been pining after one of these for far too many years...
This pendant light has been on my wish list for a long time. Love the misty blue color.
I love these, and any one of the above would definitely put an end to my husband's possibly disastrous insistence that we DIY a light fixture for our entryway.
Have been coveting one for a very long time -- woudl love to win!
Hey these are sweet lights!! I love the retro - new - warm - edgy/angular feel. I would get rid of that old ugly one over the table and replace it with this.
btw... it would be a great day to win, it's my bday... almost the a big one =)
Misty blue, please.
Absolutely lovely!!
I have been in love with the classic version of these lights forever and when they came out in these colors I gasped! SO beautiful!!!
Oh please, please help me rid my apartment of the dreaded flush-mount ceiling fixtures!
This is the giveaway I have been waiting my whole life for.
me want!
This I really truly want. Oh please Santa I've been sooooo good.
I love these lights. Either one would look amazing in my house. Can't wait to win them.
JUST BY READING ALL THESE COMMENTS -- it's shows that the competition is ON!! And the LUCKY one will win at the end..
Fun yet romantic
This would be the best Christmas present! We are looking for a modern light for our dining room and just can't spend the money right now. I'll cross all my fingers and toes!
JUST what I've been looking for for my dining room.
this will go great with the wall sconces i have.
These are my favorites!
These are fantastic! I would love the mist colored one for my living room. It would add so much interest to the room without taking up a lot of space in my super tiny apartment.

Always seeking to become more en"light"ened...
all I want for Christmas is a pendant light!
bigger one! gorgeous~
Just lovely - so clean and simple. Good luck to us all!

My cheap fluorescent light in my home office recently burnt out. The walls are the same color as the misty blue pendant. Oh, how nice it must be to have the money to buy a beautiful lamp like that...
I need more "non-overhead" lighting in our home. This would warm it up in an amazing way!!!
I cant afford to buy one but would love one for our little place.
Dear Santa,
Here is a picture of what I want for Christmas...
Love,
metrogirl
These are super beautiful! One for my apartment would be great!
I've always wanted one of these. I thought commenting did not increase our chances of winning at all. Moneyluck80 am I missing something here?
I've always loved the style of Nelson lights. They're so simple in shape and texture, yet they add such drama to a space. That's a rare combination.
Theses are definately different than anything you can get at Lowes. you can actually feel them in your nind.
sorry--in your mind!
please i beg of you!!!!
i recently redecorated my bedroom and these would top it off!
The one place in our loft apartment we have been unable to adequately light is above the dining table. This pendant would finally solve that issue! Our quest for dinner lighting is actually getting to be a fire hazard, as the only way we have found to properly light a meal is to cover the table in beautiful but dangerous candles of all varying shapes and sizes. Our landlord would be very grateful if we won this light, as would we, since it would be the centerpiece of our open space and would allow all our hard work in the kitchen to not be lost amid the darkened atmosphere that is a dimly lit dining table. Thank you!
My older apartment has almost no overhead lighting, this is just the thing so that we can see to get around :)
Any of these would be just the therapy our dining room needs.
These are beautiful!!Love it!
sweet
Dear Santa,
These are very beautiful!
these would look in any apartment but best in mine!
Oh please Oh please!!!
I have really wanted one of these for years now.
i bought a similar style for my dining room but i have never really loved it and i wish i had just put my money towards the real thing. in the long run, i should have just gone with the timeless but more expensive one. lesson learned! :)
love the Ivory
You...Light up my life!!! You give me hope...to carry on...
Love, my dining room
Yes, please! Tickle me ivory.
Stunning!
These are so lovely... I need light in the dark corner of my living room. Ivory is pretty, but the mist is also nice.
BEAUTIFUL!
I need this. Not only want, but really really really need. Thank you.
When are Canadians going to be allowed to win something?
This would look great in my living room, our bedroom, the baby's room...
this would be soo nice in my house
Yes please!
Oooo, these would look fabulous in my new house!
I have been looking for a new (hopefully Nelson) pendant for over my dining room table. Please, Santa, please!

My apartment is yaerning for a Nelson pendant lamp!
Absolutely gorgeous lights!
I am so, so obsessed with these! My fingers (and toes) are double-crossed!

Well, maybe commenter #99 will make me the lucky winner! I've wanted a Nelson pendant for a while now, and it will be the perfect way to jumpstart my stalled bathroom addition-With something so fab, the rest of the project HAS to hurry and catch up-stylistically and realistically!
I'm in love with the blue one! Its amazing :-)
So lovely! I love this, want this, no, I need this! And yes, I have a space for you, baby! Please, please, please...
Best thing on here yet.
Let's hope Room and Board gives a little back to this loyal customer!

Wow - So MCM - just like my house!
I keep coming back to this light. I really really want it
must......have
Beautiful designs!
Oh, Lord!!!! PLEASE PICK ME!!!!!! I've lusted after this light for years!
I'm glad I was sitting down for this - these are GORGEOUS!
I LOVE all of them. Sculpturally beautiful!
I'm a huge fan of George Nelson and Herman Miller. Every style lamp from this collection is so beautiful, like a piece of art. (Especially now that they are in other colors). My home is mid century modern throughout, and this lighting would be a perfect addition, and go well with all my mid century vintage pieces. I've always wanted one.......
i've always loved the design. hadn't seen the colors before-wonderful.
my grandfather's mid-century home had 3 over the sunken dining, we bought the house...(i yearned for it since age 13) but the original nelson lamps had hardened past repair... i would love replacements!
can you go wrong with a color called 'mist'? in the words of whitney, 'aw, hell-to-the-no'
Love these. The colors are gorgeous!
