Sonoma County Restaurant Goes Chic with Contemporary Pendant Lighting

Written by Samantha | 9/21/16 6:42 PM

Brothers Dustin Valette and Aaron Garzini returned to their hometown of Healdsburg, California last year and opened Valette, a rustic restaurant specializing in local and organic cuisine. Located in wine-centric Sonoma County, home to outstanding vineyards, tasting rooms, and eateries, this family-run establishment boasts an inviting interior. Niche's contemporary pendant lighting certainly adds to their classic and sophisticated aesthetic.


Designed by Healdsburg's own Myra Hoefer Design, known for her mix of casual California style and Parisian chic, Valette maintains a romantic elegance that matches the vibe of Wine Country. Multiple Pod pendants in Crystal glass hang above the bar. Their linear layout adds visual depth and helps to elongate the intimate room. The color choice complements the stream of natural light and contributes to the room's minimal feel, especially against the concrete walls and warm wood grains.



The Pod's signature shape and crystal glass color offer a luxurious balance to this space, and we can't help but stare. Explore more lighting options to make your bar area turn heads.
