A pendant lamp is a single light fixture that hangs from the ceiling via a cord or chain. IKEA is a Swedish retailer, providing affordable furniture and other home goods. One reason IKEA can offer affordable items is that nothing comes assembled or installed. Luckily, installing the IKEA pendant lamp is quite simple, regardless of the model. All you'll need is a screwdriver.
