swag lamp
Draped ceiling fixture
A swag lamp is a hanging light fixture suspended from a ceiling hook by a decorative chain or cord, with the electrical cord typically draped to a wall outlet rather than hardwired.
The swag—the draped loop of chain—is both functional and ornamental.
Popular in mid-20th-century décor, swag lamps allow flexible placement without rewiring: She hung a swag lamp over the reading nook.
