FIND THE RIGHT CHANDELIER FOR ANY ROOM
A chandelier does more than light a room—it sets the mood. Choose the look first, then size and height. For timeless sparkle and formal dining, explore Crystal Chandeliers. Prefer clean lines and minimal hardware? See our Modern Chandeliers. If your goal is a welcoming first impression, an staircase Chandelier anchors the foyer without overwhelming it.
Scale & height: As a quick starting point, add room width and length (in feet) to estimate diameter in inches. Over a table, choose about ½–⅔ of table width (or ½–¾ of table length for linear bars) and hang roughly 30–36 in above the tabletop. In walk paths, keep about 7 ft of clearance so sightlines stay open.
Light quality & control: Use 2700–3000K for warm dinners and relaxed evenings; move toward 3500K for a crisper feel in bright, modern rooms. Pair with a compatible LED dimmer (per driver type) to shift from entertaining to wind-down light smoothly.
Finish & coordination: Matte black, brushed nickel, chrome, and soft gold pair easily with most hardware. Keep finishes and color temperature consistent across nearby fixtures for a cohesive look throughout adjacent spaces.
Quick tips
- Low ceilings: Choose airy frames or compact tiers to avoid visual weight.
- Tall spaces: Multi-tier silhouettes fill vertical volume without glare.
- Glare control: Diffusers, shades, or frosted bulbs soften points of light.
- Sizing help: See our Chandelier Size Guide for formulas and real-room examples.
