Albert Drive Black Chandelier

Yes. With a substantial 72-inch total height and a 40-inch diameter, this fixture is specifically engineered to fill the vertical volume of rooms with vaulted ceilings or two-story foyers. Its large scale ensures it doesn't "get lost" in high-ceiling environments. Because this is a hardwired metal fixture, we recommend professional installation by a licensed electrician to ensure it is securely mounted and properly balanced in these architectural spaces.

A chandelier of this scale is a statement piece designed for larger spaces. To ensure a balanced look, a common designer's rule is to add the length and width of your room in feet; the resulting sum in inches is a great guide for the ideal fixture diameter. At 40 inches wide, this chandelier is best suited for grand dining rooms, spacious entryways, or open-concept living areas where it can serve as a dominant focal point without overwhelming the decor.

For optimal lighting and visual impact, we recommend hanging the chandelier so the bottom of the fixture sits 30 to 36 inches above your dining table. This height ensures the 6-light candle-style design provides a warm, intimate glow at eye level while remaining high enough to avoid obstructing views across the table. In rooms with ceilings higher than the standard eight feet, you may choose to hang the fixture slightly higher to maintain a sense of proportion.

This chandelier is crafted from sturdy metal with a resilient black finish, making it a durable option for indoor use. While metal fixtures are generally long-lasting, salt air and high humidity can affect finishes over time. Based on our expertise in material care, we recommend regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth to prevent moisture and debris from settling on the frame, which helps preserve the integrity of the rustic black finish for years to come.

The simple, elegant lines and rustic black finish of this chandelier make it a hallmark of the modern farmhouse aesthetic. However, its versatile metal construction also complements industrial-themed spaces or contemporary rooms that feature dark hardware. It pairs exceptionally well with natural wood textures, such as a reclaimed wood dining table, or as a sophisticated contrast against a neutral-toned primary bedroom.

To keep your lighting looking its best, we recommend dusting the metal frame and the six candle-style sockets weekly with a soft, lint-free cloth or a static duster. For a deeper clean, you can use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, ensuring you avoid any harsh chemicals or abrasives that could mar the black finish. Always ensure the power is off and the bulbs are cool before cleaning.
