Drew Street White Chandelier

For the best visual impact and functional lighting, we recommend hanging the bottom of the fixture approximately 30 to 36 inches above the surface of your dining table. This height provides ample ambient light for meals and tasks while keeping sightlines open for conversation across the table.

Because this is a hardwired ceiling fixture, professional installation by a licensed electrician is highly recommended. This ensures that the metal frame—which has a total height of 60 inches—is securely mounted to your home's electrical system and meets all local safety codes, particularly if you are hanging the fixture in a grand entryway or a room with vaulted ceilings.

With a substantial height of 60 inches, this chandelier is specifically designed to make a statement in rooms with higher or vaulted ceilings. In a space with standard 8-foot ceilings, the fixture's scale may be too tall for high-traffic areas. However, it can serve as a dramatic and elegant centerpiece when placed directly over a dining table, provided the hanging height is adjusted to allow for comfortable clearance.

This chandelier is designed with six bulb sockets to provide generous ambient lighting, making it an effective primary light source for a kitchen or dining area. The transitional design and white shades help diffuse the light, reducing harsh glares and creating a soft, inviting glow that works well for both casual family meals and formal entertaining.

To ensure a chandelier is properly scaled for your room, a professional designer rule is to add the length and width of your room in feet; the sum in inches represents the ideal diameter for your fixture. With its 28-inch diameter, this chandelier is an excellent fit for medium-sized dining rooms or entryways (approximately 14' x 14'). For placement over a table, aim for a diameter that is one-half to two-thirds the width of the tabletop to maintain a balanced look.

White-finished fixtures are a staple of coastal design because they contribute to a bright, airy aesthetic. This chandelier features an all-metal frame with a durable gloss finish, which is generally more resilient in humid environments than porous materials. Based on our material care expertise, we recommend dusting the metal frame regularly with a soft, dry cloth to prevent the buildup of moisture or salt-air residue that can dull the finish over time.
