Flotilla View Black Chandelier

The "mixed metal" aesthetic—combining a bold black finish with antique brass accents—is a hallmark of Transitional and Modern Industrial design. This versatile look pairs exceptionally well with natural wood dining tables, matte black hardware, or contemporary kitchen cabinetry, offering a vintage-inspired update that easily reinvigorates a home’s existing decor.

For a balanced look over a rectangular dining table, your light fixture should ideally be approximately 1/2 to 2/3 the length of the tabletop. With its 43-inch span, this linear chandelier is an excellent fit for dining tables ranging from 6 feet (72 inches) to 7.5 feet (90 inches) long, providing comprehensive light coverage while maintaining an authoritative presence in the room.

This fixture is designed with durable metal and glass materials for long-term use. The metal cage and brass rods can be dusted easily with a soft, dry cloth. For the six glass globe shades, we recommend a gentle wipe-down with a microfiber cloth to maintain the clarity of the white glass—a practical feature for fixtures placed in high-activity areas like kitchens where airborne grease or dust may accumulate.

This chandelier is a sophisticated choice for modern homes with vaulted or high ceilings, as it offers a substantial maximum height of 52.75 inches. Its striking linear cage design serves as a visual anchor in open-concept living spaces, drawing the eye upward and defining the dining zone. Because this is a hardwired metal fixture with two-side down rods, professional installation by a licensed electrician is recommended to ensure the unit is perfectly leveled and securely mounted.

To maximize both visibility and illumination, the bottom of the globe shades should typically sit 30 to 36 inches above your surface. This professional standard provides sufficient clearance for unobstructed conversation across the table while effectively task-lighting a kitchen island for food preparation or casual dining.

This chandelier features six white glass globe shades that brilliantly diffuse light, reducing harsh glare while providing generous ambient and task lighting. The 6-light configuration is intentionally designed for medium to large dining rooms, ensuring the entire table surface is evenly illuminated for everything from formal dinners to family game nights.
