Upshaw Cove Brass Chandelier

When selecting a linear chandelier like the Upshaw Cove, it is important to consider the proportions of your surface. For a balanced look, aim for a fixture that is roughly 1/2 to 2/3 the length of your dining table or kitchen island. With this model's 31-inch width, it serves as an ideal centerpiece for tables approximately 5 to 6 feet long, ensuring ample light coverage without overwhelming the furniture.

Yes, we recommend professional installation by a licensed electrician for this chandelier. As a hardwired metal fixture, it must be integrated directly into your home’s electrical system. Professional installation ensures that the 31-pound linear frame is securely mounted and perfectly level, which is essential for maintaining the clean lines of its modern design.

This chandelier is perfectly suited for open-concept layouts, particularly those blending glam and industrial styles. Its slim 6.3-inch depth and linear profile make it an excellent choice for defining a dining zone or kitchen island without obstructing views into adjacent living areas. For a cohesive look throughout your home, consider pairing it with the matching Upshaw Cove brass sconces in nearby hallways or entryways.

This fixture features an open, cage-like wire design that leaves the bulbs fully exposed, making the choice of bulb a key part of the aesthetic. We highly recommend using Edison-style LED bulbs to enhance its transitional and industrial appeal. These bulbs provide a warm, vintage glow that complements the brushed brass finish while remaining energy-efficient for daily use.

To provide optimal illumination while maintaining clear sightlines for conversation, we recommend hanging the bottom of the fixture 30 to 36 inches above the tabletop. This height allows the brushed brass geometric cage to act as a stunning visual anchor in your room while providing functional, targeted light for meals or tasks.
