How to choose a chandelier size
A chandelier that is too small looks lost, and one that is too large crowds the table. These rules of thumb get you close.
- Open rooms and foyers: add the room's length and width in feet. The total, read in inches, is a good fixture diameter. A 12 by 14 foot room suits a chandelier about 26 inches wide.
- Over a dining table: aim for a width between one-half and two-thirds of the table width, and hang the bottom 30 to 36 inches above the tabletop.
- Long tables and islands: a linear chandelier, or two smaller fixtures, spreads light more evenly than one round piece.
- Walkways: in entries and living areas, keep at least 7 feet of clearance below the fixture.
Finish should echo other metals in the room, such as cabinet hardware or chair legs. Install a dimmer switch so dimmable fixtures can shift from bright task light to a soft glow. For more detail, read how to choose a chandelier size.
