Know before you buy
Yes, the Alberto Small is specifically engineered for lower ceiling heights. With a fixture height of 27 inches and an adjustable chain, it provides a dramatic sculptural presence without overwhelming the vertical space.
This chandelier uses six E12 candelabra base bulbs. We recommend using 5.5W LED G16.5 bulbs to achieve the intended aesthetic while maintaining energy efficiency.
Yes, this fixture is versatile enough for residential bathrooms, provided it is not installed directly inside a shower or wet zone. Its plaster and metal construction adds a sophisticated, organic texture to bathroom interiors.
To maintain the intricate plaster forms, gently dust the fixture with a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a feather duster. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or water, as these can damage the delicate sculpted finish.
The chandelier includes 6 feet of chain, providing ample length to adjust the hanging height to your specific room requirements. You can shorten the chain during installation to achieve the perfect drop for your space.
The Antique Brass finish offers a warm, aged metallic look that complements traditional and transitional spaces, while the Gold Leaf finish provides a more luminous, reflective quality that leans into the artistic, sculptural nature of the design.
