Know before you buy
The fixture body itself measures 42.75 inches in height. Because it is a chain-hung lantern, the total hanging length can be adjusted based on your ceiling height and the length of the chain provided.
Yes, the canopy is designed to accommodate standard sloped ceiling installations. We recommend consulting with your electrician to ensure the mounting hardware is properly secured for your specific ceiling angle.
This fixture requires six E12 candelabra-style bulbs. You can use up to 60 watts per bulb, though LED candelabra bulbs are recommended for better energy efficiency and longevity.
The clear glass panels are accessible, but because this is a large, high-hanging fixture, you will need a sturdy ladder to reach it. A simple glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth are sufficient to maintain the clarity of the panels.
Given its width of 28.75 inches, this piece is best suited for larger dining rooms or grand entryways. It is a substantial fixture, so ensure your dining table is large enough to balance the scale of the lantern.
With six 60-watt bulbs, this lantern provides a total of 360 watts of illumination, which is generally sufficient for a large entryway or dining area. If you prefer a softer ambiance, we recommend installing the fixture on a dimmer switch.
