Frequently Asked Questions
What size room does it need?
A generous one. A large dining room, an open living space or a double height entry suits it. In a small room the spread will overwhelm rather than flatter, so give it the space it was drawn for.
How high does the ceiling need to be?
Nine feet and up gives the best result, and it is spectacular in a stairwell or double height space. The form is wide rather than deep, so height is about proportion more than clearance.
Is it as bright as it looks?
Yes, with multiple shades all throwing outward it lights a whole room on its own. A dimmer is worth fitting so you can pull it back to a low glow for the evening.
Does it need special mounting?
It mounts to a ceiling box like any fixture, but at this size your electrician should confirm the box and joist are rated for the weight. That is a five minute check before installation.
How do I clean something this size?
A dry soft cloth over each shade once a year from a step ladder. No sprays, no damp cloth. The stone keeps its tone on its own once the dust is off.
