A Word About Size
The following recommendations are offered as general guideline to aid in your selection of a light fixture. However, your choice should also be governed by the scale of the surroundings, the mood of the setting, as well as personal preference.
When selecting a fixture the most important thing to consider is size. A lantern or chandelier too small for its setting will look out of place. Do not be afraid to choose a large fixture.
We recommend that a wall fixture be one quarter to one third the height of your doorway. Chandelier width should be one foot less than the width of the table. The height over the table should be thirty to thirty six inches. Lighting is not only an important part of your decor, it is a very functional one. If you are debating between two sizes of a particular fixture, we suggest that you select the larger size. This will assure proper illuminations.
