Beckett Medium Chandelier

To create the right balance when hanging a chandelier or ceiling lamp above your dining table, leave about 75 cm to 90 cm between the bottom of the fixture and the surface of the table. This height keeps the light focused while allowing enough room for comfortable conversation. For the best fit, choose a fixture that’s at least 15 cm narrower than the width of your table, ensuring it complements the space without overwhelming it. This way, your lighting will feel perfectly proportioned to the room.

When selecting a fixture for a round table, aim for one with a width that’s between half and three-quarters of the table’s diameter. This helps maintain visual balance. As with any dining setup, leave around 75 cm to 90 cm of space between the bottom of the fixture and the tabletop to ensure the lighting is functional while keeping the area open and comfortable for dining.
