what's the size of the countertop and the diameter of your benson ligh

I have a 69" island and was unsure to go with three 7" lights or 3 of the 13" ones.. the model home uses a pendant that's 10" in diameter... will 7" be too small and the 13" be overwhelming?

thoughts?

    The island is 99” wide and has 3 of the 13” pendants over it. For a 69” island I would suggest three 7” pendants if you have to use three. If you can use only two than use the 13” pendants.

    Thanks! I'm leaning towards two 13" pendants.. It makes a strinking statement (versus three 7" fixtures)

    Linda, what would you suggest for a square Island that is 51" x 51"? We were thinking of using 2 Benson pendants, but we are unsure whether we should buy the 7" or the 13" pendants. We need your help!

    I would suggest 2 of the 7" Benson Pendants.
