Need help with dining chandelier

11 years ago

We are building a house and I am picking a chandelier. My husband doesn't want it to hang more than 30" from the celling so it doesn't obstruct our view from the mountains. I have found one that can be hung from a 6" rod (Kichler Hendrik 6 light chandelier). Will this look alright or is that rod length too short?

A chadalier should be hung so that the bottom of the fixture is 30” from the top of the table so not sure how that will work unless you have an 8’ ceiling.
