    These are hung with approximately 36" between the island top and the bottom of the light. It will vary depending on your ceiling height and the width of the island.

    Thanks. My island is 37.5x58, ceiling is 9feet. The pendants I have are 12 inch in diameter and 10in in ht. is that too big? And are they hung too low? Thanks

    These do look too large. :( They are taking up over a third of your island and overpowering it a bit. As for the height, it is subjective, the only rule being the lights should be above eye level so you don't need to bend down to converse with the person across from you at the island. -- Rock Roy, Designer, Grace Home Furnishings

    I apologize for the many questions, but do you think if I took them up a little bit, they won't look too overpowering? Thanks again for your help

    Yes, if you raise them that will probably help. You will just have to make sure the light doesn't shine in your eyes once they are raised. - Rock Roy
