Chandelier on Sloped Ceiling?

5 years ago

I love this chandelier I found but it doesn't say anything about being able to be mounted on a sloped ceiling. Can I buy an adapter so that it will hang correctly on a sloped ceiling? How do I know whether an adapter will work or not? Here is the link: https://www.shadesoflight.com/products/mirrored-geometry-drum-chandelier-5-light?via=57e1330169702d78ae0000a5%2C57e1339069702d78ae0002ca

My ceiling- it would hang on the sloped part by the window in the dining area.

Thank you for any help! I'm hoping I can get this chandelier to work.

It has a pivot built into the down rod, this is a closeup of the pivot in their photo.

The description notes "Sloped Ceiling Compatible = Yes" for those chandeliers that are, for example: https://www.shadesoflight.com/products/valerian-chandelier. Also, if you look at the picture of the canopy, the downrod screws right into it and there's no way the downrod can hang other than straight down. I'd contact the vendor and ask if he has a solution such as a different canopy. There are adapters (examples).
