Thank you the women i was working with told me i should have a fixture that is 30 -40 ” in diameter because the ceiling is tall this chandelier comes in 32” would that be better?

Does anyone know where i can find a pendant light sumilar to this?

What is height of ceiling?

Here is pendant. Is is 20” which is quite large. 5 weeks to ship. So long lead time.

Also size of chandelier depends on table size too. How wide is your table. Length?

@Flo Mangan - that is amazing you found that! But if I am reading it right, the dimensions shown are in cm. Converting cm to inches, the 20 cm diameter is just slightly under 8”.

You are right. I missed that cm in tiny print. 8” might be too small! Haha! Depending on your final choice for dining fixture, other open options might coordinate better.

Just found the larger version, the ”Orla”. It is 30 cm diameter, which is just under 12”. Here is a pic showing the Ava and Orla together:

Some options but need more info on size of table, ceiling height and size of island countertop.

You can get simple fixture and add magnetic crystal drops to it if you want that look.

oh and I forgot, the table will be round 60"

i put a few more pics together and would love your opinions!

In the case of table size, that is when you go linear or do double if the case prevails for it. however, there is nothing worse than a 4-foot tall chandelier stuck to the ceiling because the "table size" called for width. You really have to take a total look at these things, sorry the salesperson did that to you, but glad we caught it in time!

Moving to the pendant lights I am noticing from you photo there are no recessed lights over the island or in front of it, not sure if that is accurate, but you will want working downlight.

I am liking these pendants, simple, and tie in to the kitichen and have the darker finish to go with the chandelier, they are 12" wide as well.

The other one I posted is MF as well.

also this one, you will notice in the finish of the chateau when you get it it has gold and silver ps.

12' is a high ceiling. Although I love the glass pendent mentioned above, I like the metal shades better for your kitchen. I think the glass gets lost and my eye wants more substance here. Not a pro.

I like the metal ones as well.

Ok. With 60” round table you could go 36” round but probably 32” works. Depends on specific styling of the chandelier. I believe a more modern fixture will look better over the table if the model photo is like yours, the finishes appear more modern. Both spaces are open to each other so they need to compliment each other. Your ceiling height will mean we have to ensure there is adequate wire with the fixture and chain or post sections. Good you posted because the person advising you was perhaps “selling” product. Bbl

Here is combo that would look dramatic and beautiful!

With your ceiling height and assuming you have big window in dining area, a two tier chandelier with open design over your round table will be gorgeous. Add some gold hardware in the kitchen and this would look awesome!

With width comes height, unless you go linear. please believe me. Most chandeliers come with 6ft of wire and chain stock when they get into the larger size, need not be concerned with that as your new fixture is almost 3 feet tall still.

So true RL. That’s why I am suggesting a two tier chandelier. I thought the OP stated hubby nixed first chandelier. No crystals. So hence, different approach.

Cjanssen. Are you still doing Crystal chandelier and only looking for pendants for island now? Maybe I misunderstood your hubbies position. Sorry. Please clarify. Thanks.

I really love the crystal chandelier and my husband does too he just didn't want any more fancy in the island lights i love the island lights with the darker

shades but they dont really go with mf chandelier

Ok. No worries. We can find ones that work. Do you have big window in your condo like the model? That’s so pretty!

I love the shape of this one snd the size. We could darken the metal if you want but it might be a way to keep the dining room chandelier the star with this finish. Great price too. And it’s tall which is great with your ceiling heights. What are your thoughts on it? Has curves and a small ball (I think it’s glass?). I will look at details. And it has a more open, modern feel of your kitchen. Not too fancy; not too casual!

Here is mock up for you.

We might need pendants that have lower profile since the chandy is so bold. I will try another type.

Different bar stools coordinating with your dining chairs would be wonderful. The pendants are smokier glass with black detail and black posts.

I like these better.

They repeat the black in the chandy and the darker mercury glass will create interest with out stealing the show. The curved details are keeping chandelier shapes in mind but not “matching “. See what you think. These are from Ballard Designs and aren’t expected until February but see if you like the concept. Not sure of your timing?

Flo, you are amazing! I love these! Will show to my husband even though he said he likes the domes I know he wouldn't like the first ones because he wants to keep the island lights simple since the chandelier is a little ornate

Flo I have plenty of time! they haven't even dug the hole yet so we are looking at a year before we get in trhe house, at least .

and yes, we have a big window like the model .

Oh wonderful! That window is everything!! Ok great. I will check in later for hubby’s input. 😍

Please remember these will be task lighting over the island.

Flo, I loved them! He's not crazy about them . But he is making me crazy!!! Any other ideas? I also lo ve the darker bar stools! Where are they from? Are you an interior designer? You taste is fantastic!

It should be easy to make sure there are sufficient can lights to provide overall lighting along with other task lighting like undercabinet lighting for an overall "layered lighting plan". So, I would not consider pendants generally as "task lighting" in any case. So depends on what the actual overall lighting plan is. Make sure you get the plan for lighting which is part of your electrical package.

Yes, I am a designer. I just noticed the "pro" indicator has been changed by Houzz. Notice it is under my photo. At any rate, a suggestion when dealing with a partner is to try giving them a couple choices so you don't get into a "veto" situation overall. If he wants total involvement, then it is very hard to get to a decision quickly. In building, rapid decision-making is vital to budget and schedule control. Since you are early in the process, it's a good time to kind of layout your guidelines. Maybe create a decision-making process that works for both of you. Building in this environment is really difficult due to inflation and material shortages. So, buckle your seatbelt.

Pendants with forced downlight are task lighting, but it seems I am more of a nuisance than a help on this thread. Best of luck, Flo is very talented.

No no no RL. You are a lighting expert. We all benefit from your insights.

Here are the stools I put in that mock up.

Yes, I appreciate everyone's help and advice RL . I am a novice at interior design and welcome all the help I can get!

what do you think of these lights?
