Pench 54 Tapered Brass Linear Chandelier by Visual Comfort & Co

The Pench 54 Tapered Brass Linear Chandelier is Kelly Wearstler's grand dining ceiling piece in the Pench series — a 54-inch architectural linear fixture with a tapered form that gives it a visual energy the parallel-sided 42-inch version does not have. The taper means the fixture is wider at one end than the other, creating a sense of direction and dynamism that makes it read as a deliberately composed ceiling element rather than a simple bar of light. In Hand Rubbed Antique Brass, the finish adds warmth and craft quality that reinforces the fixture's material conviction. At 54 inches it is scaled for the most significant residential dining rooms and for commercial dining environments where the ceiling fixture is expected to contribute to the design as substantially as the furniture below it.

Integrated LED at 2700K and 90 CRI, ELV dimmable. ETL listed and damp-rated. Available in Hand Rubbed Antique Brass. 120–277V for both residential and commercial electrical configurations.

The Pench 54 is the statement scale in the Pench family — for dining rooms where the 42-inch would look modest at the scale of the table and the room.

Designed by Kelly Wearstler for Visual Comfort Modern.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the "tapered" form and how does it look?
The Pench 54 is wider at one end and narrower at the other, creating a wedge-shaped linear form when viewed from below. This gives the chandelier a sense of movement and direction that a standard rectangular linear fixture lacks. It reads as a design decision rather than a default.

What dining table length is the Pench 54 designed for?
The 54-inch tapered form suits dining tables 8–10 feet long. For 6–8-foot tables, the Pench 42 is better proportioned.

Is it available in other finishes?
The standard offering is Hand Rubbed Antique Brass. Contact Metropolitan Decor for current availability of additional options.

Is a dimmer required for full functionality?
Yes — a compatible ELV dimmer must be purchased and installed separately for dimming. The fixture operates at full output with a standard on/off switch.
