Where the Audra Grande Pendant works in the house

Kitchen islands and breakfast bars. Hang them in a row centered on the island, with the bottom of each shade 30–36 inches above the counter. Space the centers to suit the island length so the row ends short of the overhang.

Dining tables and banquettes. Two or three over a table read as a set; keep the line centered and the lowest point about 30–36 inches above the top.

Bedsides, offices and entries. Singles or pairs replace table lamps beside a bed and free the nightstand, or mark a small entry or reading nook.

Room planner: size, height and placement

The numbers below come from the manufacturer's specifications and our own placement rules, worked out for the Audra Grande Pendant.

• Over an island or counter: bottom of the pendant 30–36" above the surface
• How many for your island: 6 ft island: 3; 8 ft island: 4; 10 ft island: 4 (about 24" between centers, 6" or more in from each end)
• Over a dining table: hang two or three in a row along the table, 30–36" above the top
• 8 ft ceiling, 36" counter: overall drop about 24–30"
• 9 ft ceiling, 36" counter: overall drop about 36–42"
• 10 ft ceiling, 36" counter: overall drop about 48–54"
• Hall, stair or walk-through: keep at least 7 ft from the floor to the bottom of the pendant
• On a sloped ceiling: Sloped ceilings up to 45°

Ceiling and table figures are our calculation for standard room dimensions, so measure your space. Have a licensed electrician install hardwired fixtures.

Pulling the room together

Keep the pendant row on its own dimmer and add recessed or under-cabinet light for tasks. Match the metal to the cabinet pulls or faucet and let the counter stools carry the second material.

For commercial and multi-unit projects

For cafés, bars, hotel lobbies and restaurant counters, repeat the same pendant at a fixed pitch along the bar and specify one finish and one drop height across the whole run. We can total up quantities and spacing for your plan.

Care, cleaning and upkeep

The lamp is replaceable: it takes a standard bi-pin (12V, built-in transformer) lamp. Clean crystal or glass with a soft, lint-free cloth, power off and cool; avoid ammonia and abrasive cleaners (our advice). Dust the frame with a dry microfiber cloth, power off. Installation is hardwired, so use a licensed electrician.
