Proportion & Placement Guide

Choosing the right chandelier size is not just a matter of scale — it influences the mood, the flow of the room, and the harmony of your interiors. A perfectly proportioned chandelier elevates the atmosphere, creating a sense of elegance, presence, and thoughtful design. Use the guide below to discover the size that will complement your space, enhance your dining or living area, and transform your room.

Calculate by Room Size

Measure wall to wall
Measure wall to wall

Recommended Diameter

-
centimeter
💡 Tip: Use this calculation when the chandelier hangs freely in the room. Formula: (width + length) × 8.3 = diameter in cm.

Calculate by Table Size

Measure across the table
Measure along the table

Recommended Diameter

-
centimeter (1/2 to 2/3 of width)
💡 Tip: The chandelier should be at least 30 cm smaller than the table on all sides. For long tables, two smaller chandeliers may look better.

Calculate Hanging Height

Standard is 2.4-2.7 meters

Recommended Hanging Height

-
centimeter
💡 Tip: Calculation: ceiling height × 20 cm. A 2.5 meter high ceiling gives a 50 cm hanging height.

Hanging Height Above Dining Table

Small Chandelier
55-65 cm
Medium Chandelier
57-70 cm
Large Chandelier
60-75 cm
💡 Note: For dining tables, the chandelier diameter should ideally measure ½ to ⅔ of the table width.
