The Capri linear chandelier showcases the beauty that only nature can produce. Made from mollusks' inner lining, called mother of pearl, capiz shells form rich mosaic works of art that look equally brilliant with lights on or off. Natural toned shells pair well with Satin Nickel hardware. To size a chandelier for your dining room, foyer, or a centerpiece of a room, measure the length and width of the room and add those figures together. The sum, converted to inches, will equal the diameter that you can use as a guideline when selecting the size of your chandelier. For example: If your room is 16ft by 20ft, then 16+20=36, and the correct size for your chandelier is 36 inches diameter. When installing a chandelier above a dining or kitchen table, the chandelier should be approximately three-quarters the width of your table. The bottom of your chandelier should be approximately 30 inches above the surface of your table.
