I have a recessed light in my formal dining room. Can I use this chandelier in it's place?

It is possible, but you would need a kit to change the recess lighting to a standard before this light would be able to be hung.

Sure. Mine are in recessed ceiling fixtures and work fine. Keep in mind this type of light produces like one-tenth the heat of an old-fashioned incandescent bulb. That's why it is so energy-efficient- minimal energy lost as heat.

Yes you can. My brother has one installed in a room and uses it for that purpose. You need to be careful with how high the ceiling is.

Without knowing how much room and depth you have to place the light, yes, the light will light it up; no sweat. You'll have to play the "light placement" game. Hope it works out.

As it comes, the chandelier must be hard wired into a ceiling electrical box. I imagine with more wire and chain it could be changed to a swag/plug into socket fixture.

I don't see why not, it's wired like any other ceiling light fixture. You will need a dimmer switch.

Hi, Julie. It's hard for me to figure out because I bought the chandelier for our daughter who lives in another state. She put it in her bedroom... it looks stunning and adds beautiful sparkle to the whole room. I think it would be lovely over a long table. If I were you, I would do as Debbie suggested and hang something over the table that is comparable in size to see what you think.

We put the light in our bedroom, only 8 ' high ceilings. I took a large amount of chain off. I think there was enough chain for you put it lower over a table. I enjoy the light. I guess you could always return it if it is NOT long enough for a high ceiling dining room. Good luck.

Oh yes you certainly can...I added a light fixture to mine and I'm very glad I did!

I think it would be too small for a foyer. There is a lamp with 6 lights which might fit better.

Definitely. I have this fixture in my closet on a slanted ceiling. It's really pretty.

I don't think so - I love this chandelier it is elegant without being pretentious I put a dimmer switch on mine and looks very pretty dimly lit

Yes you can. We have it in a ceiling Tiffany glass fixture that is so dark most bulbs would not give enough light. The bulb is big, so it hangs down below the glass and does a good job of lighting the room. The bulb is very bright!

It gives off adequate light in the bedroom (12x12)we have it in. Not sure it would be enough in a large formal dining or living room area. Hope it helps.

I have it in a 12x12 room and it has a large window, so it puts off good light. But if the room was much bigger I would think it wouldn't do for single source light. I am in love tho with this chandelier!

You would have to have a shroud big enough to fit the light. Other than that, I can see no reason why this wouldn't work as a recessed light. That being said you would have to have a pretty substantial sized shroud. I know in my backyard, they are not recessed.

It depends on how big your living room is. Our ceiling where we have our chandelier are 10 foot. We have our chandelier in our den and it's a beautiful chandelier it's big and it fits perfectly in there so if you have a very high ceilings and a very large formal living room it might not be as dramatic as to what you may be looking for.
