How close to the ceiling can this be hung? I don't want to use the 2' of chain it comes with...is that possible?

You can hang it as close as you want - I removed a bunch of links from the chain with pliers, and have it hanging about 5 or 6 inches from the ceiling. But you could even leave just a couple chain links and have it almost right up against the ceiling.For aesthetics, you can also trim down the power cord so that there's not a lot of slack hanging over the chandelier. Unfortunately there's not a lot of space in the dome for all the extra cord, so if you're hanging close the ceiling, you will most likely have to trim the cord. The downside to cutting the cord is that if you ever want to hang the chandelier lower, you might not have enough cord length remaining, so just keep that in mind.

You can cut the chain smaller to the length you prefer. The closest to the ceiling you can get is about 4 inches.

The dimensions of the frame are 18 in. by 24 inches. When installing it, it may be hung at any height from the ceiling. Plenty of chain was supplied so I was able to hang it from my 10 foot ceiling with no modifications (I was concerned I might have to acquire additional chain from a hardware store, but this was not necessary). If you have the more common 8 foot ceiling you will probably have more chain than you need.

You could extend it with chains easily. One end of the chain would hook to the loop coming out of the ceiling, and the other end of the chain would hook through the hole on the top of the pot rack. I could recommend getting black chain at a hardware store; silver chain would be too shiny.

It hangs from 2 outer points. So you would have to cut 3" off each end and re drill holes where the eye hooks are for the chain. That would work I believe.

Hi, The chain is long 36 inches, the wire is long 72 inches. I think it's not enough long to hang over the desk. You have 2 solutions to solve the problem. You can ask an electrician to install it and he will be able to add more chain and wire OR why you don't take in consideration to buy a table lamp same model, 2 bulbs and pull chains switch ? Thank you

They extenders lower it about the 16". You can always use chain between the extenders and the ceiling hooks to extend it as far as you need.

It actually hangs about 25 1/2 inches down without extra chain. We didn't add the lowest hanging peice- as it went down way too low. It looks GORGEOUS!

If you close mount it, maybe.I mounted with the extention provided and its 20 " inches off ceiling and 28 inches to bottom of pull chains. I would not recommend it for an 8 foot ceiling in any which way-

I bought mine just about the same time as Gregory R, and got only two 2' flimsy chains with S-hooks on each end. No possibility of hanging as the picture shows unless only 1 foot from the ceiling. There are three attachment holes on each end of the top of the fixture, two obviously intended for hanging as shown, and the other for hanging with only a single chain.

I hung mine flush mount and it extends 18" down and an additional 10" for the longer chain. Use a yard stick and see how that distance will work for you. Mine is over my kitchen table. I hope this helps.

The chain is made of plastic. It does not come apart, so I am not sure hanging from a shelving unit would work. unless it was like a kids locker/cubby style and had a long open compartment. But I have it hanging from my daughter's ceiling and it is only a few inches from the ground with our 8 ft ceiling.

Don, I don't know. I have 12 foot high ceilings and the pendants hang about 4 feet above the counter-top of our kitchen island. Thinking about it, I might have checked for an extension but did not. I think you'll have to ask Quoizel.

You will have to purchase longer chain to suit your ceiling. We have a 12 foot ceiling.

No it connects to the ceiling with a bracket that the light twists on to. There would be no way to add a chain to it.

it has a canopy to cover the elec.. box in ceiling you will need at least a small section of the chain to hang the fixture ... fixture comes with about 5 feet of chain for swagging .. :) you could use 1 link of the chain ... but i know you need at least one link...

I don't know exactly how long the chain was, but we needed to remove about a foot of chain to make it hang about 5'5" from the floor from our 10 foot ceiling. Hope that helps.

I bought a similar chain (25-ft length) from Lowes then spray painted to match the color. It worked out perfect for our 20-ft ceiling.
