I am looking for a plugin only swag light - nothing that needs to be anchored with a plate to the ceiling. How exactly does this light hang?

It is anchored to the ceiling. You have to already have a "hanging lamp" fixture on the ceiling to make this work...and even then...we had to make some modifications. But...it is beautiful!

I bought the table lamp, but it also comes as a swag light that, I think, just hangs from a hook and plugs into an electrical outlet.

I bought the lamp that was on a stand.. a table top style. .Most swag lamps hang by hooks screwed into the cell studs..hope this helps. .

Depends! Is fixture on floor or just hanging from its cord. If you don't want to make holes on wall, you can use Velcro to attach fixture to wall.

The light can hang down from the ceiling as low or as high as you would like. There are three extension pieces of different sizes: You can use one or you can use them all. I don't have the exact dimensions of the pieces but I used only a combination of two of them and it worked perfect for us. I hope I answered your question! Good luck.

I have my light hanging from the internal metal frame. Have the adjustable hanging straps. Works good.

It comes with a ceiling mount that has a small chain but I don't remember how long the chain was. I changed it to a plug in and put a white chain on it, I didn't like the black one that came with it.

It would need a wall mount with a swivel ball for the light to hang straight down. Personally, I am so pleased with these lights that I would go to a hardware or lighting store and try to find a swivel base if I needed to hang them on a sloped ceiling. Good Luck!

The way I installed was I cut a very precise hole for the light and the spring mechanism is what holds it tight in the ceiling. I put mine in the wall and is holding tight still.Hope this helps.

It has a tripod to put on a flat surface (this is how we use it) and it also has a bracket that I think can be attached to the ceiling. however, the way that lights its diffused it may not look that well if installed from the ceiling. overall, we are very happy with this purchase.

this light can be hung from either.....the style of this lighting will still hang straight

... it doesn't come with any plug or hangar - I used it to replace an existing hanging lamp so was able to use the cord/chain/hangar from that one - I guess they expect this lamp to be installed by a "qualified electrician" - hard-wired - I'm not one, but it was fairly simple to do myself.

Okay J - Thank you so much! I am a visual learner and I had no idea how those metal things attach/clip, whatever and if it is hanging from the ceiling already, I guess it's not for support, but just to: Raise The Curtain if you will. Got it. Thanks

It has a mount that screws into a wall or wood surface. You can then slide the light fixture into the mount. You also have the option to use the velcro it comes it. However, I would avoid the velcro as it eventually comes undone.

not directly to the ceiling, you will have to use one chain loop to mount the fixture to the plate

It is a chain. Like most chandelier-type fixtures, it has a round base that attaches to the ceiling and a chain that holds the light -- in this case, the metal orb. I would describe the chain as medium-weight -- not flimsy but not really heavy either. The wiring runs up along side of the chain -- visible but not at all objectionable. I love this light in my home. It is sturdy, well-made, easy to install and looks great.

I hung it from a hook in ceiling. Really easy to hang :). Used for a bday party and now hanging in playroom ... Could possibly hang in a doorway or anywhere you can screw in a hook.

The mounting options are numerous. The mounting bracket is a right angle, full length bracket with two key holes on each side of the bracket (4 holes total). The light also has two screw holes so it can be mounted directly. I mounted mine under the sink in cramped space, so I just screwed the bracket directly to my cabinet and snapped the light into the bracket. Worked great. It also comes with 3m two sided tape.

If you want it to actually light up, you'll have to buy a Light cord. (Plug in for an outlet on one end, light socket on the other. To hang it I just got a little hook to screw into the ceiling. I got both at Walmart really cheap
