The Cortina is a drum of light rather than a cluster of arms. A wide band of hand-strung K9 crystal strands hangs between two brass-toned rings, with a second ring of faceted crystal drops falling just below, all on a 32-inch frame only ___ inches tall. That low, wide proportion is the point: it gives a dining or living room a full-scale chandelier without dropping into the sightline, so it works under ordinary 8- and 9-foot ceilings where a tall tiered fixture would feel cramped.

• Style — modern crystal drum, two tiers, low profile
• Size — 32" diameter x ___" high, cables adjustable to 79"
• Lights — 14 x E12, max ___W each, bulbs not included
• Finish — gold ___ metal frame, clear K9 crystal

Room & Ceiling Fit
Made for dining rooms, living rooms and open-plan spaces with ceilings from 8 to 12 feet. It hangs on three slim steel cables that adjust up to 79 inches, so you can keep it tight to an 8-foot ceiling in a living room or bring it down over a dining table under a higher one. Over a table, keep the bottom crystals 30 to 36 inches above the tabletop; anywhere people walk underneath, keep at least 7 feet of clearance. The warm gold sits well with walnut and oak, cream upholstery, travertine and aged brass.

How to Choose Your Size

• Cortina 9-Light, 20". Round tables of 30 to 40 inches, breakfast nooks, bedrooms and entries up to about 12 x 12 feet — see the Cortina 9-Light, 20" Gold.
• Cortina 14-Light, 32" — this fixture. Dining tables of 48 to 64 inches and dining or living rooms from about 14 x 16 feet.
• Large 3-Tier, 35.8" 27-Light. Foyers and great rooms with ceilings of 12 feet and up, where you want height as well as width — see the Large Gold Crystal Chandelier 35.8".

A quick check you can run yourself: add your room's length and width in feet. If the total is 30 or more, a 32-inch fixture is the right size. Over a table, the fixture should be about half to two-thirds of the table's width — 32 inches suits a table of 48 to 64 inches.

Pairs With
Along a hallway or flanking a sideboard, the Stelo Vertical Wall Sconce, 5-Light Gold repeats the strung-crystal look on the wall in a matching gold. Where the dining room opens onto a kitchen, the Linear Crystal Chandelier 34.3", Gold covers the island in the same finish and the same 14-light output.

What's Included & Installation

At about ___ pounds this is a two-person job on a ceiling box rated to support a fixture of this weight. It hardwires and runs off your existing wall switch; dimming depends on fitting dimmable bulbs and a matched dimmer (___). Read the installation guide before you begin; wiring should be done by a licensed electrician.
