Dining Room Lighting Guide
The right lighting transforms your dining room from ordinary to extraordinary. Here's how to choose the perfect fixture for your space.
Size Matters
Your chandelier or pendant should be about half the width of your dining table. For a table like the Eliseo 84 Dining Table, a fixture 36-42 inches wide is ideal.
Height Rules
Hang your fixture 30-36 inches above the table surface. For vaulted ceilings, go higher. For intimate dining, go lower. Dimmer switches let you adjust the mood for any occasion.
Style Guide
Match your lighting to your dining set. Modern tables like the Novara Dining Set pair beautifully with linear pendants. For traditional tables, classic chandeliers work best.
Layering Light
Combine ambient lighting (overhead), task lighting (buffet lamps), and accent lighting (wall sconces) for a warm, inviting space that showcases your dining furniture.
