Linnea Tapered Alabaster Cluster Chandelier

The Linnea Tapered Alabaster Cluster Pendant gathers slim stone cones under one round brass canopy, each on its own black cord, each falling to a different height. The shades taper downward and are open at the base, so the light leaves in a defined cone onto whatever sits beneath — and because the stone is thin enough to pass light, the shade itself glows at the same time. You get a directed pool below and a lit object above it, from one piece of alabaster.

Design & Materials

The cluster is doing something a single large fixture cannot. One big shade gives you one pool of light; nine small ones give you nine, overlapping. Where they meet, the light is warmer and denser; at the edges it thins out. That is what makes a cluster feel like it was arranged rather than installed — and hanging them at staggered heights rather than level is the difference between a composition and a row.

Alabaster is a natural stone, so every piece carries its own veining and subtle variation in color. The fixture you receive may therefore differ slightly from the images shown.

Specifications

Good to Know

Should I choose the small plate or the large one?

This is the decision that matters most, because you can change the height after installation but not the plate. The 11.8″ plate holds the shades close together, so the group reads as one tall object. Choose it for a round table, a small entry, or a stair landing — anywhere you want height rather than width.The 19.7″ plate spreads the same shades apart, so each one sits on its own and the light covers more table. Over a dining table this is almost always the right answer.

What's the difference between Model A, B and C?

Model A mixes three different cone sizes in one fixture — some wider, some taller, some shorter. That is why no two drops look alike on it, and it is the most varied of the three. Model B: [__ MODEL B — describe what makes it different] Model C: [__ MODEL C — describe what makes it different]All three come on either plate size, and all three hang at the same drop. Not sure? Send us a photo of the room and we'll tell you which suits it.

Is 59″ too long a drop for my ceiling?

No — that figure is the length of cord you receive, not a height you're stuck with. Every cord shortens on its own during installation, so you can hang this tight under a 9 ft ceiling or let it fall the full length into a stairwell.Over a dining table, the lowest shade should sit 30–36″ above the tabletop — lower than feels right at first, but nobody walks under a table. Anywhere people do walk, keep 7 ft of clearance above the floor.Need more than 59″ for a tall entry or stairwell? Tell us your ceiling height when you order and we'll send extra cord.

Why don't the stone shades all match?

Because they're cut from real stone, not moulded from resin. Alabaster comes out of the ground with its own veining, and every cone is cut from a different piece.So one or two will glow noticeably warmer than the ones beside them, and none will look exactly like the photograph. On a single shade you'd never notice this — hung side by side it's the first thing you see. That's what real stone does, and a set that matched perfectly would have to be plastic.

Does it light the table, or just glow?

Both — and that's unusual. Each cone is open at the bottom, so a clean pool of light lands on the table underneath. At the same time the stone is thin enough to pass light, so the shade itself glows. Most fixtures do one or the other: a shade that lights the table but stays dark, or a glowing shade that throws nothing useful downward. Here one piece of stone does both.
