The Sylvi Linear Alabaster Trough Chandelier is a long, shallow channel of natural alabaster — flat-bottomed, with the sides rising and the ends turning up into soft curves — held from the ceiling by two slim rods rather than a central stem. Two metal bands cross the trough at even intervals, dividing it into three visible sections and making the length readable rather than uniform.

Design & Materials
Most linear chandeliers hang from one bar and hide it behind the shade. Here the suspension is the design: two rods dropping to separate ceiling points, with nothing between them. Below, the entire trough glows along its whole length rather than sending light down from a source — so what lands on the table beneath is a continuous band of warmth instead of a row of bright spots. Sitting under it, there is nothing to look into from any angle. Built for surfaces that are longer than they are wide — a rectangular dining table, a kitchen island, a boardroom table, a long console — where a round fixture always leaves the ends dark.
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.

Good to Know
Can I hang this where my current light is?
Not directly — and this is the most important thing to know before ordering. It hangs from two slim rods fixed at two separate points on your ceiling, not one canopy. That means two holes, two fixings, and wiring run between them.
Will it fit my table?
The fixture is 39.4″ long, and the rule for a linear light is half to two-thirds of the table's length. So it suits a table of roughly 60–79″. Under 55″ it will overhang both ends and start to look like a beam across the room. Over 90″ it will light the middle and leave the ends dim — for a table that long, two fixtures end to end is the usual answer, and we're happy to advise on the gap between them.One thing it is not for: a round table. A linear light over a circle leaves two arcs unlit and two ends of the stone doing nothing.
Does the whole thing light up, or just parts of it?
The whole length. The stone glows continuously rather than sending light down from a few visible sources.That is the difference between this and a row of pendants. What lands on the table is one continuous band of warmth instead of two or three bright pools with dim gaps between them — which matters most at the ends of a long table, where a row of pendants usually runs out of light.
How low should it hang?
Over a dining table, 30–36″ from the tabletop to the bottom edge of the stone — lower than instinct suggests, but nobody walks under a table. Over a kitchen island, 30–34″ is better, since you stand rather than sit. Anywhere people walk beneath it, keep 7 ft of clearance above the floor. The fixture's own drop is 23.6″ including the rods; if that leaves it too high for your ceiling, longer rods are supplied on request.
Can I dim it?
Yes, but it has to be specified when you order. (Please contact us if you require a dimmable version.)
