Large is a 4-light bar at 47.2 inches. The rule most people use is to aim for the fixture to be between half and two thirds the length of the table, which puts Medium on a table or island of roughly 4.5 to 6 feet and Large on 6 to 8 feet. If you are between the two, size up: a fixture that reads slightly generous over a table looks intentional, one that reads small looks like an accident. The Large also gives you a fourth light, which matters if this is the only light over the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the exact dimensions?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMedium is a 3-light bar, 35.43 inches (90 cm) long and 7.87 inches (20 cm) deep.

Linen diffuses light more softly than glass or metal, so the fixture glows rather than throwing a hard edge, and what reaches the table is even and warm. Because linen is a natural fabric, small variations in weave and tone are normal and are a property of the material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow high should I hang it above the table?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAround 28 to 34 inches from the tabletop to the bottom of the shade is standard for dining. Over a kitchen island or counter, 30 to 36 inches. Lower feels more intimate, higher spreads the light more broadly. The drop adjusts up to 51.2 inches, so you set it during install.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat bulbs does it take, and are they included?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eE26 bulbs, not included, so you can pick your own brightness and colour temperature. Three for the Medium, four for the Large. Use LED: a 15W LED puts out roughly the same light as a 100W incandescent, so the Medium gives you around 300W worth over the table and the Large around 400W. For warm, comfortable light in a kitchen or dining room, look for 2700K to 3000K. The linen already softens the light, so a frosted bulb isn't necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it dimmable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, with an external dimmer switch or dimmable smart bulbs.

Linen is a natural fabric, so don't wipe it with a damp cloth or spray cleaner on it. For a mark, blot gently with a barely damp white cloth and let it dry fully before switching the light back on.
