Multiple pendant lamps: buying guide

Please give a value to translate

A lamp for every need: when it comes to lighting our home, it's important to choose the right chandeliers not only based on aesthetics, but also according to the function they need to fulfill.

Multi-arm chandeliers allow you to furnish a space with light: let's discover together which one to choose based on your requirements and how you intend to use it.

Illuminate your dining table.

The dining room or kitchen island are places where we gather to spend time with loved ones and share a meal.

Here are our suggestions for a well-lit dining table:

Choose directional lighting using shades to create beams of light directed on the table.
Place the chandelier in the middle of the table to avoid casting shadows on the guests' faces and to illuminate the dishes you serve them.
Use a fabric cable to hang the chandelier at a height between 70 and 90 cm from the table top to protect your eyes from the light.
Choose warm-toned light that makes food more appetizing. Bulbs with 3000 Kelvin are perfect for apartments and to make a good impression at the table!

Extra tip: If you like directional lights such as spotlights, the Tub-E14 metal lampshade will be perfect for creating a multiple pendant lamp with straight arms to place in the center of a rectangular table and create a contemporary look.

Illuminate several points

Do you want a chandelier for your living room that illuminates all areas using a single light source?

The best way to achieve this is to opt for a Spider, which is a multiple pendant lamp that includes a decentralization kit. This way, you can configure your chandelier according to your needs by spreading the arms over a large surface and positioning them at the necessary height to illuminate each specific area.

You can create the Spider model by choosing:

a multi-hole ceiling rose or an XL ceiling rose where the number of holes corresponds to the number of arms of your chandelier
the color and length of the cables, adapting them to your needs
a decentralization kit for each cable to be fixed to the ceiling to suspend the different arms at the height of your choice
if you want to complement your Spider with visible light bulbs or with a series of lampshades

Extra tip. Give your Spider the shape that best represents your personal style! It is not necessary for the arms to be regular and symmetrical as each space is different. Have fun playing with cable guides and decentralization kits to draw with the cables on the ceiling and create the lighting that best represents you.

Light up an entire room

If you need a chandelier for your bedroom or living room, you will need one that will illuminate the room uniformly.

Some tips for choosing the right ceiling light for your needs:

Choose a multiple pendant lamp with visible light bulbs, where the light sources are of a single color and not covered, for a more diffused and brighter lighting
If you prefer a softer and dimmer light, opt for a chandelier with lampshades that will help you create a more welcoming and relaxed atmosphere
To visually occupy the space, it is ideal to choose a cluster lamp, composed of many small customizable arms according to your needs.

Extra tip: If you are unsure about the size of the chandelier to buy, trust "Brighten Your Lantern", our free advisory service that allows you to receive assistance from our architects in designing the lighting for your home.

Illuminate a staircase.

Are you looking for a designer chandelier for the staircase of your loft? Or do you want to improve the one in your condominium?

Each staircase is different, which is why it is important (much more than in other rooms) to follow a few tips to better illuminate them:

Take advantage of the height by creating a chandelier with custom textile cables to evenly distribute the light between the floors and thus secure each step.
Ensure that the lights are easy to replace, even though with LED bulbs you may have to wait for years before doing so, safety comes first!
Prefer visible light bulbs or cage-shaped lampshades that will create a brighter and more diffused light.

Extra tip: The staircase is where you can have fun creating truly unique and original lamps by mixing cable lengths and colors, as well as bulb shapes and sizes. Our Customer Service will be happy to help you create the lighting you desire and guide you in choosing every detail.
