Can You Make This to Fit My 84-Inch Table?
Dear Lyfairs,
I love your leather belt chandelier, but I didn't see it listed in a size for my table. Can it be made to order to go over a table that's 84 inches long, with a ceiling height of 9 feet? I'd also need it with two ropes.

Dear friend,
Yes, to all of it. Let me walk you through it, so you can picture exactly how it will sit above your table.
The leather belt chandelier is a made-to-order piece, so we don't limit you to the sizes shown online. We can build it to suit your 84-inch table. As a general guide, a dining chandelier looks most balanced when it's about half to two-thirds the length of the table beneath it, so for an 84-inch table, we'll size it to feel right above it, generous, but never overwhelming. Tell us the width of your table too, and we'll get the proportions just right.
The two ropes are no problem at all. For a piece made long enough to suit an 84-inch table, two suspension points aren't just possible, they're the right way to do it. They carry the weight evenly and keep the whole piece hanging straight and true.
And your 9-foot ceiling is a comfortable height for this. You have plenty of room to hang it beautifully.
Here's a simple guide for where it should sit, so you can plan with confidence:
For a dining table, the bottom of the chandelier usually hangs about 30 to 36 inches above the tabletop. With your 9-foot ceiling, that leaves comfortable, open space above the light, so it feels like a centerpiece, not a low ceiling. When you order, just tell us your ceiling height and table height, and we'll set the rope length so it arrives ready to hang at the perfect drop.
So here's the short version: yes, we'll make it to order for your 84-inch table, yes to the two ropes, and your 9-foot ceiling is ideal. Send us your table's length and width, your ceiling height, and we'll design it to hang beautifully over your table, and confirm every measurement with you before we begin.
I can't wait to see this one over your table.
Yours,
Marie

P.S. — Love a chandelier but don't see it in the right size for your table? Many of our pieces are made to order, so we can build them to suit your space. For a dining table, size the chandelier to about half to two-thirds the table's length, and hang the bottom around 30 to 36 inches above the tabletop. A longer piece can be made with two ropes, for even support and a level hang. Just send us your table and ceiling measurements, and we'll get it right. This is Letters to Lyfairs.
