Double-Height Staircase

Drop length is the most important measurement. A staircase chandelier should travel down through the open stairwell so it is visible from both the lower floor and the upper landing. As a general guide, the fixture should fill roughly the upper two-thirds of the open vertical space, with the bottom kept safely above head height on the stairs.

For standard two-story stairwells: Vertical-drop, cascading, or multi-tier designs work best, filling the height without crowding the staircase itself.

For spiral and curved staircases: Cascading spiral designs follow the curve of the stairs and look balanced from every step and landing.

For tall or unusually shaped stairwells: Drop length can be fully customized, so the chandelier is made to the exact height of your space rather than adapted to a standard size.

Yes. Every staircase chandelier can be customized in drop length, diameter, and finish, handcrafted to fit the exact height of your stairwell.

For spiral and curved staircases, cascading spiral designs work best — they follow the curve of the stairs and look balanced when viewed from every step and landing.

Installation usually requires scaffolding or a high-reach lift, since the fixture hangs in an open multi-floor space. We provide detailed installation specifications, weight requirements, and electrical diagrams with every shipment.

All chandeliers ship in custom-built wooden crates. Crystal pieces are individually wrapped, and we send pre-shipment photos and videos before dispatch.
