Product Details
The Kuzco Aries CH76728-BK is a celestial-inspired statement piece that brings an "out of this world" aesthetic to modern interiors. This 28-inch chandelier features three "gyroscope-like" spheres, each housing a floating frosted glass orb encased within a larger, clear acrylic globe. The matte black finish provides a sharp, architectural contrast to the ethereal light sources. With fully adjustable cables, the Aries allows you to customize the height and arrangement of the spheres, creating a dynamic light sculpture that serves as the perfect focal point for foyers, dining rooms, or contemporary living spaces.
Key Features:
- Celestial Design: A unique multi-sphere arrangement that mimics planetary or orbital forms for a futuristic yet elegant look.
- Dual-Layered Optics: Inner frosted glass globes provide soft, diffused light, while the external clear acrylic spheres add depth and a modern protective layer.
- Omnidirectional Light: The spherical design casts light in all directions (Up/Down/Ambient), filling the room with a warm, even glow.
- Highly Adjustable: Each sphere is suspended by a 120-inch adjustable black wire, allowing for cascading, clustered, or staggered configurations.
- CEC Title 24 Compliant: Meets high-efficacy standards (JA8-2022), making it an environmentally conscious and code-compliant choice for new construction.

Common Questions:

- A: While the wires hang vertically, the "gyroscope" design allows the internal glass accents to be adjusted within their acrylic housings for optimal light positioning.
- Q: Is this fixture bright enough for a kitchen?
- A: With nearly 2800 delivered lumens, it provides excellent ambient light, but you may want supplemental under-cabinet lighting for specific food prep tasks.
- Q: What is the minimum hanging height?
- A: The minimum recommended hanging height is 24 inches from the ceiling to the bottom of the lowest sphere.
