Product Details
The Alora Lighting Alonso CH320050UB is an architectural masterpiece designed for grand-scale interiors. Measuring an impressive 50 inches in diameter, this multi-tier chandelier features 18 light points arranged in a sophisticated, staggered configuration. The "Urban Bronze" finish provides a rich, dark metallic tone that anchors large rooms with a sense of strength and luxury. Drawing inspiration from classic candelabra forms but updated with sleek, clean lines, the Alonso is the ultimate centerpiece for high-ceilinged great rooms, grand foyers, and expansive dining halls.
Key Features:

- Urban Bronze Finish: A deep, matte-toned bronze that offers a warm, sophisticated alternative to standard black, working beautifully in transitional and industrial-chic settings.
- Architectural Symmetry: The precision-engineered arms create a balanced, geometric silhouette that remains elegant from every viewing angle.

Installation & Maintenance Tips:
- Structural Support: Given the 50-inch diameter and substantial weight (approx. 27 lbs), ensure your ceiling junction box is properly braced and rated for heavy fixtures.
- Bulb Selection: For a modern look, use clear LED filament candelabra bulbs. To reduce energy consumption while maintaining high brightness, choose 4W-6W LEDs (40W-60W equivalent).
- Sloped Ceilings: The canopy features a swivel joint, making it compatible with vaulted or sloped ceilings up to 45 degrees.
- Cleaning: Maintain the Urban Bronze finish by dusting with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid chemical cleaners that may react with the metallic finish.

- Commercial Lobbies: Provides a professional, upscale aesthetic for hotel reception areas or luxury office suites.
Common Questions:
- Q: Is this chandelier dimmable?
- A: Yes, it is fully dimmable when used with dimmable E12 bulbs and a compatible wall dimmer switch.
- Q: Does it come with shades?
- A: No, the Alonso features an "open bulb" design for a clean, architectural look. For a softer effect, consider using frosted or "opal" finish bulbs.
- Q: Can I use this in a room with a standard 8-foot ceiling?
- A: It is not recommended for 8-foot ceilings. With a fixture height of 27" plus a minimum of 6" of stem, the bottom would hang too low for standard walking clearance. This is best suited for 10-foot ceilings or higher.
