Product Details
The Alora Lighting Anders CH336830VB is a striking representation of refined mid-century modern design. This 30-inch chandelier features eight gracefully arched arms, each topped with a signature tapered metal shade in a rich Vintage Brass finish. The solid metal shades create a sophisticated "down-light" effect, focusing illumination onto surfaces while minimizing glare in the rest of the room. Part of the elevated Alora collection, the Anders balances bold architectural lines with a warm, luxurious metallic tone, making it an ideal statement piece for formal dining rooms, upscale kitchens, or designer living spaces.

Installation & Maintenance Tips:
- Bulb Recommendation: For the best performance, use G16.5 or B10 LED candelabra bulbs. Since the shades are metal, the bulb type won't affect the "color" of the shade, only the light on the table.
- Adjustable Drop: The unit includes three 12" rods, one 6" rod, and one 4" rod. Combine these to reach your desired height over a dining table (typically 30"-36" above the surface).
- Sloped Ceiling: The included swivel adapter allows this fixture to hang perfectly plumb on sloped or vaulted ceilings.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to maintain the Vintage Brass finish. Avoid abrasive cleaners or liquids which can strip the protective topcoat.
Common Uses/Applications:
- Dining Rooms: The 30-inch scale is perfectly suited for circular dining tables or standard 6-person rectangular tables.
- Kitchen Islands: Makes a bold architectural statement when used as a central fixture or in a pair over a large island.

- Bedrooms: Provides a focused, warm glow that creates a cozy, high-design ambiance.
Common Questions:
- Q: Does this chandelier provide any "up-light"?
- A: No. Because the tapered shades are solid metal, the light is strictly directed downward. This makes it excellent for task lighting and creating mood but may require recessed lights for general room brightness.
- Q: Is this dimmable?
- A: Yes, it is fully dimmable when paired with dimmable E12 bulbs and a compatible wall-mounted dimmer switch.
- Q: What is the minimum hanging height?
- A: With only the shortest 4" rod attached, the minimum hanging height from the ceiling to the bottom of the shades is approximately 25 inches.
The Alora Lighting Anders CH336830VB is more than a light fixture; it is a curated piece of furniture for your ceiling, bringing timeless brass warmth and focused elegance to your home.
