Gingko Chandelier Style G

The choice follows ceiling height and the visual register you want. Model A (shallow flat, uniform 11.8" H) — for 8-9-ft residential ceilings, entryway rotundas where the fixture must not descend into head-space, restrained-composition dining rooms, powder rooms, and any interior where the drum should read as ceiling ornament rather than pendant statement. Model B (deeper drum, uniform 15.7" H) — for 9-10-ft ceilings, dining rooms where the fixture is meant to hold sculptural weight, grand foyers, and formal living rooms where deeper dimensional presence is architecturally supported. When in doubt: Model A is safer for standard residential; Model B is more memorable in rooms with generous clearance.

For round dining tables: fixture diameter should be roughly 12-18" less than the table's diameter. Ø 23.6-25.6" — 4-seat round tables (36-42" tables), small dining nooks, powder rooms, hallway accents. Ø 31.5-33.5" — 6-seat round tables (48-54" tables), entryway foyers, mid-size living rooms. Ø 39.4-41.3" — 8-seat round tables (60" tables), statement foyers, grand living rooms, boutique-restaurant private-dining. Ø 47.2" — statement dining with 66"-plus round tables, grand entryway rotundas, banquet-style foyers, hospitality reception. For rectangular dining tables, Style K, J, or H (linear compositions) are more appropriate.

All three offer round compositions in the Ginkgo Series; each serves a different specification. Vico Gingko Chandelier — round with dimensional volume (6/8/9/12-head cluster construction), reads as sculptural volumetric round; correct for residential dining rooms where the fixture should hold three-dimensional botanical presence. Style L Model B — round with vertical drop up to 118.1" H, reads as tall vertical statement; correct for double-height foyers, primary bedrooms with 10-14-ft ceilings, statement dining rooms. Style G (this fixture) — round drum-form (compressed low-profile), short 19.7" rod, entry-price residential specification; correct for standard 8-9-ft ceilings where the fixture should read as considered ceiling ornament rather than pendant statement. If you want the Ginkgo Series' entry into round chandelier at residential-friendly price and profile, the Style G is the correct specification.

The Style G is designed for standard residential ceiling heights. Minimum requirements: Model A (11.8" fixture height + 19.7" rod = ~32" total drop) — 8-ft ceilings work for entryway rotundas and living rooms; 9-ft comfortable for dining rooms with tabletop clearance. Model B (15.7" fixture height + 19.7" rod = ~35" total drop) — 9-ft ceilings minimum; 10-ft comfortable for dining and formal living. For dining tables, add 30-36 inches from tabletop to the fixture's lowest point when calculating clearance. If your ceiling is over 10 ft and you want the fixture to hang lower for architectural presence, extended rod lengths are available at no extra charge.

Yes, at no extra charge. The default is Rose Gold — a warm pink-gold register that pairs particularly well with matte-white porcelain and reads more contemporary than traditional yellow-gold finishes. Alternative finishes: Copper Gold (warmer classical register), Nickel (cool neutral), Chrome (silver-modern), White (monochrome), Gold (traditional yellow), Black (architectural contemporary).

Yes — strongly recommended for all Style G configurations, particularly the higher-bulb-count variants (10-12 G9) where full-brightness output can exceed what most residential rooms want. The included G9 LEDs are non-dimmable warm-white. Replace with dimmable G9 LEDs (widely available, $10-18 each) and install a triac-compatible wall dimmer. At 40-60% brightness, the porcelain leaves catch light at their most atmospheric register — the drum reads as botanical composition rather than as bright task illumination. For dining rooms, dimmable control is essentially required to enable evening-service and event-mode lighting.

Moderate. The ceramic leaves ship packed separately from the frame — they attach individually at installation, and because the fixture has a radial arrangement (leaves radiate outward from the circular drum), the assembly time depends on leaf count. Ø 23.6-25.6" (6 G9): 60-90 minutes, 1 licensed electrician sufficient. Ø 31.5-33.5" (8 G9): 90 min to 2 hours. Ø 39.4-41.3" (10-12 G9): 2-3 hours, 1 electrician + 1 assistant recommended for lifting the drum during installation. Ø 47.2" (12 G9): 2-3 hours, 2-person installation recommended for the larger drum. Detailed installation instructions ship with every order.

The matte-white porcelain is straightforward to maintain. Dust with a soft dry microfibre cloth or feather duster; every 3-6 months for residential dining and living rooms, quarterly for entryway installations where dust settles more readily. For accumulated residue, a lightly-damp cloth (water only) restores the finish; never use ammonia, glass cleaner, or abrasive sponges. The Rose Gold frame wipes with a dry microfibre cloth — avoid brass polish or metal cleaner (which strip the protective sealing). Because the Style G's compressed drum sits close to the ceiling with the 19.7" rod, cleaning access is easier than for taller pendant configurations.

Yes — the Style G is one of our most-specified fixtures for boutique-hospitality reception installations and residential multi-room projects because of the entry price point and residential-friendly profile. Trade pricing available; matched-batch porcelain coordination for multi-room installations (dining + foyer + living across the same property); custom frame finishes; extended rod lengths at no extra charge. Production lead times run 4-6 weeks; multi-fixture orders may extend proportionally depending on ceramic kiln capacity.
