Gingko Chandelier Style M

Start with the room's ceiling shape, not with the fixture size. Round vertical (Model A) — for double-height foyers, staircases, round or square dining tables, primary bedrooms with high ceilings. Linear vertical (Model B) — for rectangular dining tables (8-12 seats), long consoles, narrow staircase footprints. Linear horizontal (Model C) — for kitchen islands, breakfast bars, gallery-style dining rooms where the fixture spans working surface. Tall round (Model D) — for 3-story staircases and rooms where Model A would read too diffuse; higher leaf density. Flagship (Model E) — hotel lobbies, atrium spaces, restaurant flagship rooms; requires 15-ft-plus ceilings. Choose the shape first, then size within the model to fit the space.

Ceiling requirements by model: Model A — 9 ft (smallest 31.5"⌀) to 14 ft (largest 59"⌀ × 137.8" drop). Model B — 9 ft (smallest) to 14 ft (largest 59.1" × 118.1"). Model C horizontal — 9 ft minimum for all sizes; less vertical demand than the drop models. Model D — 12 ft (smallest 31.4"⌀) to 15 ft (largest at 118"H). Model E flagship — 15-ft-plus recommended (fixture is 118.1" / almost 10 ft tall alone). For dining tables, add 30-36 inches from tabletop to the fixture's lowest point when calculating clearance. For foyers and staircases, minimum 7 ft from floor to fixture bottom. If unsure, write to us with your ceiling height and room dimensions before ordering.

Yes, at no extra charge. The default is Rose Gold — a warm pink-gold register that reads more contemporary than traditional yellow-gold and pairs particularly well with the matte-white porcelain. Alternative finishes available: Copper Gold (warmer classical), Nickel (cool neutral), Chrome (silver-modern), White (monochrome), Gold (traditional yellow), Black (architectural contemporary). Specify the choice by adding a note at checkout or writing to support@stuberlighting.com within 24 hours of order placement. Custom finishes beyond this list may be available on request for hospitality-scale projects.

The Style M spans an unusual price range because it spans an unusual scale range — the smallest Model A (Dia 31.5") is a mid-size residential chandelier, while the Model E flagship (137.8" × 118.1") is a commercial-scale architectural installation. What determines price: the leaf count (each leaf is individually hand-shaped and hand-glazed), the frame scale (larger frames use more Rose Gold metal and require more assembly labour), and the shipping complexity (larger models ship in more crates with more careful transit handling). The Model E flagship uses approximately 12× the material of the smallest Model A and requires 2-person installation. If you're comparing configurations, look at the shape first and the price second; the price scales with the physical scope of the fixture.

Yes — strongly recommended for all Style M configurations, particularly the larger models where 30-100+ bulbs produce substantial output at full brightness. The included LEDs are non-dimmable warm-white. Replace with dimmable G9 or E12 LEDs (matching the socket type of your specific configuration) and install a triac-compatible wall dimmer. At 40-60% brightness, the porcelain leaves catch light at their most atmospheric — the fixture reads as botanical composition rather than as bright ceiling illumination. For hospitality installations, dimmable control is essentially required to enable evening-service and event-mode lighting.

All configurations ship with ceramic petals packed separately from the frame for safe transit — assembly happens at installation. Small-medium (Model A/B/C): 60-90 minutes total, 1 licensed electrician sufficient. Model D XL (Dia 47.2" × H 118"): 2-3 hours, 1-2 licensed installers recommended, junction-box weight verification required. Model E flagship: 4-6 hours, 2-person installation required, ceiling-load structural verification strongly recommended. For hospitality-scale orders, we can coordinate with your project's contractor for scheduled multi-fixture installations. Write to support@stuberlighting.com with your project brief.

The matte-white porcelain is straightforward to maintain but scale matters — the Model E flagship has 400+ leaves, and cleaning takes time. For all configurations: dust with a soft dry microfibre cloth or feather duster; every 3-6 months for residential, monthly for hospitality high-traffic. 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. For commercial-scale fixtures, we can coordinate with hospitality maintenance contractors on cleaning schedules and recommended tools.

Both are Ginkgo Series chandeliers with hand-crafted porcelain leaves; the two products serve different scale ranges. Vico Gingko Chandelier — residential chandelier scale, 6-12 head configurations, 23.6"-38.5" diameter, three-material composition (bone porcelain + H65 copper + frosted glass shades), correct for standard-height residential dining rooms and bedrooms with 9-ft-plus ceilings. Style M (this fixture) — architectural chandelier scale, 5 model shapes across 15 configurations, 31.5"-137.8" scale range, all-ceramic-leaf composition without glass shades, Rose Gold framing, correct for double-height foyers, oversized dining rooms, hospitality applications, and any interior where ceiling volume exceeds standard residential scale. If your ceiling is 9-10 ft and residential, the Vico is the correct specification; if your ceiling is 12-ft-plus or hospitality-scale, the Style M is the architectural choice.

Yes — the Model E flagship and the larger Model A/D configurations are our primary specifications for boutique hospitality, atrium spaces, restaurant flagship rooms, retail showroom feature installations, and hospitality projects specifying botanical mid-century as design vocabulary. Available: custom frame finishes, matched-batch porcelain coordination across multi-fixture installations, extended wire lengths for atrium applications, and interior-designer trade pricing. Multi-week production lead times are standard — plan installation timing accordingly. Write to support@stuberlighting.com with your project brief: application type, ceiling height, quantity, timeline, and any finish or scale customisation requirements.
