Standard residential boxes typically support up to 50 lb; for heavier installations a fan-rated or reinforced box may be required.

The \u003cstrong\u003e8-arm\u003c\/strong\u003e (83 cm wide) is a statement piece scaled to grand foyers, double-height entrance halls, formal dining rooms with 12-person+ tables, or any room with 10 ft+ ceilings where the fixture needs presence to balance the architecture.\u003c\/p\u003eWhat's the difference between the two finishes? +\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eFull Brass\u003c\/strong\u003e version is all warm cast brass — classical, unified, pairs with traditional palettes and gilt-frame artwork. The \u003cstrong\u003eBrass + Black Bowl\u003c\/strong\u003e version replaces the central bowl with black aluminum, creating dramatic contrast that emphasizes the cast scrollwork against the dark recessed field. Choose Full Brass for classical traditional interiors; choose Brass + Black for transitional or French-modern palettes where you want more graphic contrast.\u003c\/p\u003eWhat bulb does it take? +\u003cp\u003eEach arm takes one E12 (North America) or E14 (EU\/UK\/AU) \u003cstrong\u003ecandelabra base\u003c\/strong\u003e bulb — the smaller chandelier socket, not standard E26\/E27. Up to 25W per socket. We recommend warm white (3000K) LED candelabra bulbs in flame-tip shape for the most period-appropriate glow. The 6-arm version produces ~150W equivalent light output; the 8-arm produces ~200W equivalent. Bulbs not included.\u003c\/p\u003eWill it work on a sloped ceiling? +\u003cp\u003eThe standard mount is for flat ceilings using the included chain-and-canopy assembly. For sloped ceilings, a sloped-ceiling adapter is typically needed (sold separately by hardware suppliers). The chain-suspended structure adapts well to moderate slopes once an adapter is installed.\u003c\/p\u003eIs it dimmable? +\u003cp\u003eThe fixture itself doesn't dim, but it becomes fully dimmable when paired with dimmable LED candelabra bulbs and a standard TRIAC wall dimmer (both sold separately). Dimming this style of chandelier creates a particularly atmospheric effect — flame-tip bulbs at 30-40% brightness produce a candlelit warmth that suits formal dining settings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Retrofiendlawton","offers":[{"title":"6 heads D 75cm x H 70cm \/ ∅ 29.5″ x H 27.5″ \/ Brass \u0026 Black","offer_id":67955837665368,"sku":"RDC-150809-01","price":1447.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 heads D 83cm x H 70cm \/ ∅ 32.7″ x H 27.5″ \/ Brass \u0026 Black","offer_id":67955837698136,"sku":"RDC-150809-02","price":1968.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0720\/2642\/3384\/files\/Amelie_Grand_Chandelier_1.jpg?v=1792816635","url":"https:\/\/retrofiendlawton.com\/products\/amelie-grand-chandelier","provider":"Retro Fiend","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
