HOW TO CHOOSE RUSTIC CHANDELIERS FOR YOUR HOME
Rustic lighting brings a hand-hewn look to modern spaces—think wood accents, aged iron, and softly textured glass. Start by mapping where the piece will live: over a farmhouse table, in a beam-lined living room, or greeting guests in a tall entry. Then pick the frame that matches the architecture: wagon-wheel silhouettes feel timeless, round cages read farmhouse, and multi-tier designs fill large rooms without harsh glare.
Scale & height: For dining areas, aim for 1/2–2/3 of table width (or 1/2–3/4 of table length for linear bars) and hang 30–36 in above the tabletop. In walk paths, keep roughly 7 ft of clearance. If you want organic, adjustable arms, browse our branch chandelier styles; to see the broader category, explore all chandeliers. For a full cottage-to-modern mix across the home, don’t miss our Farmhouse Style Lighting Fixtures.
Finish, color & control: Bronze, aged iron, and matte black pair beautifully with oak, walnut, stone, and natural fabrics. Keep color temperature consistent—2700–3000K feels relaxed; 3500K adds a crisp edge. Use an LED-compatible dimmer for easy scene setting.
Care & next steps: Dust with a microfiber cloth and deep-clean annually; avoid harsh chemicals on wood-look finishes. For sizing examples, finish pairings, and real-home photos, read our guide: Your Complete Guide to Rustic Chandeliers.
