Zaira Grand Chandelier

This is an estate-scale fixture. At ∅ 62.2″ × H 82.7″ (158 × 210 cm), it's built for grand foyers and great rooms of 40+ m² (430+ sq ft), formal dining rooms in 5,000+ sq ft residences, ballrooms, hotel lobbies, and historic-restoration projects. It needs minimum 12 ft (3.6 m) ceilings to read in proportion, ideally 15–25 ft (4.5–7.5 m) for full visual impact.

Yes. We work with interior designers, architects, hospitality groups, and estate-construction firms on specification packets, trade pricing, and project-quantity coordination. For custom finishes, voltage requirements (e.g. UK BS 110V variants for historic restorations), or matched chandelier-and-sconce sets across a project, please contact us with your specification before ordering.

The fixture ships in multiple custom-built crates with crystals individually packed for transit. Because of the size and weight (~110 kg / 242 lbs), freight delivery is required — please confirm your delivery address has appropriate access (truck approach, ceiling clearance for crates, etc.) before ordering. On-site assembly typically requires a skilled chandelier installer 4–8 hours. We can provide installation guidance documentation, but on-site installation is arranged by you.

The Zaira is built from solid cast brass — every arm, finial, rosette, and structural element is cast metal, not stamped or plated steel. Add 55 candle-arm sockets, hundreds of hand-strung crystals, and the basket-weave brass column, and the assembled weight reaches roughly 110 kg. This is why structural ceiling support and a heavy-duty fixture brace are required — standard residential boxes are not rated for this load.

Yes, with the right bulbs. Each arm takes an E12 (US) or E14 (EU) candelabra-base bulb. Install dimmable LED candle bulbs on a TRIAC wall dimmer and the entire 55-light array dims smoothly together. Warm white 2700K–3000K is essential — daylight (5000K+) will cool the brass tone and break the period-appropriate ambiance the fixture is designed for.

The Zaira draws on the chandelier traditions of 18th- and 19th-century European court lighting — French Empire under Napoleon I, Napoleon III–era Beaux-Arts revival, and the great public chandeliers of the Paris Opera, Versailles, and the European court palaces of the era. The three-tier composition with basket-weave crystal beading and cast acanthus detail is recognizable across that lineage. This is a contemporary made-to-order interpretation of that historic vocabulary, not a reproduction of any specific period piece.

Yes. As a made-to-order workshop, we can adapt finish (antique brass / polished gold / silver / custom), crystal type and color, total head count, and dimensions for project-specific requirements — particularly important for historic restoration work and bespoke estate commissions. Custom builds extend lead time; please contact us with your specification at the earliest stage of the project.
