Alabaster Link Pendant Light

Yes – the product photos show a two-point swag option, where the chain anchors at a second ceiling plate and loops across before dropping down to the shade. This is useful if your electrical box isn't positioned exactly where you want the light to hang, such as over the centre of a nightstand that sits off from the ceiling fixing. Ask us whether the swag hardware is included or needs to be requested separately.

They're gathered rather than spread out. Based on the collection's own reference images, the chains bunch near one or two ceiling points and fan outward, with each cylinder settling at a slightly different height rather than hanging level in a row. So a 5 or 9-head order reads as one cascading cluster rather than that many fixtures dotted separately across your ceiling – plan for a single concentrated fixture area.

It's the mounting, not the cylinder itself. Model B runs on two ceiling points: one chain drops straight down to the shade, while a second chain angles in from a separate plate off to the side, meeting it partway down. Model A mounts from a single central point instead. If your ceiling only has one convenient fixing spot, or you'd rather not deal with a second plate, Model A is the simpler install.

Yes – it takes a standard E27 bulb that's designed to be replaceable, unlike an integrated LED fixture where the whole unit needs servicing. Just make sure the power is off at the switch before changing it, since it's a hardwired fixture rather than a plug-in lamp.

The listing doesn't specify the chain length or whether it's adjustable, so don't assume you can trim it yourself without checking first. A link chain like this can often be shortened by removing links during installation, but it's worth confirming with us or your electrician before you commit to a specific drop height.

The listing specifies a black body finish but doesn't name the exact black tone (matte, satin, or a warmer black-bronze), so if you're matching it precisely to existing black hardware elsewhere in the room, it's worth asking us for a close-up photo or a finish sample before ordering multiples.

Switch it off and let it cool, then steady the cylinder gently with one hand while wiping the chain links from top to bottom with a soft, dry cloth in the other – working down the chain rather than side to side keeps it from swinging and knocking against the stone shade below.
