Selecting a multi-tiered alabaster chandelier requires precise dimensional clearance to anchor high-ceiling dining rooms while emitting a soft 3000K ambient glow.
JINSHE is a New York-based lighting studio specializing in hand-carved natural material fixtures for Japandi and Wabi-Sabi interiors. In grand dining rooms and double-height living spaces, off-the-shelf light fixtures can easily feel swallowed by the volume of the room. The Alabaster Cascade Tiered Chandelier features concentric tiers of hand-carved Spanish alabaster stone panels suspended by slinky brass rods, channeling warm diffused light across the room.

Genuine Spanish Alabaster vs. Acrylic Imitation
Unlike factory resin cast replicas that yellow over time, natural Spanish alabaster contains mineral veining formed over millions of years. Each hand-polished stone plaque filters glare into an ethereal glow.

|---|---|---|
| Mineral Texture | Natural translucent cloudy veins with unique crystalline depth. | Flat printed plastic pattern with no 3D depth or mineral grain. |

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: How high should a chandelier be hung above a dining table?
A: Hang the chandelier so that the lowest point is 30 to 36 inches above the surface of your dining table. This provides comfortable eye clearance while casting focused light on the table.
Q2: How heavy is a multi-tiered alabaster chandelier?
A: Genuine alabaster stone is naturally heavy (ranging from 35 lbs for 22" up to 120 lbs for 47" models). We recommend installing a heavy-duty ceiling junction box reinforced to support stone fixtures.
Q3: Can natural alabaster stone panels be replaced individually?
A: Yes, each stone panel on the Cascade Chandelier is individually secured with solid brass hardware, allowing easy panel maintenance or replacement if needed.
