The chandelier was a find. At Lynn Hammerschmidt's suggestion, we looked for ideas at a lighting store here in town. A 5 light, one level version of this fixture was on display. We got the info, and since the Hammerschmidt team works with this store regularly, they kindly loaned us manufacturer's catalogs to check out more.
In the catalog, we found two more versions, both bigger. To figure out which one was right for the semi-vaulted ceiling in the great room, Lynn kindly mocked up a version out of a discarded box. Now, mind, she seemed to enjoy it, mentioning that it was like an arts-and-crafts project from grade school.
The mock up made a big difference. We immediately picked this bigger fixture. And when it got hung earlier this month (boy, was it only in the past week?) it fit perfectly. Just like the rest of the house.
