What is the minimum amount of chain I could use? I'd like to hang it from a 9' ceiling so can't have it hang any lower than 24". Would that work?

yes, you would just need to take some of the links out. I have a 12' ceiling and our handyman still had to take links out.

You can use as much or a little chain as you want, including not using any at all (although that might look a little odd). To shorten the chain, you just need to bend one of the links and remove the rest. The wire can be easily cut to what ever length you wish and stripped for wiring to a switch/plug/box.

You can cut the chain smaller to the length you prefer. The closest to the ceiling you can get is about 4 inches.

They extenders lower it about the 16". You can always use chain between the extenders and the ceiling hooks to extend it as far as you need.

The chain is made of plastic. It does not come apart, so I am not sure hanging from a shelving unit would work. unless it was like a kids locker/cubby style and had a long open compartment. But I have it hanging from my daughter's ceiling and it is only a few inches from the ground with our 8 ft ceiling.

I had my handy man hang this chandelier and it was easy to do. I am looking at it now and it looks like you could run the wire up without the chain directly into your ceiling wire connection but I do not know how the rest of the chandelier would attach to your ceiling because the small piece at the top of the chandelier where the chain comes out has no way to connect to your ceiling. I would not advise it unless you are secure in your skills to attach the top of the chandelier to your ceiling secure enough to support the weight of the fixture. I love this chandelier and would advise purchasing it. It is a unique conversation piece. I had my handy man hang this chandelier and it was easy to do.

we hung ours using about 2 feet of the chain however we had an extra 4-5 inches that was not used - works fine with a pitched ceiling too

You could theoretically link the two end chains to a central mount point but I did not personally do this. The chains should be long enough but if not you can always buy extra chain at a local hardware store.

I do not know how long the swag chain is~ as I wanted mine hung from the ceiling~ but the electrician took the chain with him~it looked quite long to me~I had to get him back~ as I found he hung it too high the first time~ can you get yours done the way I did~or maybe your ceiling is not wired for this~it is beautiful though and I got it in the pink~ Martha ~Sorry I do not have the measurements!!

Mine is hanging at 12'6" / 150". Longer is ok because you can use a piece of rope or chain as an extender. More than a few inches shorter would in my opinion cause an unacceptable amount of sag.

I think it has to be a flat ceiling b/c it has a round part that goes at the top, and the handle thingie from ceiling to pendant is straight and fixed. Does this make sense? You would ned to buy some kind of chain and ceiling mount thing. I would just buy a pendant that hangs from a chain.

It will work only if you change the chains that hold the rack. We have a 9' ceiling and we installed it and it was too high. Went to Home Depot and bought some chrome/zinc chain that was a pretty good match for the original and cut 4 pieces to proper length.

It hangs from 2 outer points. So you would have to cut 3" off each end and re drill holes where the eye hooks are for the chain. That would work I believe.

I have vaulted ceiling though not very,very tall --- however, my handyman had to cut links out --- I think they give your plenty of extra chain. If you need exact length, I would probably write to the manufacturer. As you can see my date purchased, it was some time ago so I could not tell you how many links we took out but it was more than a few.

The height given is the actual size of the chandelier. It comes with a chain that is 18 inches long. So you determine if you will need more chain due to higher ceilings. If you don't have high ceilings you should be fine

Don't recall exactly how long it is, but I have a 9' ceiling and wanted the fixture 38" from the top of the table. I ended up removing at least a foot of chain. Probably slightly more, though. If you have a 10' ceiling, it'll work just fine.

Hanging chains? Yes. Comes with 4 chains ( one for each corner ). It comes with everything you'll need to hang from the ceiling including the hooks as well.

not long enough for 14 feet. maybe you can get an electrician to add length to the hard wire and then you can add length to the chain by buying a few more feet of it at home depot or something.
