Aveline Tiered Clouds Glass Chandelier

The craftsmanshipThe Art Glass DifferenceWhy hand-cast art glass beats molded glass & resin, the many shapes our artisans create, and how to spot the real thing. ▦ Material comparison ✦ One craft, many shapes 🔍 Spot genuine glass Open 01 · Material Comparison Hand-cast art glass vs. molded glass vs. resin Three materials look similar in a thumbnail — but live very differently on your wall. Here's how our hand-cast art glass compares. Our Hand-Cast Art Glass Molded / Pressed Glass Resin / Acrylic Imitation How it's made Hand-cast & shaped by artisans, one piece at a time Machine-pressed in a fixed mold, mass-produced Liquid resin poured into a mold, mass-produced Texture & pattern Unique crackle texture — no two tubes alike Identical, repeating pattern on every unit Flat, "printed-on" look; texture feels superficial Light quality Deep, layered glow; light refracts through real glass Even but flat; little depth or movement Dull, slightly cloudy; can look plasticky when lit Feel & weight Substantial, cool, solid in the hand Solid but uniform Noticeably light, warm, hollow-feeling Color over time Color is in the glass — won't fade or yellow Stable color Can yellow or cloud with heat & UV over time Heat tolerance High — glass handles bulb heat well High Lower — can warp or discolor near heat Character A one-of-a-kind work of glass art A functional, uniform fixture A budget look-alike The takeaway: hand-cast art glass costs more to make, but it's the only one that gives you genuine depth of light, individual character, and lasting color — the qualities that make a fixture feel like art rather than hardware. 02 · Forms & Shapes One craft, many shapes Every piece begins the same way — molten glass, hand-cast and shaped by our artisans. From that single craft comes a whole family of forms, each catching and releasing light in its own way.

Here's how to tell the difference once it's in your home — every point below describes our fixtures. 1 Pick it up Real glass is cool and substantial. Resin feels warm, light, and hollow. Our tubes have real weight — many customers say the heavy box was their first clue it's genuine. 2 Look at the texture Hand-cast crackle texture has true depth you can feel with a fingertip. Resin texture looks like it's printed on a flat surface. 3 Turn on the light Glass refracts light into a layered, moving glow. Resin tends to look flat, dull, or slightly cloudy when lit. 4 Compare two pieces No two hand-cast tubes are exactly identical. If every piece looks machine-perfect and matched, it's molded — not artisan glass. Our promise: every fixture is genuine hand-cast art glass. Slight variation between pieces isn't a flaw — it's proof it was made by hand. Not one shade wrapped around a frame. A collection of separate panels that never quite closes. The Aveline Tiered Frosted Glass Chandelier is built from flat glass panels clipped individually to a brass ring, arranged in two overlapping rows — the upper tier stepping back, the lower one carrying the weight and closing the bottom. Each panel is frosted through with a cloudy, mottled texture rather than sandblasted evenly, so no two catch the light the same way and none of them is fully opaque. The result reads as a drum from across a room and as a wall of individual pieces from directly beneath. Most drum chandeliers wrap a single continuous shade around a frame. This one does the opposite: it stays a collection of separate parts that never quite closes. Light escapes through the gaps between panels as much as through the glass itself, so the fixture has vertical seams of brightness running through it and never flattens into one even glow. The bottom row curves inward to a small brass finial, closing the base so the bulbs stay hidden from below — the practical reason this works over a dining table rather than only in a hallway. Suspended on four brass chains from a central point, in a warm brass finish against cloudy white glass. 1 Light Escapes Between the Panels, Not Just Through ThemNothing here is joined or sealed. Each panel hangs on its own clip, so light comes out through the gaps as well as the glass — and the fixture carries vertical seams of brightness instead of flattening into one even wash the way a continuous drum shade does. 2 The Base Is Closed — No Bulb Shows From BelowThe lower row curves inward and finishes at a small metal finial. Most panelled chandeliers leave the bottom open, which is fine in a hallway and uncomfortable over a table. Here there is no angle from underneath where you see a filament — the practical reason this belongs above a dining table. 3 Every Panel Catches Light DifferentlyThe cloud texture is dense in some places and almost clear in others, so no two panels read the same. Lit, the drum becomes a field of small differences rather than one bright object. Because the texture is within the glass, there is no coating to scratch off an edge. 4 Clipped On, So One Panel Can Be ReplacedEach piece is held by its own clip rather than set into a sealed frame. A single damaged panel is unclipped and swapped on its own — not a 31-inch fixture going back with freight both ways. Dimensions & Placement ∅ 31.5″ × H 10.2″ ∅ 80 × H 26 cm · fixture body only Over a Dining TableWhere the closed base earns its keep. At 31.5″ across it suits a round table of 48–60″ or a rectangular one 40–48″ wide. Hang the lowest point 30–36″ (75–90 cm) above the tabletop. Entry or Living RoomCeilings from 9 ft (2.7 m). Because the body is only 10.2″ deep, the drop is set by how much chain you leave — not by the fixture. Keep 7 ft (2.1 m) of clearance anywhere people walk beneath it. Bedroom or LandingThe closed base and soft panelled light suit a room you wind down in. Over a bed, centre it and keep it well above head height — there is no reason to hang it low when the glow is this diffuse. Where It Must Not GoIndoor, dry locations only. Not a bathroom, not above a bath or shower, not a covered porch. Also think twice about a kitchen — open panel gaps and cooking grease are a poor combination. Hanging Tip The four chains gather to a single suspension point above the fixture, so the height is set by shortening one chain rather than balancing four. That is a ten-minute job instead of an afternoon of levelling. Over a dining table, hang the lowest point 30–36″ above the tabletop — lower than feels right at first, but nobody walks under a table. Anywhere people do walk, keep 7 ft above the floor. If you need more chain than we supply for a taller ceiling, tell us your ceiling height when you order.

Our email: support@korewolamp.com What Makes It Special 01 A Shade That Never Quite Closes A drum shade is a wall — one continuous surface wrapped around a frame, sealed at both seams, and the light leaving it has passed through the same material at the same thickness everywhere. That is why most drum fixtures give you one even, characterless glow. Aveline is assembled the other way round: not a shade at all, but a collection of separate panels, each clipped to the ring on its own. Nothing is joined and nothing is sealed, so light escapes between the panels as much as through them — and the fixture carries vertical seams of brightness where the pieces meet, rather than flattening into a single wash. 02 Cloud, Through the Thickness The swirled, mottled quality is within the glass rather than sprayed onto it — which has two consequences. It cannot scratch off an edge or wear thin over the years, the way a surface frosting does. And because the density varies from one part of a panel to the next, every panel is dense in some places and almost clear in others, so no two catch the light the same way. Lit, the drum reads as a field of small differences rather than one bright object — closer to a wall of ice than to a lampshade. 03 Wide, Shallow, and Closed at the Base Two decisions that decide where this fixture can live. At 31.5″ across but only 10.2″ deep, it is a shallow drum — a tiered piece the same width would hang two feet into the room before any chain was added, while this one leaves the ceiling requirement to the chain. And the lower tier curves inward and closes on a small finial, so there is no angle from underneath where a bulb shows. Together they are why it works over a dining table on a standard ceiling, rather than needing a stairwell to justify it.

One continuous surface wrapped around a frame, sealed at both seams, and the light leaving it has passed through the same material at the same thickness everywhere. That is why most drum fixtures give you one even, characterless glow — the shade was built to be uniform, and uniform is exactly what you get. Aveline is assembled the other way round. It is not a shade at all but a collection of separate panels, each clipped individually to a gold ring and hung in two overlapping rows. Nothing is joined. Nothing is sealed. Which means light escapes between the panels as much as through them — so the fixture carries vertical seams of brightness where the pieces meet, and never flattens into a single wash. The glass refuses to be uniform either. Its cloudy, swirled texture runs through the thickness rather than across the surface, so every panel is dense in some places and almost clear in others, and each one catches the light its own way. Lit, the drum reads as a field of small differences rather than one bright object — closer to a wall of ice than to a lampshade. And because the texture is within the material, there is nothing on the surface to scratch off an edge. What holds it together is the one part that is completely regular: a gold ring, gold clips, and four chains gathering to a single point. Hard metal geometry carrying soft irregular glass. At the base the lower row curves inward and closes on a small finial — the piece of restraint that lets you sit beneath it at a table and look straight up without finding a bulb. Seams of Light Light comes out between the panels as well as through them — vertical lines of brightness that a sealed shade cannot produce. No Two Panels Alike The cloud runs through the glass, dense in places and near-clear in others. Every panel takes the light differently. Closed at the Base The lower row turns inward to a finial. Sit under it at a table, look up, and there is no filament to find. Held, not enclosed. Questions, Answered Before You Order Whether it fits your ceiling, what the light looks like, and why the panels don't match. 01It's 31.5″ wide — is my ceiling high enough? Almost certainly, and this is the thing most people get wrong about it. Width and drop are two different questions. The fixture itself is only 10.2″ deep — a shallow drum, not a tiered chandelier. A tiered piece the same width would hang two feet into the room before you added any chain. Here, how far it comes down is decided by how much chain you leave, not by the fixture. So it works on a standard 9 ft ceiling, and on a taller one you simply leave more chain. Tell us your ceiling height when you order if you need extra. 02Will I see the bulbs when I'm sitting under it? No. The lower row of panels curves inward and closes at a small finial, so the base is shut rather than open. That matters more than it sounds. Most panelled chandeliers leave the bottom open — fine in a hallway you walk through, uncomfortable over a table where people sit and look up all evening. Here there's no angle from underneath where a filament shows. 03Is it too big for my table? At 31.5″ across it suits a round table of 48–60″ or a rectangular one 40–48″ wide. The usual guide is about half the table's width. Not sure? Cut a paper circle at 31.5″ and lay it on the table. Two minutes, and it settles the question better than any photograph. 04Why do the glass panels look different from each other? Because the cloudy texture runs through the thickness of the glass rather than across its surface. Every panel is dense in some places and nearly clear in others, so no two catch the light the same way. That variation is the design rather than a fault — lit, the drum reads as a field of small differences instead of one flat glowing object. It also means there's no coating to scratch off an edge or wear thin over the years. 05What are the bright lines between the panels? Light escaping through the gaps. Each panel is clipped on separately rather than sealed into a continuous shade, so light comes out between the pieces as well as through them. Those vertical seams of brightness are what stop the fixture flattening into one even wash — a sealed drum shade can't produce them. 06What bulbs does it take? Small candle bulbs — E12 in the US and Canada, E14 in Europe and most of Asia. Bulbs are not included. Choose LED in warm white, around 2700K, and use the same bulb throughout. Cool white light through frosted glass turns grey and drains the warmth out of the gold — it's the quickest way to make an expensive fixture look cheap. 07Can I dim it? Yes, with dimmable bulbs on a compatible dimmer switch. Ordinary bulbs won't dim whatever switch you fit — that's the usual reason people think a new light is faulty. Fit dimmable bulbs in every socket, not just some, and add up their total wattage to check your dimmer is rated for it. 08How do I get the height right? Easier than most chandeliers this size. The four chains gather to a single point above the fixture, so you set the height by shortening one chain rather than balancing four. A ten-minute job instead of an afternoon of levelling. Over a dining table, hang the lowest point 30–36″ above the tabletop — lower than feels right at first, but nobody walks under a table. Anywhere people do walk, keep 7 ft of clearance above the floor. 09Will my ceiling hold it? Check before ordering. A 31-inch fixture full of glass panels is genuinely heavy, and all of it hangs from one point. Your electrician should confirm the ceiling box is rated for the weight and fixed into the structure above — a standard box carries far less than most people assume, and a fixture this size often needs a brace fitted first. Ask us for the exact weight and pass it on. 10What if a panel breaks? That panel is replaced on its own. Each one is held by its own clip rather than set into a sealed frame, so a single damaged piece never means returning a 31-inch fixture — which would mean freight both ways and weeks with a bare ceiling. If anything arrives damaged, send us photos within 24 hours of delivery and we'll replace the affected panels. After that we keep spares and can send them at any time. 11How do I clean it? Switch off, let the bulbs cool, then wipe each panel with a soft cloth, barely damp, followed by a dry one. Work from the top row downward so dust falls away from what you've already done. Once or twice a year is plenty. One thing worth knowing before you buy: this isn't a kitchen fixture. Open gaps between panels and cooking grease are a poor combination, and grease that settles into the gaps doesn't come out with dusting. 12Can I put it in a bathroom? No — this is an indoor fixture for dry rooms only, with no protection against water or steam. Dining rooms, entries, living rooms and bedrooms are all fine. Send us your ceiling height and table size and we'll confirm the chain length before it ships.
