I just received my order for 2 lamps: Designers Fountain Stratton Transitional Chandelier - DF-98086-WM and Designers Fountain Stratton Transitional Inverted Pendant Light - DF-98031-WM. I opened the inverted pendant light box (DF-98031-WM) and found that the hanging chain was only 3 ft or less. The electrical wire was at least 12 ft. I need a 6 ft chain to install. I looked around at Home Depot to find a chain, but I couldn’t find anything even close to the color/style. I haven’t opened the other chandelier box (DF 98086-WM) yet, as I’m afraid that the chain may also be too short. Can you let me know if you can send me a longer chain (6 ft) that matches my lighting fixtures?

Answer: Designers Fountains default chain length is 3′ with 10′ of wire. In order to order more chain, you have to call in. The chain model number is CHNWML8G and the cost per foot is $2.97 plus $5 shipping and handling. Please advise back either by phone or email with the requested amount of chain. You can link the additional chain to the existing chain you have.

What does the category “Transitional” in chandeliers mean?

I am planning on purchasing this Designers Fountain Alhambra Traditional Chandelier - DF-9189-NI in the very near future.

Hi. I am disabled and looking for a crystal chandelier that I can operate by a pull chain (like with some ceiling fans). Do you know of any? Or are they all operated by a light switch?

A way you can search for such a chandelier is maybe through www.google.com. You can search “pull chain crystal chandelier”, to see if you can find the item you are looking for.
