At ∅ 39.4″ × H 35.4″ (100 × 90 cm) with 5 lights, the Payson is well-scaled for dining rooms of 16–25 m² seating 6–10, kitchen islands of 6–8 ft, primary bedrooms of 18–28 m², and foyers up to 22 m². Minimum 9 ft (2.7 m) ceilings; ideally 10–12 ft for the chandelier to hang at proper height above a dining table or island without crowding the room.

Yes — the Payson is a studio original, designed and made in our workshop rather than adapted from a third-party reference. Studio originals are pieces we develop ourselves to fill a specific design need we identified — in this case, a transitional ring chandelier that pairs the architectural discipline of an antique-brass armature with the warmth of natural alabaster. We're proud of this fixture and offer it with our standard customization options for residential and hospitality projects.

No. Each ribbed cylinder is hand-cut from a fresh block of Aragón alabaster, so cloud veining patterns, color depth, and translucency vary piece to piece. Within a single Payson, the five cylinders are matched in tone for visual cohesion across the ring. Between separate orders, some natural variation between fixtures is expected. The photograph shows representative character; your fixture will be unique.

Each fixture is made to order. The 35-day production window covers cutting and polishing the five ribbed alabaster cylinders from fresh blocks of Aragón stone, casting and hand-finishing the antique brass armature and ring, integrating the LED system, full assembly, quality check, and protective packing. Custom finish options or non-default dimming protocols may extend this timeline — please contact us before ordering if your project has a specific deadline.

The default integrated LED is non-dimmable warm white (3000K). TRIAC-dimmable and 0–10V-dimmable versions are available as custom builds — please contact us before ordering and specify your preferred dimming protocol so we ship the right variant. For an explanation of the difference between TRIAC and 0–10V dimming and which one suits your installation, see our technical guide on dimming protocols. Custom builds may extend the 35-day lead time.

The horizontal ribbing serves both aesthetic and functional purposes. Aesthetically, the banding catches light unevenly across the cylinder face — the rings glow brighter and the recesses sit slightly darker, which accentuates the cloud-like veining of the alabaster and gives the cylinders a more sculptural read than smooth surfaces. Functionally, the rib pattern adds structural integrity to the alabaster wall and slightly increases surface area for heat dissipation from the integrated LED.

Yes — this is a hospitality-grade fixture. The integrated LED, 3000K default, and customizable dimming protocols make it well-suited to luxury hotel suites, restaurant private dining rooms, and high-end boutique commercial spaces. For project-quantity orders we coordinate matched veining tone within batches, dimming protocol, finish specification, and lead times directly. Please contact us with your project specification at the earliest stage.
