Multi-head chandelier can provide sufficient light source, with a wider lighting range and better effect, suitable for long dining tables or large round dining tables;

Like multi-head chandelier, it is suitable for long dining tables or large round dining tables and restaurants with larger spaces. It can provide sufficient light source and have a good effect on the color of food.

Style

If the dining room has other light sources such as downlights and spotlights as auxiliary lighting, you can choose a non-transparent style. The light can be focused on the food, and the highlighting effect is the best.
If the dining room has only one light position, the chandelier needs to choose a transparent material translucent lampshade, which can both focus light downward and allow appropriate light transmission, so that the dining room will not appear dim.
