Newhomebuilder, If your chandelier is 35" off that table, that is higher (off the table) than the norm. My sister has cathedral ceilings in her LR & DR, and her chandelier is about 30" off the table. I think hers would look much better higher. Like you. she has the option of going much higher due to the ceiling height. I think I am going to try and raise mine up a little tomorrow, another link or two and try it out. I already like it much better since I raised it from 27" off the table to 30" off the table. Chelone, In our kitchen we have a ceiling fan and light over the table. We only operate the light from the pull chain, and have an extension chain on the light chain so that we can reach it from a sitting position. We try and do as much as we can for comfort! Joann

Depending on the length of your table I'm seeing two to three lights such as: http://www.shopcandelabra.com/palecek-grenada-hanging-pendant http://www.palecek.com/products/241479/L/03/WISTERIA-OVERSIZED-PENDANT-WHITE-WASH http://www.palecek.com/products/200579/L/03/EVERLY-PENDANT https://www.1800lighting.com/Kichler-Lighting/Brisbane/item.cfm?itemsku=43892DBKhttp://www.palecek.com/products/242179/L/03/LAYLA-CHANDELIER
