How to Order a Sputnik

STEP 1 - Choose a model & finish

Our available finishes are Raw Brass, Satin Brass, Chrome and Powder Coated Rubbed Bronze. The Raw Brass finish is unsealed and will develop a patina over time.

STEP 2 - Decide on a total drop

Our Sputnik Chandeliers include a downrod with a hang straight swivel and ceiling canopy. Included in the price is any custom drop up to 24". Any drop over 24" will incur a $2/inch surcharge. Please note that the total drop is the measurement from the ceiling to the lowest point of the chandelier. We will try to accomodate you drop as close as possible.

STEP 3 - Choose your bulbs

All of our Sputniks are made with Candelabra (E12) base sockets. They include G12 (1 1/2" diameter) Clear or White bulbs. You can choose between 10 watt, 15 watt, 20 watt bulbs. For 7.5 watt Starlight bulbs ADD $1.50/bulb (based on your lamp). We also recommend installing a high quality dimmer switch.

ADDITIONAL BULBS AVAILABLE - A box of 25 standard G12 clear or white bulbs is $20; Starlight bulbs are available for a SPECIAL SALE PRICE of $2.50 each (min quantity 18).

For ceilings with a greater than 15 degree slope, and all 42" & 57" model Sputniks,
