Every time a scroll past this fan posting, I just think yuk, it really is awful and I don't often say that, usually I think isn't great everyone has different tastes ..but that abomination goes nowhere

Also have this one

Hi, Im after the light listed above, it is only available on the American site, any chance of be able to get it on the Aus site?

if your electrician is thinking about what they are familiar with and rules for standard chandeliers say that they need to be high enough to walk under they may need to consider rules for other type of electrical fitting: sometimes the rules are very specific to the standard understanding and don't allow for your unusual variations that may need one off rules from the authorities so, when asking about your extra long light fitting, don't call it a chandelier or people who are not familiar with your variation will base their response on what they already know... and the manufacturer of your light fitting probably intended it to be used in a stairwell but they should be able to provide instructions for proper installation in your specific situation
