how many inches across is the plate that attaches to the ceiling? I want to know what diameter of a ceiling medallion I should buy.

Where it touches the ceiling is about 4-1/2", then it drops down about an inch and that circle is about 5". I bought a ceiling medallion for ours, but our house is 100 years old and the wire in the ceiling was too short...my man didn't want to deal with it. Needless to say I have a beautiful ceiling medallion painted silver I have no use for. I'm envious of you.....the medallion will look beautiful with this. Still love this light, it's incredible! Thanks for asking because when I climbed on the stepladder I saw my beautiful light had some cobwebs...oops. Good luck.

The diameter looks to be 5 1/2 to 6 inches. We have a medallion around ours also.

I installed this ceiling medallion with Power Grab by Loctite it instantly grabs and holds, also it drys clear so if any gets around the edge you will never notice it. It's been a year and it's still up and looking great. Good luck!

It is best to take the fan canopy and fit it to the medallion while it is on the table or floor, to determine size. Make sure everything fits first. This medallion is designed to be painted, and is thin plastic. Take the time to make it look cool.

Hi Shecky, I just took some pics but Amazon won't let me upload so I will have to tell you exactly. The lengthwise measurement for my plate is 5 1/4 in. the small screws begin apprroximately 1/4 in down and over to the corners. The width is 2 1/2 inches. I applied them to limestone rock so the were predrilled with tiny holes. What I used in addition to that was some Loktite-available at any hardward store to secure the plate. Love it, still looks beautiful and works great.

I purchased a 14" medallion from Home Depot. I think it's the perfect size, but I don't think a 16" would be too large. I'm not sure what the previous answer is referring to, because this chandelier does not come with a ceiling medallion.

my lamp hangs 14" from top plate to bottom. you can shorten the chain mine only has 2 links because i wanted lamp close to ceiling. i don't remember how long total chain was. this is a great lamp.

This is a beautiful medallion and should be fine for your chandelier. However, because the size is measured from point to point it will not seem as large when it is installed as some other 28 inch medallions. So if your room is large you may want to go slightly bigger.

I shortened the chain but I would think about 4'. Their is an escutcheon included but an architectural medallion like plate is not. I did swag the fixture over to a header to center the light over my dining table from the j-box. The Crystals are glass. The shade is fabric. I did install it upside down because there were no directions. I am going to do some more lighting remodel in my house and at that time I'll fix that goof. It is really a nice fixture. Its not to big or small. I have an old house and works well with it.

It is a standard ceiling box. I believe 4". I put a medallion around mine no problem

Measure the short side and buy the hangers with the higher number that's closest to the short side length of you plates... i.e if you plates are 7" x 10" you should buy the 4" to 7" plate hanger. The snugger the fit...the more secure your plate(s) will be. Hope that helps! Joe @ Readsome

The diameter of the ceiling plate cover is 5 inches. I love my light fixture!

The base plate is about 4-1/2" diameter. Covers a 4" ceiling box with a strong 1/4" lap.

Hi- the chain that comes with this is about 2.5- 3FT long (we cut the chain to only 4 lengths to hang over our kitchen island and it works/ looks perfect).There is a metal rod/ hook [this is displayed in the picture] that attaches to the orb and then to the chain- this rod measures about 8 inches.Hope this helps!By the way, it is a WONDERFUL light fixture! Worth every penny! We removed the dangly crystal ball and it looks very similar to a Restoration Hardware piece- just a fraction of the price.

I'm not an expert, but I really believe it will work with a standard ceiling fan. As long as the diameter of the part of the fan that fits flush on the ceiling is not larger than the diameter of the hole in the middle of the ceiling medallion, it will work. The base of the ceiling fan I have is smaller than the center hole of the medallion. I took pics of my medallion, but I don't see an option of sending a pic with my answer. Sorry.

The cover plate that goes up against the ceiling is exactly 5 inches across (diameter) on mine.

Good Lord, tons of answers with no actual answers! "YES" does not help the question "how big is the receiver" !!! I know this is late but you need about 1.25" of depth between your ceiling and the opening base of your ceiling fan frame and roughly 5" of width side to side within that mounting area for the ceiling mount cover to fit over. Any less than this and your looking to customize the ceiling mount or mount the receiver outside the base altogether! Im still laughing at the answers here, LOL! Like everyone has the same fan!
