Two round chandeliers, two different looks
Both the Lily Round Chandelier and the Rhodes Chandelier are round fixtures that work well over a dining table, but they create very different atmospheres. The Lily uses iron and glass petals to evoke a blooming flower, while the Rhodes pairs a tapered torch silhouette with textured linen shades for a mid-century feel. Your choice depends on the mood you want and the practical constraints of your room.
Key specifications at a glance
- Lily Round Chandelier: 43.25" diameter; available in 8-light, 10-light, or 19-light configurations using 40-watt LED E12 bulbs. The diameter is fixed, so you choose based on how much light you need, not the fixture's footprint.
Lily Round Chandelier - Rhodes Chandelier: 48" diameter; uses eight 60-watt E12 bulbs. Slightly wider than the Lily, with a different bulb wattage that affects overall brightness.
Rhodes Chandelier
What actually differs between the two chandeliers
The most noticeable difference is the shade material. Lily's glass petals diffuse light softly and create a sculptural, floral silhouette. Rhodes' linen shades cast a warmer, more diffuse glow and give the fixture a cleaner, mid-century line. Neither is inherently better, but they suit different decor styles.
The Lily offers three light-count options (8, 10, or 19) while the Rhodes comes only as an 8-light fixture. If you need more bulbs for a larger space, the Lily's 19-light version provides significantly more illumination.
Both chandeliers have adjustable drop lengths, but the ranges differ. The Lily's smallest version drops from 27.5" to 167.5", while the Rhodes adjusts from 29.5" to 161.5". Both can handle standard and vaulted ceilings.

What the evidence doesn't tell you
The product records confirm that both chandeliers are hardwired and require professional installation, and both are rated for dry indoor locations. Neither record specifies a recommended table size or minimum ceiling height, so you'll need to measure your own space. The Lily's glass petals require some assembly upon delivery; the Rhodes includes 12 interchangeable extension rods for flexible hanging. Neither record mentions a dimmer compatibility, so if dimming is important, check with your electrician.
Which chandelier fits your dining room?
Choose the Lily Round Chandelier if you want a floral, sculptural centerpiece and prefer the option of a higher light count for a brighter room. Its glass petals create a delicate, modern look that works well in contemporary or transitional spaces.
Choose the Rhodes Chandelier if you lean toward mid-century style and prefer the warm, soft light of linen shades. Its slightly larger diameter (48") may suit a wider table, and the brass or bronze finish gives you more flexibility with existing hardware.
