What Size Fil de Fer Fits an NYC Apartment?

Fil de Fer size in an NYC apartment is diameter and mount, not a mood board. Specify Ø 30–100 cm here, then buy on the Fil de Fer collection. Muretti is an authorized Catellani & Smith showroom at 134 W 25th St.

Muretti is an authorized Catellani & Smith showroom at 134 W 25th St, listed by SEE Ltd. Indoor floor lamps typically $2,830–$6,600; outdoor floor $3,990–$8,000; outdoor pendant $4,380–$8,360, by diameter and aluminium versus gold. Marcin, Owner & CEO, leads the design team and does not install the fixture. Bring ceiling height and a photo of the corner or terrace to a complimentary consultation — we will not guess a 100 cm sphere into a six-foot room.

The sphere that looks modest in a factory photo can swallow a 12-foot living room or jam a passenger elevator. We specify Fil de Fer the way we specify a kitchen crate: path through the building, voltage on the order, indoor versus IP-rated outdoor. This article is that checklist. When diameter and mount are written down, you return to the collection page and open the matching product.

Which Fil de Fer diameter fits a pre-war NYC living room?

Ø 30 cm indoor floor lamps sit beside a lounge chair without dominating a pre-war living room. Ø 50–70 cm is the common loft scale. Ø 100 cm needs floor area, ceiling height, and a freight path — factory materials list the indoor 100 cm sphere around 16 kg. Confirm 100 cm in Chelsea before you order.

Gold anodized reads warmer in low evening light; natural aluminium reads cooler against pale plaster. Indoor floor SKUs use a 110–240V plug driver with a floor dimmer. They are not hanging pendants and they are not outdoor-rated. If the search was “fil de fer chandelier,” read the collection FAQ: the fixture is a woven sphere, not a crystal chandelier. Clustered gold-leaf dining pieces are Gold Moon on the Lederam vs Gold Moon guide.

Indoor floor, outdoor floor, or outdoor pendant — which SKU?

Indoor floor SKUs (F3L through F10LG) are plug-driver lamps for living rooms. Outdoor floor SKUs are terrace pieces with IP-rated, typically non-dimmable drivers. Outdoor pendant SKUs (F5SIPL and related) hang outside with a different base and cable. Do not put an indoor floor lamp on a terrace or hang it as a pendant.

Open the product page that matches the mount: indoor Fil de Fer floor lamp, outdoor floor, or outdoor pendant. Salt-air and wind — including Caribbean kitchens on service areas — still need the outdoor SKU confirmed before a deposit. Current datasheets list outdoor drivers as not dimmable; indoor floor lamps dim at the floor unit.

Will a Ø 100 cm Fil de Fer fit a typical apartment elevator?

Often it will not without a freight elevator reservation and a crate plan wider than the globe. The indoor 100 cm piece is listed around 16 kg; the crate is larger. Walk-ups and tight corridors are why we ask for building access before you pay for 100 cm. Ø 50–70 cm is what we specify most often for passenger cabs.

Italy-import lead time is typically about five to ten weeks; US stock about two to three weeks when on hand. Freight is confirmed with the SKU, not after a crate lands. If the lamp ships with an Italian kitchen project, keep one timeline for canopy, dimmer, and crate. Closet and bathroom lighting stay on those room pages; Fil de Fer here is living, gallery, or terrace light.

Should you specify aluminium or gold Fil de Fer?

Aluminium uses natural wire and a grey indoor cable; gold is anodized matt gold with a gold cable. Gold SKUs cost more on the USA list — indoor Ø 50 cm aluminium about $3,790 versus gold about $4,030 on the current sheet. Finish is selected on the product page, not mixed on one sphere.

How do you specify an authentic Fil de Fer at Muretti?

Ask for the factory order code on the quote. Indoor Ø 30 cm aluminium is F3L; gold is F3LG. Outdoor pendant Ø 50 cm aluminium is F5SIPL. If a seller will not print those codes, walk away. Muretti is listed by SEE Ltd; authorized purchase includes datasheets and after-sales. Replicas copy the photograph and skip the US driver.

When the diameter is decided, configure the SKU in the shop or book a consultation at 134 W 25th St. Call (212) 457-1355 if the destination is national or Caribbean and voltage must be written on the order. Brand context lives on Catellani & Smith lighting. This article does not replace the Fil de Fer collection URL; it is the sizing conversation that happens before checkout.

What should you bring to a Fil de Fer appointment?

Bring ceiling height, a photo of the corner or terrace, building elevator notes, and whether the space is indoor or weather-exposed. We use those four facts to pick diameter, mount, and aluminium versus gold before you pay a deposit. A complimentary consultation at 134 W 25th St is the specification point; checkout follows the SKU we confirm.

• Ceiling height and a photo of the corner, canopy, or terrace
• Passenger versus freight elevator, and crate path
• Indoor living room versus outdoor IP-rated terrace
• Destination country so 110V or 240V is written on the order
