The hanging pendant, is for interior lighting, but I just don't know if it's okay to put in a bedroom with high ceilings. Wanted something different, and didn't know if that would be too much.

We have a ceiling fan, with lights I may add and, it looks fine. My wife is an interior decorator and does fine work.
The fan is nice to circulate the air, stale air bothers me, I have asthma. The lights when she's digging for something in the closet.

I've installed many as alternatives, in my ex wifes house even. In my opinion they are an upgrade. I don't like the flush mount ceiling fixtures anyway, and the "chandelier" type come in sooo many very upscale designs.
I'm also not much of a fan,,,(no pun intended) of ceiling fans. In my experience (I have one in every room) they are largely inefficient. AND,,, Fans don't cool rooms,,, they are designed to "cool" people. Beyond the fact that,,, in my opinion again,,, they are bulky, and offensive to have to look at.

It's your home. Do what YOU love. A chandelier would be lovely, or any other type of lighting. Just be sure it isn't so low that someone would bump their heads on it.
