   Chandelier Cupola or Canopy

 The chandelier's canopy or cupola is shown above

 The canopy covers the electrical wires and the receptacle box in the ceiling

 The receptacle box is usually 3-3/4" octagon shape and is attached to the

 framing

 The canopy is attached to the treaded rod where the wires come out of the

 receptacle box

 The canopy does NOT go through to hole of the medallion rather it sits

 on the surface of the medallion

 The medallion may have a flat area around the hole or it may have a design

 You can select a medallion with a center flat area slightly larger than the

 diameter of the canopy or you can put the canopy directly to the decorative

 motif on the medallion covering part of the pattern. Since it is high up it is

 unlikely to be noticed. 

 For deep medallions you will need to acquire a longer threaded rod

 or extender to attach the connector
