As a general rule, pendants should hang 4-8 inches below an 8-foot ceiling. For each additional foot of ceiling height, add 3 cm. For example, in kitchens with a 9-foot ceiling, the hanger should hang 15-23 inches below it.

How big should a hanging lamp above a kitchen island be? Typically, kitchen pendant lights (at their lowest point) are hung about 12 inches to 14 inches above the counter. You should take the total measurement from the floor. That means up to the bottom of the hanging lamp. The ideal height is about 69 to 72 cm from the floor to the base of the hanger.
