A chandelier is an object to be admired, and adds a touch of elegance and radiance to a room. In the past you would only see such an elaborate lighting fixture in a stately home, mansion or large hall, however these days they are very much in demand and you can find some exquisite modern designs that will look great in any style of home.
A chandelier adds a soft glow to a room, and is a particularly effective way to light what is more often than not, just a plain old room. The great thing about chandeliers is that you can practically hang them anywhere you like and the comments of admiration are guaranteed to flow in. Hang them in the hall so they are the first thing visitors see when entering the house, position them over the dining room table for special family meals, in the main bedroom for a touch of luxury, or hang them in the bathroom for a touch of decadence.
Modern, traditional, transitional, antique, whatever your taste there is something unique and charming about these types of lighting fixtures. Modern chandeliers come in all shapes and sizes, so whether your house is large and spacious with high ceilings, or small and cosy you are guaranteed to find a solution to your lighting needs. If you think your home would benefit from a chandelier but don't know where to start, then do some research online and you'll soon be inspired.
Before you start looking around, have a general idea of just what it is you are looking for. The architectural style of your home is just as important as the decor, and your own tastes and budget must be taken into consideration before making a purchase. Selecting the right size is essential, if it's too large it will overwhelm the space, too small and the room will swallow it up.
Polished silver and gold chrome with hanging crystal pendants are popular combinations with homeowners, check out the Emily Polished Chrome Crystal Chandelier, with its dazzling crystal hanging pendants and skillfully crafted frame, a perfect focus for any room. Or the contemporary style Small Faceted Ceiling Light, also with crystals but with a round frame it's available in polished chrome or gold finish.
For a bit of colour then take a look at the wonderful Swan Chandelier designed by skilled Italian craftsmen and featuring 24 beautifully crafted swan necked arms. Constructed from metal and then finished with the latest plasma plating technology, it's available in white, black, chrome, brass and even 24 carat gold.
For true elegance there's the Murano Glass Chandelier, a luxury Italian made item it boasts 9 lights and is entirely hand made, its glass blown bowl is of the finest Murano glass and it has a chromed metal frame. Available in crystal, milky white or red, it is stunning in every colour. Or how about the Asfour Crystal Pendant Chandelier? A funky suspension mounted pendant light with stainless steel frame it has a triplex hand-made blown Murano glass ring and transparent crystal pendants made with Asfour crystal, this is a beautiful piece of art as well as a stunning modern chandelier.
Really the type of chandelier you choose depends on your own personal taste and the budget available, however this shouldn't stop you from getting a product you like. There are lots of funky, modern designs that are sure to catch your eye but a classic design may be more appropriate as it will look good for years to come, even if you decide to change the wallpaper or furnishings in the room. You don't want to have a chandelier that looks dated after just a few years use.
