Chandeliers are timeless, but modern takes on this classic have inspired a resurgence in this most elegant of light forms being incorporated into homes of all styles.
It is believed that the first hanging candelabras were wooden structures holding candles to light the home. The date of the first candelabra is debatable, but they have long been a symbol of status and wealth, evolving into eye-catching droplets of glass and crystal swirling around a brass frame. With the introduction of electric light, chandeliers were elevated to a new level as designs became more ornate and functionality improved.
Crystal chandeliers are perhaps the most well known variation of this popular form of lighting and the design variations are endless. Typically suspended by a chain, almost any number of arms extend from a brass or glass frame and flame-shaped bulbs are surrounded by strands of glass or crystal.
