Improving Your Decor With Crystal Chandeliers

Crystal chandeliers have come a long way from the bulky, out of date lighting that they used to be. Thanks to innovative designs, contemporary chandeliers are more streamlined, smaller in size, and have a more modern feel while still maintaining the luxurious look and feel that you want.

Before you invest in a chandelier, be absolutely sure that one will be right for your home. If the rest of your furniture is contemporary, then a chandelier made of exquisitely cut crystals may not be the best choice. Take a picture of the room with you when shopping.

It makes it easier to compare them with contemporary chandeliers, hanging lamps, or even Tiffany shades, which is another popular design option. If you find that crystal chandeliers are too fussy for your home, then consider a wrought iron or brass chandelier. Both types can come in incredibly intricate designs that are ornate enough to give you the rich feel you're looking for.

Many people often forget to coordinate metals when choosing a chandelier. For example, a brass chandelier will look hideous if placed above a table that has pewter accents.

If you have other furniture in the room with metal, then make sure that it matches your lighting fixtures. You can mix and match metallic accessories like vases and frames, but it's best to coordinate crystal chandeliers with elegance.
