The chandelier is called a crowning glory and rightly so! It can do a lot for your home. It is an absolute blend of form and function. Not only does it illuminate a room, it also provides an interesting design element. It has a rich history that dates back to medieval times. Initially, it was a construction of crossed wooden beams that had upright spikes to hold candles. However, with the passage of time, it has evolved and developed into a beautifully-designed creation.

When selecting a chandelier, it is crucial to understand the importance of proportion. You are spoilt for choice with the wide range that is available to suit every budget and taste. No matter what the size and style of the chandelier, it contributes to the overall ambience of the living space. The light emitting from it exudes warmth and sophistication. So just get creative with your use of chandeliers. You can look beyond the foyer and the dining room when it comes to mounting it. It is equally at home in a living room, bedroom or even bathroom!

There is a false notion that a chandelier has to match the style of your home. You can mix different styles of chandeliers and make it work for your home. But do remember to stick to one metal family. Choose the right size of chandelier as it can make your room look big or small according to its size. You have got to consider the width and height of the space available before buying one. You can try experimenting with multiple chandeliers over a long dinner table. Remember that the taller the ceiling, the larger the chandelier. For ceilings that are nine feet or higher, opt for a multi-tiered chandelier. An appropriately portioned chandelier in the right place can add a touch of unexpected drama.

If you have a chandelier that is out-dated, don't shy away from giving it a makeover. You can put a coat of spray paint for a modern finish or try a colour that is bold or funky. Replacing the chandelier's shade can change its overall look as well.

You can increase the allure of your home with proper illumination. While lamps may serve a practical purpose, Tiffany lamps serve a decorative purpose as well. They add an air of splendour and elegance to any room that they are placed in.

It has been more than 100 years since their invention but they are timeless pieces that are here to stay. They are one-of-a-kind pieces that look stunning in any décor. They often flaunt unusual shapes and beautiful colours that are not found in typical lamp shades.

The intention of Louis Comfort Tiffany, the creator of the Tiffany lamp, was not just to light up a place but to add beauty to it as well. What makes Tiffany lamps charming is that they were developed during the age of mass production and at a time when industrialization was at its peak. Due to their manufacturing process, all Tiffany lamps had different colours and unique illumination patterns. They were developed using innovative glassmaking techniques where certain metallic compounds were added to molten glass for a unique iridescent sheen. As many as seven colours were added to hot glass so that one piece would possess multiple hues without any need for painting. Copper foil was used to fuse the stained glass pieces together.

These Tiffany lamps consist of seven different design categories that gleam like jewels and throw brilliant shards of light wherever they are placed. They are divided into irregular lower and upper borders, cone and globe categories that you can choose from. Nautilus Seashell, Lotus leaf, Spider Web, Peacock Feather and Wisteria are few of their designs that prove that there is no limit to imagination.

You can also use them on your bedside table, on the floor or in your study. From intricately and beautifully cut pale pastels, to rich, deep coloured hues, you will be totally spoilt for choice!
