Chandeliers, but in particular, Modern Chandeliers, can be costly. We can show you how to cut your costs.

Chandeliers are without doubt the most "Dramatic" and "Striking" of Lighting-Fixtures there is.

There are many different styles on the market - such as the delightful Mini-Crystal-Chandelier - and the price range can also differ dramatically too, but once you have had this style of fixture installed in your home, quite simply, you will never want to be without one.

Once upon a time many people`s idea of these fixtures was a large elegant affair, smothered in an array of shimmering crystals, "Sparkling like diamonds."

This used to be the case but in these modern times this type of Lighting-Fixture comes in quite a diverse range. Indoor and Outdoor-Chandelier are two further examples but Outdoor Chandeliers are far less common than the indoor variety.

From a very modest, sparsely dressed fixture, to a grand one with scores of lights and hundreds or even thousands of crystals!

If you are considering purchasing this type of fixture a good piece of advice is to also consider buying matching Wall-Lights.

The first thing that will need to match is the finish, whether it be 24 Kt Gold, which is a very popular choice, to Silver, or Chrome plated finish. There are other finishes available too such as Bronze, Antique Brass or Copper, and others.

If purchasing a Maria-Theresa styled one (for example) your Wall-Lights will need to have candles that match, as well as having similar shaped and sized crystals that are also of a similar shape.

As mentioned previously, by buying your fixtures together this should ensure that you get them for a good price. People sometimes make the mistake of buying a "sample fixture" and then will later place a further order. This can not only waste time for yourself but in the long run it may also hit your pocket.

Overall they are a superb choice and they are a fixture that once again we really could not recommend enough.

The "Largest-Chandelier-in-the-World" is said to be the fantastic piece in the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque in Oman. The AMAZING fixture has a diameter of over 8 meters and its height is an incredible 14 meters! The fixture weighs in at a staggering 8.5 tons. It is dressed in the Finest Swarovski Crystal and has 1200 Dimmable Halogen Lights.
