Chandeliers are normally associated with those dramatic crystal-laden pendants you find in ballrooms and manors. They're pretty fabulous - I have one in my bedroom! But the chandelier has taken all sorts of forms, with quirky and edgy designs coming into play. A chandelier really just means a decorative hanging light with branches for several light bulbs. I love the modern take of the chandelier, particularly those that use unexpected materials (check out the bike chain in the attached images). I also like the idea of mixing old with new, such as placing a traditional-looking chandelier in a modern space, or vice-versa. No matter how you choose to use it, one thing's for certain - a chandelier in any form commands attention and will certainly bring a little drama to an otherwise dull space.
