Chandeliers & Suspension Lighting

Chandeliers are more than just a source of light, they define your space and serve as a focal point. Whereas chandeliers were once typically seen as extravagances for traditional homes, chandeliers of all styles are popping up in homes around the world today. More versatile than they were in the past, chandeliers are now also found in any room.

A chandelier makes a beautiful, classic entryway light that gives family and friends and immediate first impression. Dining room chandeliers provide an intimate setting, perfect for dinner parties and other gatherings. Chandeliers with shades create a warm and inviting atmosphere, especially when dimmed. You can even place a chandelier in your kitchen, bedroom or bathroom. Anything goes!

Before you settle on any particular fixture, take the dimensions of the space into consideration. Chandeliers are usually sized by diameter, height and/or the number of bulbs they have. Most rooms will accept a four- to six-light chandelier, and larger rooms may accommodate a two- or three-tiered fixture, depending on ceiling height. If you aren't sure if your favorite chandelier will be balanced within a given room, use our Chandelier Size Calculator to help determine the size that's right for you.

What is the definition of a modern chandelier?
- - Modern or black chandeliers serve as a focal point for the room in which they are installed and define the space. They are more versatile than traditional chandeliers, which were once seen as extravagances for traditional homes. Modern chandeliers are available in countless styles and finishes, including modern crystal chandeliers, modern farmhouse chandeliers, and LED chandeliers, and are installed in kitchens, bedrooms, bathrooms, and more.
How do I choose a modern chandelier?
- - Choosing a modern chandelier involves considering several factors, including the style, size, light output, type of light source, and dimming options. Modern chandeliers come in a variety of designs, materials, and finishes. For a modern look, focus on satin nickel, black, or chrome finishes, and look for clean lines with minimal ornate decoration. When choosing a modern chandelier, consider the dimensions of the space as well as the chandelier's diameter, height, and number of bulbs. Most rooms will accept a four- to six-light chandelier, and larger rooms may accommodate a two- or three-tiered fixture, depending on ceiling height. Visit our Chandelier Size Calculator to help determine the right size for your space.
How do I choose a chandelier shape?
- - The shape of your chandelier should complement the shape of your table. A chandelier, pendant/suspension, or non-linear multi-pendant light fixture makes sense over a round table. A linear suspension or linear multi-pendant light fixture is a great fit over a rectangular table. A kitchen island pendants is a popular choice in many modern homes.
How do I choose a living room chandelier?
- - When choosing a living room chandelier, consider the style and ambience you want to create. You should also take into account whether the chandelier will be the main lighting source in the room, or if it will be a complement to recessed ceiling lighting. Today's chandeliers come in a variety of styles, from traditional to modern to contemporary.
What are the rules for buying chandeliers?
- - There are no hard and fast rules for chandeliers, but there are some guidelines to follow. Consider the dimensions of the space as well as the diameter and height of the chandelier and the number of bulbs it has. The size and shape of your chandelier should be proportional and complementary to your table. Chandeliers work best as a supplementary light source, and even better when incorporated into a layered lighting scheme.
