Beaded Chandeliers & Pendants
The beaded chandelier is one of those iconic, vintage fixtures that helped move lighting from functional to fashionable. The roots of the beaded chandelier go all the way back to the 15th and 16th century. In the early days, hanging crystals helped diffuse the light, quickly becoming a feature sought after by the rich and elite. Dangling crystals were a status symbol, but evolved over time, incorporating new materials like wood and metal. While the decadent crystal chandeliers of the past spoke of glamour and opulence, the wooden beaded chandeliers of the past century reflect a more rustic and rural appeal. There's an antique charm to the wooden beads, making them a perfect fit for a farmhouse kitchen or coastal cottage. No matter what look you're going for, today's selection of beaded chandeliers is as vast as a jewelry store. It's time to find your statement piece.
