Crystal Chandeliers in the 21st Century

Crystal Chandeliers have been reinvented to suit the most stylish and modern of homes. No longer are crystal lights only worthy of tall ceilings, grand foyers and dramatic staircases. Lights2you presents their crystal lighting range to Australia, targeting everyone and anyone living in all different types of homes with all sorts of budgets.

The evolution of chandelier stretches way back to the 1600’s when used in churches to provide light from candles, hence the word Chandelier comes from the French Chandelle, meaning candle and chandelier meaning candle holder. In the 1800’s crystal chandeliers were only found in homes of supremely wealthy and the powerful. Later in the 20^th Century Chandeliers still represented wealth and were used in foyers and Grand entries with tall ceilings. Today, in the 21^st Century people have started to hang chandeliers in the most unlikely places such as bedrooms, bathrooms and even kitchens. The latest craze, Pinterest has inspired Lights2you by countless pins of fantastic chandeliers hung in almost every room of the home.

What an exciting time for the lighting industry, people are making bold statements and embracing lights as an integral part of any room by adding style and life, just like a piece of furniture. When adding light to a particular room in a home the general rule is more is more. People are drawn to light spaces and finally now there are so many stylish options to add light to any room.

By hanging a chandelier in your home, you are not only adding a sparkling light, you are adding an artwork.

The latest trend in interior design is Crystal Chandeliers. This view of chandeliers although dated, is justified as Crystal Lights for centuries was a sign of wealth and power. Now chandeliers are readily available and there are so many different styles to suit any home.
