From classic elegance to modern style, a black chandelier is a wonderful way to add some opulence to a room in your home. Whether you choose to hang a chandelier above your dining table, or even your bed, you can rest assured that the effect will be eye catching.
A black crystal chandelier makes a focal point in any room. These beautifully crafted chandeliers feature delicate hanging black crystals beads and pendants and are exceptionally popular. It is a light fitting that would lend itself to a French Boudoir theme in a ladies bedroom. Add some fabulous satin bed covers, plush cushions, some rich patterned soft furnishings, and your bedroom would look both inviting and sensual. In the evening, you can recline on the bed and watch the shadows play with the light refracted from the sparkling crystals of your chandelier, and you could almost imagine you were a courtesan awaiting her lover.
A more modern style of crystal chandelier would be an excellent choice for a living room. Using black as your accent color, you could create a stunning minimalist space with just a hint of glamor. There are so many inspirational and eye catching designs, you are sure to find something that appeals.
A black iron chandelier hand made by craftsmen is a great choice for a room with an old fashioned feel. If your home has particularly high ceilings, a two-tier chandelier will create the perfect Gothic atmosphere. Drawing on the stylistic forms and elements from Renaissance mansions, castles and tower houses, a baronial style chandelier would look amazing suspended from a vaulted, timber ceiling. With candle bulbs burning brightly in your chandelier, plus a fire blazing merrily in a huge open hearth, you could enjoy the romantic atmosphere along with a nice bottle of Chianti.
A black glass chandelier is a variation on the crystal chandelier. Glass is the perfect material to juxtapose with light. When the sun shines across the room and catches the light of the chandelier, the light is refracted and your room will be filled with rainbows. At night, the glass mirrors the illumination from the chandelier’s bulbs and creates beautiful light patterns on the walls and ceilings.
If you prefer some subtle down lighting, many types of black chandelier lighting come with shades. This creates a completely different effect and is perfect for a more understated room. Maybe you want to hang a smaller chandelier in a guest bedroom, but still want a light fitting that looks attractive—perhaps a more modern design would suit. Black chandeliers with decorative crystals and a black shade can look stunning as a focal point to a room. Some of the smaller styles are attractive, but not too overpowering in a more compact room.
In a large room, you really are spoilt for choice. The larger the chandelier, the better—you can pick a style that is grandiose and opulent, safe in the knowledge that your room can only be enhanced by one of these fabulous black chandeliers.
