Finding the Right Chandeliers-pendant-lights for You
Chandeliers — simple in form, inspired by candelabras and originally made of wood or iron — first made an appearance in early churches. For those wealthy enough to afford them for their homes in the medieval period, a chandelier's suspended lights likely exuded imminent danger, as lit candles served as the light source for fixtures of the era. Things have thankfully changed since then, and antique chandeliers and pendant lights are popular in many interiors today.
While gas lighting during the late 18th century represented an upgrade for chandeliers — and gas lamps would long inspire Danish architect and pioneering modernist lighting designer Poul Henningsen — it would eventually be replaced with the familiar electric lighting of today.
The key difference between a pendant light and a chandelier is that a pendant incorporates only a single bulb into its design. Don’t mistake this for simplicity, however. An Art Deco–styled homage to Sputnik from Murano glass artisans Giovanni Dalla Fina, with handcrafted decorative elements supported by a chrome frame, is just one stunning example of the elaborate engineering that can be incorporated into every component of a chandelier. (Note: there is more than one lighting fixture that shares its name with the iconic mid-century-era satellite — see Gino Sarfatti’s design too.)
Chandeliers have evolved over time, but their classic elegance has remained unchanged.
Not only will the right chandelier prove impressive in a given room, but it can also offer a certain sense of practicality. These fixtures can easily illuminate an entire space, while their elevated position prevents them from creating glare or straining one’s eyes.
Certain materials, like glass, can complement naturally lit settings without stealing the show. Brass, on the other hand, can introduce an alluring, warm glow. While LEDs have earned a bad reputation for their perceived harsh bluish lights and a loss of brightness over their life span, the right design choices can help harness their lighting potential and create the perfect mood. A careful approach to lighting can transform your room into a peaceful and cozy nook, ideal for napping, reading or working.
For midsize spaces, a wall light or sconce can pull the room together and get the lighting job done. Perforated steel rings underneath five bands of handspun aluminum support a rich diffusion of light within Alvar Aalto's Beehive pendant light, but if you’re looking to brighten a more modest room, perhaps a minimalist solution is what you’re after. The mid-century modern furniture designer Charlotte Perriand devised her CP-1 wall lamps in the 1960s, in which a repositioning of sheet-metal plates can redirect light as needed.
The versatility and variability of these lighting staples mean that, when it comes to finding something like the perfect chandelier, you’ll never be left hanging. From the natural world-inspired designs of the Art Nouveau era to the classic beauty of Paul Ferrante's fixtures, there is a style for every room.
With designs for pendant lights and chandeliers across eras, colors and materials, you’ll never run out of options to explore on 1stDibs — shop a collection today that includes antique Art Deco chandeliers, Stilnovo chandeliers, Baccarat chandeliers and more.
Questions About Blue Glass Chandelier
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024The difference between a glass chandelier and a crystal chandelier is in the materials used to produce the light fixtures. Glass chandeliers are made of glass, a hard, brittle material made by melting together a combination of substances, such as sand, soda ash and limestone. When you add lead to these ingredients, you get crystal, a heavier material that can produce a reflective, sparkling effect when cut. Shop a diverse assortment of glass and crystal chandeliers on 1stDibs.
- What is the value of blue glass?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021The value of blue glass varies greatly depending on the condition of the glass and it may differ based on what a seller is asking for it. Reasonably priced vintage cobalt blue selections vary widely in variety and price. A single piece of blue glass may cost anywhere between $15 and $50. Visit 1stDibs for blue glass kitchenware ranging from below $1,000 to over $3,000.
- Is all blue glass cobalt?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No, not all blue glass is cobalt glass. Only those made with cobalt oxide can be called cobalt. In some pieces, the presence of copper oxide accounts for the color, however, cobalt glass is much more common. You'll find a collection of cobalt glass on 1stDibs.
- Why is Bristol glass blue?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Bristol glass gets its signature blue hue from the inclusion of cobalt oxide in the glass-making process. Bristol blue glass has been made in Bristol, England, since the 18th century and is a favorite among collectors. Find a selection of Bristol blue glass goods on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024What the glass part of a chandelier is called depends on the design of the fixture. Some chandeliers have glass covers that fit over their individual lights. These glass covers are shades. Faceted-cut glass accents on chandeliers are generally called crystals. Ones that hang down from a chandelier are pendalogues, and ones that form chains that drape over a chandelier frame are festoons or swags. On 1stDibs, explore a diverse assortment of glass and crystal chandeliers.
- Does cobalt make glass blue?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, cobalt oxide makes glass blue. Different amounts of cobalt can be used to create more saturated levels of blue or to simply neutralize yellow for a more clear finish. Copper oxide can also be used to create a blue tinted glass. Shop a collection of cobalt glass from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- How old is cobalt blue glass?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022How old cobalt glass is varies greatly. Ancient Mesopotamian examples exist from roughly 2000 BC. In China, cobalt glass became common during the Zhou Dynasty, which lasted from 1122 to 221 BC. European cobalt glass may date back to as early as the 15th century. Shop a collection of antique cobalt glass on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Cobalt blue glass is a deep blue glass that often gets its color by the addition of cobalt oxide in the molten glass mixture when the glass is being formed. The best way to identify cobalt blue glass is by the color. Shop a collection of cobalt blue glass from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022If your glass has a blue tint to it, it is likely cobalt blue glass. There are three shades of cobalt glass; dark cobalt, which has a slight purplish hue, light or cornflower blue and medium blue. To verify its authenticity, check with an appraiser. You can also shop a collection of cobalt blue glass from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
