Finding the Right Lighting for You
The right table lamp, outwardly sculptural chandelier or understated wall pendant can work wonders for your home. While we’re indebted to thinkers like Thomas Edison for critically important advancements in lighting and electricity, we’re still finding new ways to customize illumination to fit our personal spaces all these years later. A wide range of antique and vintage lighting can be found on 1stDibs.
Today, lighting designers like the self-taught Bec Brittain have used the flexible structure of LEDs to craft glamorous solutions by working with what is typically considered a harsh lighting source. By integrating glass and mirrors, reflection can be used to soften the glow from LEDs and warmly welcome light into any space.
Although contemporary innovators continue to impress, some of the classics can’t be beat.
Just as gazing at the stars allows you to glimpse the universe’s past, vintage chandeliers like those designed by Gino Sarfatti and J. & L. Lobmeyr, for example, put on a similarly stunning show, each with a rich story to tell.
As dazzling as it is, the Arco lamp, on the other hand, prioritizes functionality — it’s wholly mobile, no drilling required. Designed in 1962 by architect-product designers Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, the piece takes the traditional form of a streetlamp and creates an elegant, arching floor fixture for at-home use.
There is no shortage of modernist lighting similarly prized by collectors and casual enthusiasts alike — there are Art Deco table lamps created in a universally appreciated style, the Tripod floor lamp by T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings, Greta Magnusson Grossman's sleek and minimalist Grasshopper lamps and, of course, the wealth of mid-century experimental lighting that emerged from Italian artisans at Arredoluce, FLOS and many more are hallmarks in illumination innovation.
With decades of design evolution behind it, home lighting is no longer just practical. Crystalline shaping by designers like Gabriel Scott turns every lighting apparatus into a luxury accessory. A new installation doesn’t merely showcase a space; carefully chosen ceiling lights, table lamps and floor lamps can create a mood, spotlight a favorite piece or highlight your unique personality.
The sparkle that your space has been missing is waiting for you amid the growing collection of antique, vintage and contemporary lighting for sale on 1stDibs.
Questions About Chinoiserie Chandelier Chandelier
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Chandeliers are called chandeliers because the earliest designs were wooden fixtures that held taper candles. The name comes from the French word for candle, "chandelle." On 1stDibs, find a large collection of antique and vintage chandeliers from some of the world’s top sellers.
- 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.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 16, 2019
Chandeliers should be between half and three quarts, the width of the tabletop located below it, however, this is, of course, subject to change based on the size of the room.
- Do chandeliers have candles?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No chandeliers do not have candles but the chandelier evolved from the candelabra, which used candles as their light source. Some chandeliers have light fixtures that are designed to look very much like candles while others have moved in a modern direction and look nothing like their candelabra predecessor. Shop a collection of chandeliers and candelabras from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- What is chandelier light?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021A chandelier light is a type of candelabra lamp, meaning that it is a decorative branched suspension of lights mounted from the ceiling. A variety of antique, new and vintage chandeliers can be found on 1stDibs.
- What is an Empire chandelier?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021An Empire chandelier refers to chandeliers crafted in the Empire style. Empire style furniture resembles Louis XIV furniture in its focus on symmetry — it’s rich with ornamentation and frequently sees an integration of Greek or Roman motifs. An Empire style chandelier will add visual appeal and a sense of grandeur of any room. Shop a range of antique and vintage chandeliers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021A bobeche for chandeliers was designed to catch the wax that dripped from the candles on early fixtures. Today, they are considered to be an accent piece from which the socket, bulb and candle cover rise. Shop a range of antique and vintage chandeliers on 1stDibs.
- What are chandelier pendants?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022You’ll often see chandeliers with elaborate glass ornamentation serving as a decoration. Quite frequently these glass pendants that hang from the light are called a prism. These pieces add luxe glamour to the light fixture, while also catching illumination and scattering it. Shop iconic vintage and contemporary chandeliers from some of the world’s top boutiques on 1stDibs.
- How heavy can a chandelier be?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2019
The weight of a chandelier is dependent on the ceiling’s strength. A concrete ceiling can likely support any size chandelier because of its sturdiness, but a wooden or drywalled ceiling will not be able to support as much weight due to its more fragility.
- How can I ship a chandelier?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To ship a chandelier, you must ensure that the chandelier is held inside a sturdy crate and packed with enough cushioning material to withstand accidents. Make sure you have plenty of bubble wrap and foam held in place with strong tape. On 1stDibs, you’ll find a collection of antique and contemporary chandeliers from some of the world’s top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The significance of chandeliers is largely a matter of personal opinion. Some people associate them with the history of lighting because they marked a major breakthrough in indoor illumination. Others consider them symbols of wealth and extravagance. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of antique and vintage chandeliers.
- What is a tole chandelier?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A tole chandelier refers to a type of chandelier that is painted metal, often fashioned to look like greenery and flowers, similar to folk art. Tole chandeliers tend to have a base color of cream, white or gold that seamlessly pairs with a wide range of home décor styles. Shop a selection of vintage and contemporary chandeliers on 1stDibs.
- What is a Bohemian chandelier?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A Bohemian chandelier is one that is made with naturally occurring details like rattan, bamboo or macrame. They can be decorated with pendants like seashells and feathers as well. Add some boho-chic to your décor by shopping a collection of Bohemian chandeliers from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- What is chandelier lighting?2 Answers1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2019
A chandelier is typically suspended from a branching system with multiple lights on the ends, rather than one single light or a pair of lights hanging from a chord or chain.
1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2019Chandelier lighting is a branched, highly ornamented light fixture that is typically (suspended from) mounted on ceilings lamps.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The difference between a girandole and a chandelier comes down to where they go. A girandole is a fixture displayed on a wall or surface, while a chandelier hangs from the ceiling. Often, girandoles include wall mirrors. Both types of fixtures either hold candles or feature candle lights that hold electric bulbs. You'll find a selection of antique light fixtures on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To date chandelier crystals, hold them up to the light and look for acid marks. If you find one, use an authoritative online resource to research the mark and identify the manufacturer. You can then estimate the age based on the style of the crystal. If you can't find a mark, take the crystal to a licensed appraiser for a professional evaluation. Shop a selection of expertly vetted antique and vintage chandeliers on 1stDibs.
- Are chandeliers still in style?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024Yes, chandeliers are still in style. Although interior design trends do come and go, it's safe to say that chandeliers are generally still in style from year to year. While the word may conjure images of opulent candelabra-style fixtures adorned with crystals, there are actually many types of chandeliers that can suit different interior design styles. Among them are rustic and industrial lantern chandeliers, futuristic Sputnik chandeliers and transitional pieces topped off with light-diffusing fabric shades. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of chandeliers.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To tell how old your chandelier is, look for a maker’s mark often included somewhere on the chandelier. From there, you can research the specific company that manufactured it. Also consider the power source — candle- and gas-lit chandeliers were common until the early 1900s when electric chandeliers became popular. Even if your chandelier was upgraded to be fully electric, check for signs of the previous system. Shop a collection of vintage and contemporary chandeliers from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021A chandelier is a decorative type of lighting. Suspended from the ceiling, chandeliers direct their light upward and are typically positioned over a dining table. Incandescent light bulbs are generally used in chandeliers that give ambient light. Enhance your space today — visit 1stDibs for a wide range of chandelier options to choose from.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023What you can use in place of a chandelier depends on your goals for a given space. If you want to provide overhead illumination, try a pendant light, an island light, string lights, an arched floor lamp, a ceiling light or recessed lighting. To add interest to the ceiling, use mobile art pieces or hanging planters. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of light fixtures.
