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Chandeliers — simple in form, inspired by candelabras and originally made of wood or iron — first made an appearance in early churches.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 Metal Ring Chandelier
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024To tell the metal of a ring, examine the interior for purity markings. Researching the markings using trusted online resources can help you identify the material. For example, “925” indicates sterling silver, while “750” represents 18-karat gold. If you can't find purity markings or have difficulty reading them, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable jeweler can help you identify materials. Explore a wide variety of rings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 12, 2023Yes, you can mix metals for wedding rings. You're free to choose whatever rings you wish as your bridal jewelry, so you can pair an engagement ring made from one metal with a wedding band produced out of a different one. There are also wedding rings that have a mix of precious metals, like white and yellow gold stripes or a platinum band with a gemstone framed by a yellow gold setting. Explore a wide range of wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023Tungsten is the strongest metal for wedding rings due to its scratch resistance. However, the metal's hardness makes rings crafted out of tungsten nearly impossible to resize. Other strong metals for wedding rings include titanium, platinum, palladium, stainless steel and cobalt. On 1stDibs, find a large collection of wedding rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023No, wedding and engagement rings don't have to be the same metal. You're free to mix and match rings however you see fit. For a unified look, you can pair rings made of metal in a similar color like white gold and platinum. Or, create contrast with different colors, such as yellow gold and rose gold. Shop a variety of wedding rings and engagement rings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023The hardest metal for wedding rings is tungsten carbide. Its hardness is such that it ranks just below diamonds, making it incredibly durable but also difficult for jewelry makers to work with. As a result, the styles of tungsten rings are limited. Other hard metals for wedding rings that allow for more versatile design possibilities include steel, titanium and cobalt chrome. On 1stDibs, explore a wide range of wedding rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023Whether platinum is the best metal for engagement rings is a matter of opinion. Many people love the cool color and sleek appearance of platinum or prefer the precious metal because it doesn't tarnish and requires only minimal maintenance. However, platinum is more malleable than white gold, so it can develop scratches more easily. Cartier pioneered the use of platinum in fine jewelry in the late 1800s, identifying the strong, lustrous metal as ideal for bringing out the true qualities of diamonds. On 1stDibs, explore a diverse assortment of platinum engagement rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023There is no single type of metal that is best for engagement rings, as each metal has its advantages. Gold, whether yellow or white, is a timeless option. An 18-karat or 14-karat gold alloy will show off the beauty of the material and hold up fairly well to the effects of daily wear. Platinum is another popular option due to its strength, appealing cool color and resistance to tarnishing. People who work with their hands may prefer even harder metals like titanium or tungsten. Consider your personal preferences, job and lifestyle when choosing metals for engagement rings. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of engagement rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023Yes, sterling silver can be a good metal for wedding rings. The metal has an attractive, cool color and sleek appearance that many people appreciate. Sterling silver is also economically priced and fairly resistant to scratching and breakage. Keep in mind that sterling silver can tarnish. As a result, you should remove a sterling silver wedding ring before working with chemicals, applying beauty products, swimming or showering. Cleaning it regularly in accordance with the maker's instructions can also reduce the risk of tarnishing. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of sterling silver wedding rings.
