Crystal Chandeliers

I moved from Canada to Europe in recent years and one of the things that really struck me was how opulent fittings and furniture are in people's homes. As an outsider the chances to step into someones home have been relatively infrequent, but when we have the chance to step into that world, it is always amazing. The chandeliers are especially beautiful.

The D'Legne Chandelier pictured here can be ordered direct from the manufacturer, they are not a retail item. As a man of above average height, I have some painful memories of poorly located cheap lighting fixtures. If you dream of having something timelessly beautiful like this for your home, make sure you have sufficiently high ceilings first. I love the high ceilings here.
