It was the ancient Sumerians and Egyptians who moulded candles and they are the ones that used coloured glass to create holders that will not only hold the source of light but also help to make it more radiant as the glass sparkles and expands the light. From here onwards the journey of the chandelier has followed many twists and turns on its road of development.

Regardless of what age we jump to in the history books, we will always find chandeliers, carrying a long and impressive history that brought us to that point in time, but it would also always contain elements that are modern for that time. It is simply how progress takes place, the old and practical remains and new and more advanced elements or style preferences of the times are added. This is the same trend that you will be noticing in the collection of chandeliers found in the vast range on offer at Classical Chandeliers.

“We have quite a wide selection of choices on offer and while many of our premium chandeliers flaunt features that are both historic and classical, elegant and luxurious, we also have a range of much more modern chandeliers. These are chandeliers that are bringing a different feel to the spaces they illuminate. If I have to mention only one example of these more modern chandeliers we have on offer, it would have to be the Spiders Web,” says Paul Towers, the director of Classical Chandeliers. ‘

Towers then expand on the design of the modern chandelier with its radiant spider web design consisting of high-quality crystals. The chandelier is a perfect fit for the lower ceiling as the design doesn’t carry much height. As the light is shining through the crystal web, the entire chandelier appears similar to a spider’s web riddled in dew drops with the sun’s rays reflecting on every droplet caught up in the web.

“Another trademark of more modern chandeliers is that they often offer a level of variance and here too the specific option doesn’t disappoint. The modern chandelier is available in gold, an antique gold finish, or a more nickel tone to compliment the overall image you are creating with your decorative choices for any specific location in your home.

Chandeliers will always showcase the pleasant appeal, reminders of times gone by, but by adding more modern elements to the design of these chandeliers, the professional behind the craft manages to carry the development of this historic decorative light source forward in time.
