Lighting a home has both
decorative and functional aspects.
Each of these aspects of lighting is applicable individually, but
there are rooms that can implement both at once. A living room is lit for both functional
purposes and decorative aspects. When
looking for a luminaire that can perform both aspects, chandeliers are
best.
The weight of the chandelier refers to so
many factors including safety and losses.
A heavy chandelier if not fixed properly can fall and injure someone
underneath. In addition to causing
accidents, it can also lead to losses as it can destroy other valuables such
as expensive dining or living room tables.
The chandelier itself when purchased expensively and made of delicate
materials such as crystals can break and lead to
losses.
As these lighting fixtures are known for
their great weight, it can sometimes be difficult to find a bright chandelier
with an elegant look that you desire for your
interior.
Here are some tips on how to find the
right chandelier for your
roof,
Room measurements
As much as your focus is on the
weight of the luminaire, you can not ignore their sizes because the size has
a direct correlation with the weight.
Finding the right size for your room can only reduce the weight factor
associated with the size of the chandelier.
Measure the width and height of your room with a tape measure. An average living room has a size of up to
393 square meters. If your room is
much smaller than this, you should not go for a large chandelier as it will
not only have more weight but also ruin your entire
room.
Chandelier
size
A light chandelier definitely
has a smaller size, not unless it is made of heavy metals. The size of the chandelier you choose
should have a direct proportionality to your room size. Small room requires a smaller chandelier
which in turn is
lighter.
Chandelier
material
Chandeliers can be made
of a variety of materials. The most
common materials used are metal including brass, wrought iron, chrome and
bronze. Chandeliers made of wrought
iron are usually light. They can also
be made of materials such as crystals, timber, alabaster or plastic. These are usually lighter than those made
of metals. Depending on your decor,
choose chandeliers made of materials that are
lightest.
