🌟 Guide to recognizing a crystal light fixture 🌟
The exquisite Cristal lighting collection reflects an unrivaled blend of elegance, style and fashion. 👌 By their very nature, these crystal creations seduce and illuminate virtually every home 🏠 and all public buildings 🏢. Each piece of crystal is individually cut and polished, creating exceptional scintillation as it catches and reflects light 💡. The dazzling glow of our fixtures enhances and diffuses the soft light of contemporary LED bulbs, while offering a nod to their ancient candlelight enhancing function 🕯️.
🔎 Distinguish glass from crystal 🔍
The key to distinguishing glass from crystal lies in the very essence of their composition. ✨ Crystals contain glass and lead, adding an extra dimension to the light they reflect. Place any Murano glass or crystal pendant light from our collection in front of the light, and you will see the blue reflection indicating lead or crystal. Without reflection, it is glass.
Do not hesitate to admire the structure of our crystal pendant lights, in particular the central trunk which connects all the branches. This characteristic can give indications about the age of the luminaire, its manufacturing technique and its value. However, make no mistake: seniority is not necessarily a criterion of value. The brilliance of a modern chandelier with lampshade, whether it is an LED ceiling light , a ceiling lamp or even a metal pendant light, can be just as impressive.
🕵️♀️ Identify the manufacturer using the drip trays 🕵️
A clever way to identify the manufacturer of a crystal chandelier is to look at the recycling bin. 🧐 Also called a bobeche, this is a cup-shaped piece of crystal at the base of each bulb, designed to collect candle wax in a bygone era. Today, they add an extra touch of elegance to lighting fixtures such as baroque chandeliers, designer pendant lights or even table lamps.
💡 Some other features to look out for 💡
When selecting your piece of crystal lighting, look at the different materials used. They can indicate the age and style of the light fixture, whether it is vintage, rustic, industrial or contemporary. Old halogen lights were powered by gas before the discovery of electricity. They featured hollow tubes of gold-plated metal or glass that allowed gas to move toward the bulb. These fixtures can be easily disassembled for transport, an inspiring feature for our current industrial designs
