Why does everybody like to own a crystal chandelier in their home? Number one, they are exceptionally gorgeous, switched on or not. I second the motion. But perhaps no one could better the grace of the chandeliers at night, when all of its light bulbs are glowing. Just visualize the crystals catching the lights and refracting them back, if you have glass or crystal wares it would indeed look more captivating. Next reason probably is their value. Not only are they fashionable forwhat? Ever since they have been created? When they are looking like that who could accuse anyone for wanting them as their house’s attraction? They could transform a cottage into a palace by just switching the light on.
Second tough question: if a chandelier is so awesome why then there are those who wouldn’t dare hang them? Biggest reason perhaps is because they are big. Second is the cost. And lastly is the upkeep. If we evaluate, these issues are actually easily resolved. In terms of space, a downsized lighting fixture like mini-chandeliers could fit even a bathroom. When it comes to the budget, by choosing a simple one you can cutback the zeroes in the tag price. If you feel these lights consume too much electricity, tell your dealer to show you an energy-efficient fixture.
In terms of upkeep, yes chandeliers are indeed somewhat troublesome to clean-”mendokusai” if you ask the Japanese. Since chandeliers include several materials such as crystals, glass, and metal wares a lot of people believe each requires a different type of cleaning. The most “mendokusai” probably is detaching the light bulbs from the holder, good luck if you have twenty at least. To free you from this problem, decide on a lighting fixture with two to three branches. That way you can have two to three big light bulbs to dust.
You must know you must never, ever use ammonia with your metal finish. Ammonia as we may know is used for cleaning the bathroom, window panes and glass. If your lighting fixture however is made from metal or silver finish use a cleaning solution specifically made for that instead. This is to make sure that the coating will not be tarnished by the abrasive substance, something you should always prevent. Some retail stores after purchasing a lighting fixture give the cleaning liquid directly. If you find them expensive and you believe you can actually prepare your own cleaning solution then go for it. As a matter of fact, spraying detergent or vinegar on the crystal bulbs is in fact as efficient as the commercial cleaners.
Spurt the liquid into a cotton towel and wipe it in the light bulb. If you cannot unbind the chandelier from the ceiling, use a high ladder so you can wipe it well. Nevertheless, it is advisable that with a mounted lighting fixture, you should take it apart twice a year so you can completely get rid of the dusts.
