What is a Candelabra Chandelier?
Simply put, a Candelabra is a type of chandelier with multiple arms providing a brilliantly lit focal point for a variety of interior spaces. Typically, candelabra chandeliers are ornate and grand, offering a sizable design that makes quite an impact within a dining or entertaining space. Over time, candelabras have adapted to various styles, finishes, and sizes, to effortlessly blend with a variety of interiors. Candelabra chandeliers can often have bulbs and sockets that are designed to look like flickering candles paying tribute to early lighting designs that did not use electricity. Still perfect for making a grand impression, modern candelabra chandeliers can be used in dining, living, and sleeping spaces, indoors and out, to provide a welcomed touch of brightness and conversation-worthy appeal.
How to Find the Candelabra Chandelier that Suits Your Style
A candelabra chandelier, just like any other lighting fixture can be found in a variety of styles, finishes, and sizes to best suit your space. First, select the room you are looking to install your candelabra chandelier and then decide the aesthetic you are looking to achieve. For rustic, modern farmhouse, or French country-style spaces, burnished iron, natural wood, and brass-accented designs offer plenty of style and on-trend allure. For Scandinavian and industrial spaces, black, white, and naturally finished chandeliers are sure to do the trick. Once you’ve chosen your aesthetic, it's time to figure out the best size for your space. To best select a candelabra for your home, measure the width and length of the space, add these two numbers together and consider the number in inches rather than feet. This then translates to the ideal diameter of a candelabra that works best to fill your room. In terms of height, a good rule of thumb is 2 to 3 inches of chandelier length per foot of wall height. Once your candelabra is installed, kick back and enjoy the beauty and ambiance you have instantly created.
Don’t forget your outdoor spaces as well! Candelabra chandeliers are an excellent choice for covered patios, screened-in porches, and entryways with ceilings. For dining al fresco or entertaining friends and family when the weather is warm, select a wet-rated candelabra design that provides ample light source within your outdoor space and offers dramatic expression to craft an entertainment area all will envy.
