The Art of Illumination

Elevate any setting to new heights using gorgeous decorative chandeliers! At Susan Semmelmann Interiors, we love incorporating beautiful light fixtures made of sparkling prisms to create a soft glowing aura or dazzling brilliance! Chandelier designs follow historical events closely. Originally they were crafted purely for functional purposes, providing overhead lighting in large spaces like palaces, churches, and grand ballrooms. In the 18th century, they evolved with the advances in metalworking techniques to include more intricate designs using materials such as crystal, brass, and bronze. Chandeliers became even more elaborate later in the 19th century with the introduction of gas lighting and eventually electric lighting. This technology allowed for greater versatility in the number of bulbs, brightness, materials, and shapes, leading to more modern designs like the ones pictured in these stunning inspirational images. Whether you appreciate the timeless and ornate beauty of a classic crystal chandelier or prefer the modern and avant-garde designs of contemporary pieces, these alluring suspended light fixtures continue to captivate us with their elegance and ability to create an extraordinary atmosphere! Allow Susan Semmelmann Interiors to reflect your radiant style through a custom-designed chandelier! Design/image credit to @thehauteinteriors @elitedesignstudio
