Lights On

The earliest chandeliers date back to the medieval times. While the earliest chandeliers were designed to hold candles, many of them were later retrofitted to burn gas and later updated to use electricity. Although today’s chandeliers no longer use candles, they continue to provide a glittering waterfall of glass beads. This particular chandelier has beautiful reflections of light and shadows in the strings of small crystal connecting to the larger crystal.
