Luxe chandeliers create sparkle and shine

 

 

 

STAR POWER
The Mesa Starburst by Hammerton Studio aims to conjure the rugged landscape of the Southwest. Artisan-blown crystal shades contain striated diffusers and LED bulbs; both base and shades come in various metallic finishes. Pictured: a Novel Brass base with a Mesa Bronze shade. studio.hammerton.com

CRYSTAL CLEAR
At 36 inches in diameter, Allegri’s Vezzo makes a bold statement. The nine-light fixture is elaborately layered for a waterfall effect with strings of octagonal crystals woven onto cast-brass loops; even the canopy is ornamented in crystal. Pictured in Winter Brass. allegricrystal.com

MAKING HISTORY
Venerable glassmaker Barovier&Toso named the Bissa Boba chandelier after the Venetian word bissa, meaning snake. Fashioned from mouth-blown Murano glass, its sinuous arms wind out from a metal center. Find in a host of glass colors and two metal finishes; Olive glass is pictured. barovier.com

SUSTAINABLE STYLE
The Flow chandelier by Varaluz presents a delicately detailed silhouette of twisting ribbons. Hand-forged out of recycled steel with a two-tone Hammered Ore finish, the fixture comes in a range of sizes; the eight-light version is pictured. varaluz.com

PERFECT CIRCLE
The 10-light Trina Chandelier by Arteriors is designed to resemble a bracelet or earrings. Hoops of clear, seedy glass are punctuated by exposed bulbs around a ring made of iron in an Antique Brass finish. arteriorshome.com

IN THE ROUND
Designed by Atelier Alain Ellouz, the Soho Chandelier is composed of hanging discs suspended from a gleaming metal structure. Each disc joins two alabaster rounds via a small metal ring. Find in a choice of sizes at Holly Hunt in DC. atelier-alain-ellouz.com; hollyhunt.com

FLOATING ON AIR
The light and airy Bubbles chandelier assembles blown-glass bulbs clustered—and seemingly afloat—around a brushed-nickel or -brass frame. Designed by Ashley Stark with a single bulb at its center, the fixture is available in clear, blue or opaque glass. ashleystarkhome.com

DOUBLE DUTY
Clean-lined and modern, Castro Lighting’s Rolland Round Suspension light features gold-plated brass bands supporting two rows of clear crystal tubes; 48 bulbs, hidden inside the circle, emit a soft glow. It also comes in a square format. castrolighting.com
