What Is a Ceiling Chandelier?
First of all, what is a ceiling chandelier? There is a simple definition: a chandelier suspended on the ceiling is a decorative light fixture that hangs from the ceiling, with two or more lamp arms that support the light source. Ceiling chandeliers are usually gorgeous, with dozens of lights and intricate glass or crystal arrays that illuminate the room by refracting light.
Maybe you confuse a chandelier hung from the ceiling with a pendant light, which are obviously two different types of lighting. Indeed, sometimes you can see these two models merge to form a suspension chandelier. But you will see the differences between them: the pendant light is a kind of fixture suspended from the ceiling, where there is only one light bulb in the lamp. Very design, a suspension chandelier has the advantages of a chandelier and a pendant, usually accompanied by integrated LED technology, which can achieve a unique and luxurious design.
