Important things to look for when purchasing a crystal chandeliers.
Brand
Purchasing a chandelier that is manufactured by a reputable brand is a very good way of ensuring that the quality of your item has had years of research and development placed into making sure every detail of your glorious chandelier is finished to perfection.
Crystal
Crystal quality is one of the most important factors in ensuring your crystal chandelier will have the wow factor you set out for. The reason for this is a high quality crystal (full lead hand cut) will have diamond like refraction of light and colour VS low grades of imported crystals will look glazed and dull with minimal sparkle and colour giving the effect that the crystals are glass or just very dirty. It truly is the difference between viewing a piece of glass and a hand cut diamond, every ones eye is drawn to the diamond for its brilliance and not the glass. The best way to tell if a crystal will be of high quality is to find out the lead content and if the crystal is hand cut, laser cut or moulded. Hand & Laser cut full lead crystals are of very high quality, however moulded or low lead content crystal is of lower qualities. The crystal brands that we at Designer Chandelier Australia trust and recommend are listed below. If you purchase a chandelier dressed in crystal from one of these manufactures we guarantee the crystal on your chandelier will be divine.
