Only a few fixtures can be called truly “custom” and “unique,” but blown glass chandeliers are among them as the material they're made of vary from one fixture to another; thus, maintaining a semi-custom appeal for every model.

Before you rush and get the trendiest blown glass chandelier you see online, there are certain aspects you need to think about. But, whatever it is that you settle on, you can expect it to create the right atmosphere in your home. Compliments will even come pouring in every single time you have visitors!
To ensure that what you pick is the best for your needs and preferences, you first need to identify where you want the blown glass chandelier to be as it will affect the right style for your home lighting. Most people think that chandeliers are just for foyers and dining rooms.
But, you can hang chandeliers in other places like in your bedroom! If you get one with a dimmer and hang it over your bed, you will give the space a romantic feel. You can even add a mini chandelier in your bathroom and install it over your claw-foot tub. Doing so will give your master bathroom class, sophistication, and glamour! For a chic and elegant look, try installing mini blown glass chandeliers over your kitchen island rather than adding the standard pendant lights.
Blown glass chandeliers are available in almost all styles, so pick the one that complements your room’s theme instead of detracting from it.
As for the size, measure your room’s width and length in feet, then add the two measurements. Change the sum from feet to inches and you’ll arrive with the correct diameter for your chandelier. For dining rooms, blown glass chandeliers must have a diameter of less than 12 inches than the width of the dining tables. Also, remember that it is always better to have chandeliers that are slightly too big compared to ones that are too small!
Getting the right length is easy as you simply need a 7 ft clearance between your floor and the tip or bottom part of the chandelier. For dining tables, leave 30 inches of clearance from the chandelier’s tip to the tabletop.
