What style are organic modern chandeliers?
How are they different from other chandeliers?
When we picture traditional chandeliers, we imagine elegant crystal and grand rooms. Organic modern chandeliers combine timeless elegance with innovation and minimalist design.
Modern chandeliers use eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient lighting. They help preserve nature while introducing a show-stopping centerpiece to your home.
Organic chandelier lighting makes a great first impression in your entryway. Chandeliers are the first thing you see when you enter your home. Natural woven chandeliers and styles with wooden beads enhance your living room with natural vibes and a connected feel. Also, many designs for modern organic chandeliers bring a sense of grounding to a space and cast a warm glow that can feel inviting and captivating.
Natural material chandeliers incorporate earth friendly resources such as wood, bamboo, natural fabrics, stone and rattan. These sustainable materials add layers of texture and character to your home for a harmonious balance between modern decor and the great outdoors.
What are the Benefits of Handmade, Natural Pendant Lights?
Perhaps you’re looking for a fixture with a coastal vibe or something light and airy. Natural fiber chandeliers create a soothing light that can promote a sense of calm and relaxation. The look of organic chandelier lighting with LEDs has actually come a long way. LED lights from the early 2000’s used to be harsh and riddled with issues like flickering and taking a while to reach their color temperature. Nowadays, LED lighting can look and feel just like nostalgic and warm incandescent lighting. Look for chandeliers that accommodate LED bulbs that are 2700k light temperature, for that warm, golden light.
Incorporating natural woven chandeliers with nature-inspired shapes and warm incandescent lighting is a great way to create a relaxing and inviting space. While incandescent bulbs are a healthy and beautiful option, they are getting increasingly harder to come by.
Good news is those beautiful organic modern chandeliers that accept LED bulbs are better for longevity and energy conservation. You won’t need to replace the bulbs as often as traditional compact fluorescent bulbs (CFLs) or other types of bulbs. And, the newer LED eco-friendly light bulbs are non-toxic and won’t off-gas harmful chemicals, like mercury vapors that are found in CFLs. (Mercury is only released if the CFL bulb is broken. But discarding these bulbs at the end of their useful life proves to be an increasingly problematic environmental challenge.) Good news is, natural chandeliers are not only made from sustainable materials but using LED bulbs is a healthy addition to your home and a welcome upgrade for environmentally friendly energy solutions.
We also want to consider the materials used to make modern organic chandeliers. As a health-conscious consumer, you’re looking at the bigger picture, right? Some organic modern chandeliers use materials like jute, wood and bamboo. Certain species are known to grow fast with moderate amounts of water and no need for chemical pesticide intervention. These materials for natural chandeliers embody the cycle of life between us and Mother Nature – something we all may embrace as a part of a healthier home.
Tips for Choosing Organic Chandelier Lighting
How to choose a design for my natural fiber chandelier?
The style of your home informs the design of your natural chandelier. First, take a look at your home decor and sense of style. Simple, sleek designs and asymmetrical fixtures complement modern, contemporary homes. Natural fiber chandeliers paired with seagrass or driftwood fit a coastal feel or farmhouse aesthetic. Organic modern chandeliers with natural wood and metal accents offer a nostalgic and versatile look. These are perfect for rustic-style homes and transitional interiors.
What’s the best shape for a modern organic chandelier?
Round, natural woven chandeliers are a safe bet for creating a cohesive, inviting look. These work well with a variety of home styles and designs… Minimalist designs can feature industrial-style candelabras and fun materials like recycled glass, unfinished wood branches and iridescent stones. Candelabras are often round and tiered. Depending on how wide, they can be excellent for very large spaces like high vaulted ceilings and rooms with a grand and airy feel.
So let’s consider other shapes for your natural chandelier. There’s other ways to add some luxury and drama in an understated fashion without the need for extravagant organic chandelier lighting. Think tall and thin pendant lighting in pairs or threes over a kitchen island or bar. Or perhaps an ornate feel is what you’re looking for! Intricate designs, including sputnik tree branches, pearlescent shells and natural crystals, are stunning options for natural material chandeliers.
What’s the best size chandelier?
When picking a decorative light fixture, the piece should have just as much purpose as it does design impact. In fact a natural chandelier can transform the look and feel of a room. Size definitely matters, as the light should fit the scale of your room.
Picking a chandelier or pendant that is too big can make a room feel crowded. Whereas a light that’s too small not only gets lost in a space but also creates a visual imbalance. A simple rule is to add the width and length of your room together. The optimal size of your chandelier is the total but in inches. For example, if you have a 12 feet by 10 feet dining room. Then, 12 feet (room length) + 10 feet (room width) = 22 inches (chandelier diameter). Amazing!
How Do I Pick Eco-Friendly Light Bulbs for My Natural Chandelier?
Incandescent light bulbs are timeless and provide beautiful golden light, but they have been outlawed in the US and are getting harder to find. Thankfully, eco-friendly LEDs (with a 2700k or 3000k light temp) are a close match these days to natural light. Midday white sunlight is around 3000k and dusky yellow light at sunset is similar to 2700k. Choosing eco-friendly LEDs with lower Kelvin temperatures around 2700K is our go-to color temperature for a golden-hour glow.
LED bulbs are definitely more expensive than other bulbs, but they have an average lifespan that is way longer than traditional light bulbs, which means less pesky maintenance and light bulb changes. And they give off much less heat.
When it comes to the amount of light, chandeliers with exposed bulbs create more intense lighting. These are great for task lighting for arts and crafts or a desk area for work, but there’s also a higher chance of glare in your eyes. While installing a dimmer switch may be an easy fix, it’s best to avoid using dimmers simply because they can create spikes in electrical currents and unsafe EMF inside a home. Instead, putting lights on a couple different circuits and using floor lamps or table lamps is a great work around. Using the approach of layered lighting still gives you flexibility to adjust the amount of light in a space without dimmers.
