Many Rustic Chandeliers have shades that are made of natural or faux leather that have been overstitched with rawhide for an authentic look. They give off a warm glow that is a perfect with candelabra bulbs. Some of these handsome fixtures have lantern lights that may hang below, or sit on top for up or downward lighting. Some will also come with clear or frosted glass shades for brighter lighting requirements. Floor and table lamps are available for bi-directional and task lighting as well. Remember that for the Western Chandeliers that have lanterns hanging below the lighting arms you will need at least 30 inches from your table top or other surfaces.
Some of the motifs you will see in these types of chandeliers will be horse shoes, gold mining and barbed wire. They come in many finishes but wrought iron and other distressed finishes are common. Lighting arms tend to be open and may be attached with large open ‘O’ or ‘C’ rings for a forged-in-the- fire blacksmith look. These will connect to chain for an enhanced rustic look for your installation. You may even find the occasional horse or cowboy leaning on a fencepost.
