Church chandeliers

A chandelier is a ceiling-mounted fixture with two or more arms bearing lights. Modern chandeliers are often very ornate, containing dozens of lamps and complex arrays of glass shapes to illuminate the space in many intricate patterns.
Structurally, chandeliers may be much heavier than other ceiling light fixtures. Some chandeliers may require special attachments to the ceiling and specially reinforced ceilings. Many chandeliers do not require special supports and can be directly attached to the electrical box like any other fixture. Instead they specify that the electrical box be specially reinforced. This reinforcement can typically only be done at the time of the chandelier installation of the box. Subsequent installations of a chandelier may require extensive renovations.
The earliest chandeliers were used in medieval churches and monasteries to efficiently illuminate large halls. They generally took the form of a wooden cross with a number of spikes on which candles could be secured, the whole assembly being hoisted to a suitable height on a rope suspended from a hook once lit.
Istok Church Supplies offers chandeliers of various sizes ranging from single to seven-level chandeliers. We also offer horos chandeliers more common in the Greek Orthodox Churches. These chandeliers may come in brass, bronze or gold-plated brass and can be decorated with enamel and Swarovski crystal. Electric chandeliers are made in Europe and comply with European electrical standards for 220V.
