Frequently Asked Questions About Chandeliers

What is a chandelier or jhoomar?

A chandelier or jhoomar (also spelled "jhoomer") is a decorative light with multiple branches of light attached to a single central frame. There are various types of chandeliers, each suitable for different kinds of settings and lighting needs.

They are typically very bright and have more than 3 bulb holders. Typically, a chandelier lights up a compact space quite comfortably, and in some cases, they might be a little overwhelming too. Take a look at our ravishing collection of chandeliers online to see how they can change your space.

What is the difference between hanging lights and chandeliers?

Chandeliers are one type of hanging light. Hanging lights refer to any kind of light fixture suspended from the ceiling. Chandeliers are usually far more grand and glamorous than other types of hanging lights.

The way a chandelier lights up your home can be very different from how a pendant light does it. Make sure you take a look at both in a real setting before making your pick. A chandelier can provide better overall lighting compared to a pendant light that offers better direct lighting. Compare our pendant lights and chandeliers online and make the best pick for your home.

What are the types of chandeliers?

There are nine main types of chandeliers or jhoomars. Let us get to know them one by one.

• Drum chandeliers have a circular external shade surrounding the lights.
• Wagon Wheel chandeliers have lights placed exposed on a circular frame suspended from the ceiling.
• If these lights are candle-like, it can be called a candle-style chandelier.
• Globe chandeliers have a spherical external frame usually made in an open metal design.
• Sputnik chandeliers come with a number of light-bearing arms jutting out of a small central globe made of metal.
• Empire chandeliers have two or three layers of metal circles held on a single central rod, with metal chains or strings of beads or crystals cascading from one metal circle to the next.
• Modern designs feature sleek design sensibilities typical to the 21st century, usually with in-built LED lights.

Every chandelier lights up your home differently, so it's important to take a careful look before you make a pick. Visit our stores or explore our collection online to make a choice for your home.

Which type of chandelier should I buy?

This depends on the kind of aura you want your home to have. Things to look out for while buying chandeliers include the immediately visible color, material type, dimensions, color of the light, and design style of your room.

A large, Victorian-style chandelier is stunning and will create an aura of opulence and style, but it will not look good in a room with an otherwise modern design. You'll find a million ways to illuminate your home, but nothing quite like a chandelier lighting up your home.

This is the only sign you need to get a chandelier for your home. Take your own sweet time to browse through our collection and buy a chandelier online when you have truly made up your mind. Rest assured, you'll find the best prices at The White Teak Company.

What is the right size of chandelier for my home?

Ideally, the lowest point of a jhoomar light should be at least 7 feet from the floor of a room. To find the ideal diameter of a jhoomar for your home, add the length and breadth (in feet) of your home. The number you get should be the diameter of the chandelier in inches.

So if your home is 30ft x 22ft, then you should buy a chandelier that's (30+22=52) 52 inches in diameter. Make sure the lighting designs are proportional to the room so that the chandelier lights up your home just the way you want.
