Outdoor Iron Chandeliers

Why would anybody install a chandelier outdoor? Why not? Using chandelier lighting for a terrace or a similar open space can give the place a select elegance, while being also useful. Outdoor iron chandeliers are built a little bit different from the regular chandeliers, meaning that they are more solid, waterproof, made to resist bad weather conditions. However, hurricanes are out of the question, so if any of those storms is announced in your area, get your outdoor chandelier indoors until things are calm again.

Where To Buy Outdoor Iron Chandeliers


As I was looking to redecorate my terrace, the idea of an iron chandelier for the outdoor lighting came by itself, as we are all in love with such lights which remind us of old movies. This is how we started to investigate chandeliers collections on the internet. We found so many models that choice was very hard to make. Yellow light, white light, classic, modern, with antique touch, with candles, with 6 arms, or 5 arms, or 12 arms, here are only a few of the tough decisions we had to make. Finally we went for the Troy lighting, which is a wrought iron six light outdoor chandelier from the San Marcos Collection. This was a struggle, because my wife wanted so much the traditional / classic iron chandelier from the Acropolis Collection. I thought that had the glass too fragile to be kept on the terrace, although the manufacturer reassured us that it is unbreakable. Other two good choices would have been the Almeria and the Zen Garden collections. We discussed the lighting issue for about two weeks, so there's no wonder we are way behind the schedule with our renovation.
But our iron chandeliers are gorgeous. I can't wait to see them lit.
