Chandeliers

Nothing sets the mood quite like lighting. We're not just talking about low-wattage bulbs and dimmers, either. Striking ceiling lighting options like chandeliers heighten the drama of a space and create a unique ambiance that makes you want to linger. Now, you can find stunning dining room chandeliers (as well as pendant lights and chandeliers for other rooms) at Macy's. We carry lighting designs that mesh with all kinds of home décor, including chandeliers for every space and taste. Here are a few pointers to help you choose the perfect chandelier for any room.

Chandeliers 101
Are you wondering what makes a chandelier different from other types of pendant lighting? Both types of light fixtures attach to the ceiling, but a pendant light typically features a single lightbulb, while a chandelier usually holds multiple lightbulbs. In general, chandeliers cast more light and have a stronger visual presence, especially when used as statement pieces to offset the décor. However, not all chandeliers are a pendant-mount chandelier that connects directly to the ceiling for a subtle look. If you want to illuminate a single spot, look for an overhead pendant light. If you want to light up an entire room, purchase a chandelier. No need to relegate extra-special lighting to the dining room—chandeliers can bring glamour to any space. Bedroom chandeliers and foyer chandeliers are already popular, while over-the-tub chandeliers continue to gain traction as a decorating option. 

Chandeliers for Every Home Décor 
Yes, most people envision an ornate, high-sparkle crystal chandelier when they hear the term "chandelier." However, those fairytale castle fixtures aren't the only chandelier designs available at Macy's. If you prefer sleek lines and pared-down pieces, browse our selection of modern chandeliers. These sculptural styles lend an element of robust form to a minimalist layout. Is your space decorated in a coastal-inspired style? A rattan chandelier will harmonize with a coastal interior's softer, more casual vibe. Does your décor run more towards the farmhouse than the manor house? A rustic chandelier will enhance the warm, cozy feel, particularly when combined with wood furniture. If you're unenthusiastic about tons of crystal, try a brass chandelier or a black chandelier. These lighting fixtures combine a touch of shine with plenty of substance, making prominent focal points in a room.

Whether you're looking for a hybrid chandelier-ceiling fan or a traditional crystal design, find the best lighting for your home at Macy's.
