What style for my glass ceiling light?
Glass ceiling lights create a warm atmosphere that blends seamlessly into your interior. It is up to you to choose the right decorative style for your living-dining room, bedroom, or loft.
You can opt for blown glass lighting fixtures. This technique requires rigor and special attention, through the meticulous work of exceptional artisans. We also offer models of this type.
Smoked glass
This lighting décor always creates a sensational visual effect on the ceiling. The term “smoked” refers to a metal spray (lacquered aluminum, for example) applied to the material, in whole or in part. It can also involve a specific dye. The result is spectacular and blends very well into an industrial or modern décor, especially with a visible filament bulb. It is the type of light fixture that blends into any room (bedroom, living room, etc.) with its lighting that diffuses a soft light.
With smoked glass, screw in medium to high-intensity LED or compact fluorescent bulbs, as the coating retains some of the brightness.
Frosted glass
With its matte white finish, it is a very good option for a recessed hallway light, as it offers a soft and indirect light, providing an excellent transition between natural outdoor lighting and your home. In short, it creates a soft and soothing atmosphere! This style is also ideal for a bathroom with a subdued ambiance. One of the most popular designs with this type of chandelier includes a base in chrome-plated metal in a gold color, and a frosted shade, fitted with an LED or a compact fluorescent bulb.
For frosted glass, plan for a high-intensity LED lamp in terms of lumens (3,000), as this material “veils” the brightness.
Clear glass
These are the most common! They can be enhanced by a wooden or metal base as well as a visible filament LED bulb to add a little color and texture. It is an excellent choice for a living room or study, to diffuse a white light conducive to concentration and visual comfort. They are often found in the form of a globe or a bell.
Opt for medium-intensity halogen or LED bulbs, as this material widely diffuses the light.
Crackle glass
With its vintage style reminiscent of crystal, it has been one of the most popular direct-lighting sources for decades. It is an excellent light for a hallway or large living room with its cracked appearance on the surface. Nevertheless, contemporary designers love to create all types of modern pendant lights based on this style.
Fit it with medium-intensity bulbs to create plays on the crackle effect and enjoy the décor! Also discover our fabric ceiling light range to contrast the ambiance!
