For instance, not so long ago, chandeliers were a luxury only very wealthy people could afford. As a result, a chandelier was one of the best indicators of person’s social status.

Though chandeliers aren’t as common nowadays as they used to be a century or two ago, it is still possible to find a wide variety of interesting designs. Wood, brass iron and other metals are still among the most common materials, to which glass and crystals were attached, forming interesting composition and convoluted tricks of lights.
