Something special, something new.

This is a Chandelier with a story, a one of a kind. My mother-in-law bought an absolutely stunning crystal chandelier while vacationing in Rome. After I commented on it's beauty, she told me that she had "extra" crystals and that I could have them. Apparently, they assumed some would get broken and gave her replacements, a lot of them.
I knew that I wanted a simple but elegant chandelier that I could mix in the "family crystals" so that they looked like they belonged. 
I didn't realize what a great choice I had made, until the chandelier was installed. It was extraordinary.
(the longer crystals are the ones from Rome)

Find the perfect statement piece



Finding a center piece for my dining room table took a while. I knew I wanted some color along with a metal element.
Next...chandelier installation. I can't wait!
