If you’ve seen pictures of eighteenth and nineteenth century European crystal chandeliers, the word “chandelier” itself may immediately draw them to mind. The wide skirts, often in layers, with dazzling sparkle, light reflecting off of every crystal facet… They were grandiose and announced to castle or mansion visitors that rich people lived there.

But these chandeliers are not your grandpa’s chandelier.  One is a really terrific one…but you need to look at the 14 before them.

So what do you think of chandelier #1?
