If you search the web you will find a few similar things to our Halo chandelier - but they tend to be overly showy, or baronial, or bling, or....hideously expensive. We wanted to create understated class with a simple, but strong, perfect halo of polished solid brass. We are thrilled with it - it packs a punch without showing off. And you don't need to live in a palace. It will easily hold its own in a grand vestibule but it will also sit happily over a small round table, for example, without overpowering the space. And if you do want it to shout out loud...then do so with the shades!
