You will find that chandeliers will go with most dcor. You will also see that many of them can be purchased as decorating elements as well as lighting. You will love having a chandelier hanging from your ceiling. Before you go shopping, read all about murano chandelier as well. There is no other chandelier that can offer the classic elegance of a hand blown Murano chandelier. Each has its own individual look and characteristics and offers something special. Now that you've found that perfect chandelier you're going to need to assemble it. Here are some tips to get you going in the right direction. If you walked into a local lighting store you may have been lucky enough to find that perfect chandelier assembled and ready for install but if you purchased it online or directly from Murano chances are you'll get a box full of intricate pieces that need to be assembled. Not to worry! Take your time and follow the directions included as well as these tips and you'll be enjoying your new treasure in no time. And just think you'll be all practiced so that the next time you move and want to bring along your chandelier it will be a piece of cake. First off let's hope the included directions come in English. More often than not they will arrive in Italian and you'll have to use an online translator to sort through them, rely on the diagrams, or just use these tips. If you've got a photograph of the chandelier assembled this can be very helpful! If your chandelier is custom made just for you, you may need to wire the sockets, but if you purchased a fixture that was already made all the arms and sockets should be wired. You'll want to let them know if you will be using your chandelier in Europe or North America so that the sockets are correct for the size of bulbs you can buy in your area. If you are buying an antique Murano chandelier you will want to find out what type of sockets it is wired with and what the voltage is. If you are ordering one that will be custom made be sure to take a picture of the sample style provided so that you know how to stack them in the correct order. When it comes time to for you to start to unpack the package just pay close attention to the order you are taking the pieces out. Make sure your lighting is good and that your pieces are safely displayed where the dog or the cat can't make a mess of your outlay. Line up the cups, flowers, and arms then look for the metal center post and all your tubes and cup pieces that will cover that center post. Take time to visualize how these pieces would logically go together before you actually start the process. Remember to build from the inside out. There's a good chance that your chandelier will not only need assembly but cleaning, especially if this is an antique piece that you've purchased from some quaint shop....
