Bubble Glass and Glass Globe Chandeliers

A glass globe breaks the glare of a bare bulb and spreads the light evenly in every direction. With clear glass the bulb itself becomes a decorative detail and the chandelier looks light; with frosted and opal glass the light is softer and never dazzling. That is why bubble and globe chandeliers work both as general light in a living room and as focal light over a dining table.

The number and size of the globes set the visual weight of the chandelier. A few large globes leave a simple, modern impression; many small globes give a livelier, sculptural look. Brass and bronze frames create a warm contrast with the glass, while black frames draw a graphic, contemporary line.

When choosing, consider the size of the room and the ceiling height; find the right diameter with our chandelier size calculator. As glass globes are fragile, we recommend cleaning them only with a dry, soft cloth after installation. Write to us about the glass type, frame finish and size, and we can adapt the design to your project.
