Whenever I think of Antler chandeliers I’m reminded of those fairy tales that were based in woods, Hansel and Gretel and Snow white and the seven Dwarfs. The woods added that unique charm to the story. I can visualize a charming antler chandelier like a deer antler chandelier or an elk antler chandelier adorning the ceiling of their lovely cottage.

While trying to research on the topic of antler chandeliers I came across a poll where they had shown a picture of an antler chandelier which had been painted glossy and they wanted to know whether you loved it or hated it. I loved it because it looked good and frankly as long as it added to the décor there was no harm in it.

Antler chandeliers are greatly popular these days particularly with people who like to add a rustic charm to their log cabin or their home in the woods or even with those who want to recreate the woods in the heart of New York City!

People often prefer deer antler chandeliers and elk antler chandeliers and for those of you who are not too keen on the real thing but only want the look there is faux antler chandelier too.

If you want to decorate your house with an antler chandelier you have to identify a room that will go with the look. You can’t fit in an antler chandelier with minimalist settings. If you want to create a log cabin in your otherwise modern house that too would be fine especially as a hangout for the men. The room should have a complete rustic theme. One more important thing is that the room should be large enough for the antler chandelier.

Once you have decided on the room or the theme of your house pick the antler chandelier you need. Are you looking for a deer antler chandelier or elk antler chandelier?  When opting for an antler chandelier settle for a nice handcrafted piece as that will give your home a very classy look. If making a style statement with your décor is on your mind then an antler chandelier would only go towards making that statement for you. You could settle for an elk antler chandelier and replicate the glory of nature in your house. If you are the outdoors type of person or the nature lover or an animal lover, antler chandeliers are just the right thing for you.

Highlight your dining table or the living room with an antler chandelier. You could even give a sensual look to your bedroom with an antler chandelier. Just ensure that the rest of the room also has that rustic or made of wood look. When you set out to purchase an antler chandelier you have to first decide how you want your décor to look like that is how much of a unique look you want? Decide on whether you want an authentic handcrafted antler chandelier or you want a faux antler chandelier. The authentic handcrafted antler chandeliers are generally priced higher but then they add a touch of class to your décor. A faux antler chandelier may not look as attractive because it has artificial looks.

Even designers of modern log homes and ranches like to make use of an antler chandelier to give that rustic and interesting look to their homes. The bold look that the antler chandelier lends to the home goes well with the ranch look. An antler chandelier usually adds to the charm of the room where it is fitted.

Antler chandeliers are made from stag horns that are naturally shed by them. The completely handmade antler chandeliers are quite expensive. Antler chandeliers look good in cabins, ranches, homes; you can put them in natural surrounding or rustic looking cottages. Avoid putting an antler chandelier in rooms that have a feminine setting or a formal look. They go best with a rough and tough looking den.
