New Classics: The Sara Milk Glass Chandelier
Exotic and familiar at once, this light fixture makes a memorable impression wherever you hang it
Houzz Contributor. Hi There! I currently live in a 1920s cottage in Atlanta that I'll describe as "collected."
I got into design via Landscape Architecture, which I studied at the University of Virginia. I've been writing about design online for quite a few years over at Hatch: The Design Public Blog.

An antique Egyptian hand-blown glass chandelier inspired this scene-stealing fixture. The Sara chandelier, made by Canopy Designs, is composed of two hanging metal rings adorned with milk glass shades in a range of colors that vary the light and glow. Eclectic with a Middle Eastern flair, this fixture serves as a stunning focal point over a dining or kitchen table, and makes a memorable first impression in a foyer. Here's a gander at how well it works with a range of design styles.

"The Sara chandelier is one of my favorite pieces; I love its unique shape and interesting mix of materials," says interior designer Rachel Reider. "The turquoise milk glass reminds me of sea glass, making it a perfect fit in this beach house."

While turquoise seems to be the most popular option, the fixture is available in a range of colors, including white, milky antique, milky chocolate, milky green, milky jade, milky pink and milky lavender. The frame comes in several finishes: antique gold, antique silver, bronze, antique white and black.

| "I built the entire dining room around the blue milk glass chandelier and custom wood ceiling treatment," says interior designer Wendy Resin. "The turquoise color was the inspiration for the other textiles in the room. I followed with Moroccan-inspired Roman shades, linen drapery and antique rug. The dining room opens to the entry of the home and offers a casual but elegant space to welcome guests." |

A smaller version of the chandelier is a good scale for a smaller eat-in kitchen or breakfast nook. Note the way it adds a jolt of color to this crisp white room.

astraea I love art glass, but $2,400 is a bit pricey! I have a Quoizel fixture in my dinette, with matching wall sconces in the dining room, and blue art glass sconces in the living room.

Becky Harris Relatively, this is a bargain; the original Egyptian fixtures that inspired it run at least 3 times the price.
