A rustic wrought iron chandelier over a breakfast table. The selection in decorative lighting for the kitchen covers a wide range of styles and price ranges.
Consumers often use decorative lighting to draw attention to an area of the kitchen.
An island or breakfast nook can easily become a focal point when it is topped by a stained glass, crystal or antique brass fixture. When deciding what type of fixtures to add, consider how the room will be used and the overall design theme. In a casual kitchen where children use the island for doing homework, it would be wise to stay away from solid crystal dangling pendants. In a more formal kitchen that is used for entertaining, however, the crystal might add the right touch. It may have an antique brass finish, four to six glass lights and an ornate scroll design on the base.
