Oyster shell chandeliers can match rustic, contemporary, or modern decor depending on the color and style of the chandelier. Oyster shells with a rougher and more natural appearance will work best with a rustic or beach-themed room that needs a hint of additional texture. However, avoid unpolished oyster shells for larger chandeliers since their rugged texture might overwhelm the fixture’s design.
Polished oyster shell chandeliers work best with modern or contemporary decor. Due to oyster shells’ silver tint and sheen, they add a beautiful hint of contrast and visual interest in rooms with dark-colored furniture. They may also work well in a contemporary room with light yellow and blue colors, reminiscent of a coastal scene.
