This looks crazy and reminds me of light sabers, which, I suppose, is a good thing. "The Hexalux C is a circular pendant fixture for general lighing. Each arm ends with a simple porcelain socket (shown here with showcase bulbs). Up to a 36" stem is included."

This is such a reasonable price for a very decent chandelier. It is actually quite elegant and would be perfect for those of you who qualify as apartment nomads, or anyone else who appreciates an easy affordable solution to lighting...

The chandelier 'to go' - comes in a pack with everything you need for this innovative fixture where the piece is actually held up by the light bulbs. It is wired directly to existing ceiling outlet wires and can be used 110V or 220V.

Want to add a little irony to your opulence? Try a 3-d chandelier. "2 pieces of MDF are cutout to look like a candle chandelier. You put the 2 pieces together, fasten them with the included ties, add your socket set and HELLO, new 3-D chandelier! Look at you, so modern with your non-chandelier chandelier. " * 25"l, 25"w, 25"h * MDF

Who doesn't appreciate instant (recyclable) shading for a light? "A cardboard interpretation of the classic chandier- slip it over that bare naked bulb and voilà. choice of plain cardboard or white on one side Folded flat, the shade is opened up and held together using the clip studs included." details: 3 arms, 3 lampforms, 2 dics and 50+ snap clips and of course a manual, cardboard, plastic clips (bulb/wiring not included - this fits over your existing light.)

Not exactly an affordable lighting solution, but it would definitely make a statement in a room. Tobias Wong, the master at taking something standard and making it interesting, has this time entirely coated a traditional crystal chandelier in industrial white rubber. "Peel off at your own discretion."

This chandelier imported from Italy takes non-traditional materials to make a traditional form. "Designed by Bruno Rainaldi for Terzani, the Anastacha evokes the feeling of a traditional chandelier while using decidedly modern materials. Choose from transparent or black plexiglass with brushed nickel-finish hardware. Dimensions 27.6"D X 25.6"H, 74.8" maximum overall height."

Sorry for posting something so far out of budget but this is pretty amazing so I thought it was at least news worthy. Boontje teamed up with Swarovski to create this chandelier which can be adjusted via remote to either blink or remain constantly on. materials: pink and clear Swarovski crystal with white LED lights dimensions: Approximate dimensions: 65" x 57", depth 35.5"

This is the first time I've run across a retailer for this chandelier (I think) and I'm very excited to see it's available... "Upside-down wine glasses make up this chandelier. The stemware is meant to be used and then rehung. By selecting which glasses to hang, you design your own lamp. Different kinds of glasses cause different reflections and light patterns. If you choose all crystal glasses, it will look like a crystal chandelier. Available in 40 & 16 glass versions. Glasses, electrics, bulb not included." You can choose between a chrome or black steel finish.

Modern chandelier with just enough pomp and circumstance to be funny but not so much that it's annoying to look at. materials: Aluminum, cut Austrian crystal, 3 x 15 watt clear E14 bulbs notes: The Cellula comes with a clear electrical wire. (as shown) Black or white wire can be specified but may increase the lead time.
