Beauty of Creativity: Ancient Chandeliers | 10% to shy-fox

These chandeliers were actually photographed long ago, in time I visited the mosque and historical site. Chandeliers are one of masterpieces that amazed us with the artistic style. It also known girandole, candelabra lamp, or least commonly suspended lights is a branched ornamental light fixture designed to be mounted on ceilings or walls that usually seen inside the mosque, museum or other historical spots.

These two chandeliers are mounted on celling in the veranda. While another one was hanging in the grave of Malikussaleh. The last one is just additional picture that was taken inside of Putra Jaya mosque. Mosque is not only a place to do worship but we can also enjoy the classic ornaments that made us wonder how these stuff were created so beautifully.

Chandeliers evolved from candelabra and were invented during the medieval period. They originally used candles as their source of light, which remained in use until the 18th century, when gas lights, later superseded by electric lights, were invented.source
