Drum Modern Chandeliers

Drum Chandeliers

Sometimes referred to as a barrel shade, the round shape of drum chandeliers is what gives them their name and distinct style. This collection offers pieces in a wide variety of styles to ensure a drum chandelier exists for each home. The round shade diffuses the rays of light to form a soft, warm shine that appeals to a range of spaces.

As with any chandelier, hang a drum chandelier at the focal point of the room, where it can be appreciated. This large style of lighting works best when it’s the center of attention such as in an entryway or foyer or over a dining room table where the warm light they provide feels cozy, but not too informal.

Other Considerations

Drum shade chandeliers are unique because they offer a more compact take on a traditional style of lighting. This allows homes with average-height ceilings and smaller spaces to benefit from the elegant presence of a chandelier. To keep this trend going, consider adding drum pendant lighting to match the chandeliers and create a theme throughout the home. Pendants provide a focused glow that effectively illuminates surfaces such as tables and kitchen islands.
