Lighting up a French country home becomes so much fun when you realize the amount of beautiful chandeliers you have to choose from! Finding the perfect French country chandeliers for your home has never been so easy – thanks to the wide variety of styles, light bulb count, finishes available. Sorting through all the choices can be exhausting though, which is why we’ve rounded up our favorite elegant French country style chandeliers that would be perfect for your French farmhouse style home!
French Country Chandeliers
These chandeliers are full of vintage charm that French country style is known for. From distressed whitewash iron to delicate crystal charms to wooden cage frames, there are certain decorative elements that you must consider when choosing a French chandelier. Creamy white, gray, and brown are the most popular colors when it comes to French country decor so you’ll definitely see those colors represented here. I recommend choosing a neutral colored chandelier because you don’t want to draw too much attention to the ceiling. These chandeliers will certainly get the job done!
Here is our curated selection of French style chandeliers for the home.
You can hang these French country style chandeliers in just about any room of your home. Obviously the smaller chandeliers will work best in small rooms like the bathroom, while larger ones can handle open spaces like an entryway, living room, or dining room. Just remember: chandeliers should hang at least 7 feet above the floor!
Chandeliers are certainly statement lighting pieces, so be sure that your room can support such a commanding lighting fixture before buying! Here, blogger Edith & Evelyn has designed a beautiful French country living room complete with rustic chandelier, cane-back dining chairs, a natural wood dining table, a beige table runner and a gray grandfather clock against the wall. This neutral dining room has just enough of a French touch to give it elegance and charm!
