Ask Joshua: Create a Showstopper Dining Room with the Ultimate Industrial Chic Chandelier!

Hi Joshua,

A couple of years ago, I bought a loft in downtown Chicago and am only now getting around to updating it. I'm revamping the great room to achieve an industrial chic aesthetic. The furniture and accessories for the living and dining areas are already chosen. However, I'm encountering a challenge in finding the right chandelier for my dining area. My new dining table is 60 inches round, made of natural wood, and seats six, with light gray velvet upholstered chairs. My issue is that the industrial-style chandeliers I've encountered are too ordinary, something I've observed both locally and during my travels. I dislike sputnik, global bulbs, wheel-like fixtures, and anything with Edison bulbs. I'm looking for something unique and eye-catching, a piece that can stand as the centerpiece of the dining area. I've attached photos of this space for your reference. Do you know of any places that sell unique industrial chandeliers that I could check out?

Thank you,

Chris - Chicago, Illinois

Hi Chris,

Thank you for reaching out with your question about finding the right place that sells a unique industrial-style chandelier that will not only fit perfectly in your dining room but also make a significant statement. I've reviewed the photos you sent—your loft is gorgeous! I understand your concern about not wanting an industrial-style chandelier that seems ubiquitous. There are numerous places that offer unique and distinct industrial design chandeliers that can make a bold statement. I've compiled a digital shopping list for you to showcase my selections for your dining space, and I hope you find them appealing. Please note that these vendors offer a wider range of industrial-style chandeliers beyond what is shown in this digital shopping list.

Best of luck,

Joshua
