As with any purchase, you get what you pay for. When you decide to purchase a deer antler chandelier, you must be careful not to get an imitation at the cost of a real one. You want to find something that fits your home and is affordable. How can you tell the imitation from the real one? There are some tips to know and you can use your best judgment to decide what is right for your home.
An easy way to tell the difference is to do a visual inspection. The real antler shapes are different for every deer and breed. If you see any chandeliers that are identical, they are artificial. In most cases this is fairly easy to see. In nature, there is always variation and no duplicates. Just like fingerprints are to humans, antlers are to deer. We all know that there are several breeds of deer and that makes a difference in the look of the antlers. A real product should indicate the breed of deer that was used in the creation of the chandelier.
The construction of the deer antler chandeliers is a very special process. Many companies that make these have been around for years. These companies are quickly recognized in the industry and have built a base of loyal customers. An unknown company often manufactures the replicas. You can go directly to the company that creates the chandelier and inspect the product. Long-distance companies are happy to provide photographs of what is available to you. The breed of the deer should be indicated on the antlers if the product is authentic. The appearance of the antlers will differ with the breed or species of the deer.
The design and the elaborateness of the chandelier will impact the price more than the material. The materials used in replicas are very strong and durable and is a quality product also. The bigger the chandelier, the higher the price. The intricate details, lights and light fixtures will increase the price of the chandelier too. Multi-tiered chandeliers, like the ones you see in resorts, are priced in the thousands. But if you are looking for one to enhance your bedroom or living room, the smaller ones can range in the hundreds. The designs are unique and beautiful whatever the size of the chandelier. Your home can be your creation of comfort with deer antler chandelier and not break the bank.
