Types of Crystal Glasses
Crystalline is glass with 6-105 of lead oxide. A half-lead crystal contains 24-30% lead, and full lead crystal contains lead percentage more than 30%. There are many types of crystals used in the making of crystal lights and chandeliers. We have discussed few and the most common crystal types below for you.
Machine-cut Crystals
Machine cut crystals have precise edges, good angles, and sharp facets to reflect light effectively. The visual purity and precise polishing add to the look and shine of the crystals.
Hand-cut Crystals
Hand cut crystals are manually labored crystals that are reputed for being highly refractive and are just perfect to give chandeliers that antique look and sparkle. The crystals are processed in two different steps; first, the crystals are cut by sandstone and iron wheel and then secondly they are polished manually using a wood wheel and marble dust.
Legacy Crystals
These crystals are also known as Venetian crystals and originate from Venice. These crystals are handblown by the artisans instead of cutting with machines and tools. The bright and shimmering look of the crystals lend an authentic feel and antique look to the chandeliers. Today most of the antique look chandeliers are made of the Venetian crystals.
Apart from the above type of crystals that are processed using three main techniques, you also get to see various other types of on the market for making chandeliers.
The Swarovski Crystal
The Swarovski crystal is considered as one of the finest crystals in the world which originate from Austria. The crystals from Austria are clear and pure and are available in various colors including gold and silver. If you are looking for a vintage charm to the chandeliers, then these crystals will add the look for sure.
Crystal Rocks
The crystal rocks were used in the 16th century for making chandeliers where candles were used as light sources. Today we can find chandeliers made of these crystals only in ancestral properties, palaces, and museums.
Today we find these crystals in various types of chandeliers. The color is coated onto the crystal, and you can find almost all colors of crystals on the market.
Cleaning and Maintenance:
Dirty or dusty crystal lamps fail to give off the atmospheric effects expected of them. Proper care of your crystal light is essential to achieving the full effect of the piece. Follow these steps carefully while cleaning your crystal, and be sure to take great care of each piece as you clean.
Spray and Drip-dry Cleaning
This method of cleaning is good to remove dirt and dust every two to six months. This method does not require the crystals to be removed from the fixture.
Switch off the power to the fixture and ensure that the bulbs are screwed in tight to prevent water seeping into the sockets. For further protection, cover each bulb with a small sandwich bag and tie something around the base. Pace a towel on the floor below the crystal bathroom vanity lighting to absorb the dripping cleaner.
For the best cleaning spray, you can either use a store-bought crystal cleaning solution, or you can make your own. To make your own, mix one-part ammonia with three parts distilled water, as tap water can leave marks on a crystal. Some crystal manufacturers believe that hot, soapy water is an effective cleaner. Others suggest a mixture of one-part isopropyl alcohol to three parts distilled water.
Spray the crystal thoroughly so that the solution covers all surfaces of the fixture, but avoid any electrical components or exposed wire. The fixture should remain stationary. Let the solution drip off the crystals, cleaning the dirt off. Spray the crystals with distilled water to thoroughly clean any remaining dirt or soap. An alternative to letting the crystals drip dry is to wipe them dry with clean cotton gloves. Once the crystals have dried, remove the bulbs from their sockets and use a soft microfiber cloth with cleaning solution to wipe down the light sockets.
Cleaning Individual Crystals
If the crystals have accumulated tough dirt and grime, the best option is to remove the individual crystals from the fixture and hand wash them. Line a sink or basin with a towel to protect the crystals while washing them, then fill the container with warm water and dish-washing soap. Line a second basin the same way, and fill with a mixture of hot water and ammonia.
Carefully remove the crystals from one section of the light at a time, taking note of where they are positioned on the fixture. Take a picture of the fixture before you begin cleaning, as a reference for replacing the pieces. Wash the crystals gently in the soapy water, then rinse them in the ammonia mixture. Wipe each crystal dry with a clean, soft cloth. Carefully hang the crystals back in the correct places. Use a cloth or gloves to avoid leaving fingerprints.
