How to properly operate?
- Wood is a natural, environmentally friendly material that requires increased attention in terms of safety and proper care. It has good flammability, so it is important that all parts of the device are made with high quality in compliance with all fire safety measures.

How to choose a wooden chandelier?
When choosing lighting for a room, pay attention to its features:
- The first is the size of the room. The luminaire should not be lost over a huge area or, conversely, clutter up the space. In addition, a small chandelier cannot illuminate a large room. In order to calculate the diameter of the device in centimeters, add the length and width of the room in meters and multiply by 10.
- The shade of the device should be combined with furniture, curtains or wallpaper in the room..
- Ceiling lights are suitable for a living room or bedroom, while in the bathroom it is better to use wall-mounted waterproof appliances. A combination of lighting in large rooms is allowed.

It should be noted that products are made both from natural wood and from materials that imitate it. Special care of wooden products is not required – just wipe the surface with a damp cloth.
