Fused Glass Chandelier

Having just finished a pendant fixture – with a team of interior designers –
for the Keep Austin Bright Competition, I have a few ideas.
You need to figure our how to shield the bulb or luminaire
with a form or shape that can be slumped.
Dangles are easy, as you can embed wires
or create attachment holes with fiber board or fiber paper or
drill holes for mechanical attachments.
Chandeliers are usually open structures
so a metal support framework is usually necessary for spread.
You also need to figure a way to hide the wires and maybe also the support structure.
A single point suspension attachment to the ceiling is needed.
I would suggest drawing up your ideas,
build some samples to be sure that you
know what you want to do will work and then give it a try.
