RE: ๐ My Favourite Things ๐ Vol II ๐ A Neoclassical Chandelier ๐
in my parents' house, we have 2 of this lights, a bit smaller and younger i think. and every month, we had to take little chains with crystals of to clean it in alcohol. We did smoke, and the crystal suffers from it. Stone my stone got cleaned with cloth and alcohol and then hanged back. Ohw my god I hated them lights!!! :-o Nice to look at, but cleaning ...
But if you just take a spray bottle with the alcohol and completely wet the stones (crystals) and place newspaper underneath, then the dirt will drip onto the newspaper and you donโt have to do all that work!
the crystals are on a chain from metal, like copper or brass, when you do nt dry it thoroughly, the chain will have corrosion very quick. what makes that the crystal can fall of easily. When you would live in Belgium I would know 2 for sale. :-)
hehe! If it corrodes it means it is not brass or copper or even silver, it must be steel. And yes, that is what happens :)
so we took off the pearls and dried it all separately
