Wish List: Chinoiserie Chandelier

Lately, I've been craving a chinoiserie-style chandelier (or two!). Ideally, I'd pick up one for my living room, with shades covered in chiang mai dragon to match my sectional pillows. I love how John Loecke and Jason Oliver Nixon of John Loecke Interior Design incorporated this style chandelier in the living room and study of their Brooklyn brownstone:

Here it is again in their Upper West Side apartment. (I lived in the "same" apartment four stories below these uber-talented guys, and stalked their open house several times when they listed this place five years ago!)

And I love the look used here, in a child's nursery:

For my stairwell, which with its higher ceilings could handle a more vertical shape, I'd opt for a faux bamboo pagoda style chandelier, as pictured below.

Red Pagoda Chandelier

Brimfield Antiques Fair is a good place to find these kinds of fixtures. Maybe I'll try to snap one up in May, and rehab it myself!
