How are Crystals Made

Crystals, or crystal glass, are made by combining and melting silica, quartz sand, soda ash, and other elements at extremely high temperatures. French and German manufacturers started replacing soda ash with potash and lime back in the 1700s. Once the mixture reaches a specific temperature, glassmakers begin adding different concentrations of red-lead oxide to the furnace, forming crystals with various purity grades.

After lead fully oxidizes, the mixture is transferred to wood blocks and moulds, creating what is known as crystal chambers. Glass blowers will then use their expertise to control the thickness of the chamber before the process of hardening starts. Once it starts to cold down, the crystal chambers are then moved into annealing ovens to slow down the hardening process, usually taking two to seventeen hours. After the crystals solidify entirely, they are given to glass cutting specialists who will draw patterns and fine-tune the crystals’ final size and shape.

Finally, to ensure that the crystals have that lustrous and uniform polish, they are smoothened using a sandstone wheel and submerged into a mixture of sulfuric and hydrofluoric acids.

Why Choose Crystal Floor Lamps

Crystal floor lamps depict world-renowned sophistication. Since Venetian artists started using transparent glass in their artworks, crystals have spread their brilliance as the symbol of elite and class in interior designs and architecture. For lamps and lighting, crystal chandeliers were the first and most popular application for crystals in lighting fixtures since the 1900s, and crystal floor lamps have become their famed counterparts as stunning moveable crystal lights.

Crystal floor lamps are timeless pieces, with many having heirloom-quality standards. As the love for crystals never went out of style, crystal floor lamps became perpetual qualifiers in trendy lighting style lists launched by international design magazines. Of course, vintage-themed crystal floor lamps are also craved by many lamp enthusiasts. These people often give praise to those special crystal floor lamps that have a history to tell due to their long-lasting life. Many of these pieces can only be seen in museums and auctions, with each piece starting from thousands of dollars.

Crystal floor lamps are lighting decors that won’t put holes on ceilings and walls. The wonders of floor lamps never stop at just being versatile lighting equipment. Being light sources that you can readily use without calling an electrician or renovator to install their components in your room is a decisive factor in why people buy floor lamps. The need to refurbish your house or a part of your room just to attach that desired lighting item is gone by using crystal floor lamps. Add to the fact that it can similarly enliven your space like a wall light or a pendant light can do.

Crystal floor lamps are great task lights that can brighten up your space. As crystals are very reflective material, a simple crystal floor lamp can readily scatter light to a wide area with just a beam passing on its surface. Therefore, their excellent supplement lighting sources when you need to write something down or read essential details as you study or work in your personal space.

Crystal floor lamps are very easy to care for and maintain. Dusting crystal floor lamps regularly can sustain their brilliance and charm. Deep cleaning every month or quarter using a clean cloth, water, and crystal-friendly soap can eliminate grease and built-up grime over time.

Crystal Types in Floor Lamps

Many know that crystal floor lamps are the choice for standing lights in formal or grand settings. They always have a special aura that other floor lamps can’t replicate. However, many didn’t know that there are various types of crystals that can be used in lighting fixtures and lamps. They are characterised by the location in which they are manufactured, the process they undergo, the cut and opacity of each piece, price points, and their final shapes when showcased in the market. Here are a few details regarding crystal types that you may see on floor lamps:

Swarovski Crystal: Known as the finest crystals in the world, Swarovski crystal glasses are named after Daniel Swarovski, the inventor of the precision-cutting machine used to shape crystals demanded in jewellery, furnishing, and lighting applications. His company, based in Austria, has been established as the leading crystal producer in the market and has partnered with famous brands to create stunning crystal masterpieces.

Heritage Crystal: If Swarovski is machine-cut, heritage crystals are always hand-cut by most experienced artisans and glassmakers. Manufacturing Heritage crystals is a tedious process, a methodology established centuries ago by pioneer crystal glassmakers. Out of all crystals in the market, Heritage crystals are most likely the ones with the most plentiful imperfections or variations in their appearance, becoming its undeniable trademark.

Rock Crystal: As a raw material extracted directly from rocks, Rock crystal is one of the crystals that cannot be mass-produced. Also known as quartz crystal, this crystal is mined and considered as not a real crystal glass. It is a unique mineral created by generations of geological events. Nowadays, it is used in specialty lighting and custom designs.

Spectra Crystal: Critics and artisans quote Spectra crystals as the ultimate alternative to expensive Swarovski crystals. It’s a machine-cut crystal characterised by its prismatic appeal and is sold in limited quantities by Swarovski AG.

Gemcut Crystal: Also known as Eqyptian crystal, Gemcut crystal is another machine-cut crystal polished to present its transparent and pristine appearance. They are made with 24% to 30% lead oxide, making them more transparent than most crystals.

Legacy Crystal: With its manufacturing process originating in the Venice region, Legacy or Venetian crystals often have concave facets due to their moulded-then-fire-polished forging process. Being the only lead-free crystals in the modern-day market, they’re reasonably priced and are used to make antique-looking commodities with their beautiful subtle brightness.
