| We have a 2 story foyer and are looking to buy a large crystal chandelier for it. I would like to know if it is worth it to spend on swarovski or the regular cut crystal would do. Also any other pointers on buying chandeliers would be helpful. |

| Make sure you get a lift installed. Either manual or electric. Nothing sparkles like real crystal, and Swarovski is top of the line crystal. |

| Regular crystal will provide plenty of sparkle and diffraction. I doubt that anyone other than the owners will know there are Swarovski crystals in the chandelier unless you brag a bit. Maximize sparkle by keeping the glass clean and use clear glass bulbs. |
