I recently got a beautiful five-arm chandelier from the 1950s. The chandelier was completely dusty and matte. The dust was practically sticking to the glass crystals. So I put the chandelier in the dishwasher for 40 minutes at 40 degrees + a 3 in 1 dishwasher tablet. The result was amazing. The chandelier looks almost like new again and works 😊 I put the chandelier in the sun for two days after washing it so that it dried completely everywhere. I did this a few years ago. At that Time it was a colleague's chandelier. The result was also incredible.

I love you for using a completely natural "non chemical" product like apple cider. People could save themselves so much money and potential health hazards by turning their backs onto expensive branded household chemicals, while embracing good old simple vinegar instead! BRAVO!!

This may be quick but my antique chandelier gets taken apart & each crystal washed in water with isopropryl alcohol & a little Dawn, then rinsed in water with alcohol & dried yearly. I use rubber gloves & lint free cloths. I also bag it when I'm not entertaining to keep the dust off it. It's worth it when people see it and exclaim they've never seen such a beautiful chandelier!!

Very beautiful! Amazing how it simply drip-dries & you don’t have to hand wipe each individual part of the chandelier (that is, like mentioned in this video, if you do this kind of cleaning every quarter, you can get away with just spraying & not wiping 😊👍🏻)

Great tips, I like the bags over the bulbs. I use alcohol & water because I don’t like the smell of vinegar. We had so many fires in CA & the soot got in the house so we have to really work to get it off of everything, chandeliers & shower rooms had windows open to vent during showers so even paint needs to be redone. We had to repaint our whole exterior. Thanks for your helpful advice, much appreciated.

Sorry but I would never ever do something like this, this will damage the metal wire links and leave a copper tint (Apple vinagre) on the crystals. If you have and expensive chandelier I would totally recommend not to cut corners and take your time and do this correctly by cleaning it piece by piece.

I do have to agree that this could damage the fixture if you used rubbing alcohol not water this would be better as it would evaporate and not rust metal parts. For the amount of work you did taping the bulbs you could have just as easily unscrewed them and slip the boboches off .

Hi I know this seems like the easy way to do this!! The basic training for cleaning is never spray anything on the item to be cleaned - but onto a cloth first. Also anyone else following this method may use to much fluid hence gather fluid at the base going through to the electrics!! You mention Alcohol too strong for cleaning, any product that is not wiped off with collect in wiring and have a build up on dust causing corrosion of the wire. What you do in your own home is one thing but be careful you know what your doing before letting out a "little knowledge to the public"

Please dont laugh, I am serious. Wouldn'tcovering the bulbs with a condom be a lot easier and cover them much better? If you didn't want to do that then fingers from rubber gloves might work. Otherwise this seems like a lot less work than my wife has been doing.

I know that Lily has a Schonbek chandelier because I have a very similar one in my master bedroom. If you go to the Schonbek website, it recommends that you use rubbing alcohol and water. They also warn you not to spray solution at the chandelier to prevent electric shock. I suspect that as long as you cover up the bulbs, and you don't have the chandelier on, you should be fine. I will try this method, but with the alcohol and water solution. I would like to know how she keeps her chandelier from getting dusty. Iwww.schonbek.com/ws/web/sch_clean_crystal.html
