    You can spray that one with black spray paint, if you think it wont look good with the rest of your fixtures.

    You love the chandelier? Yes, you can mix and match finishes. Add something on the wall..mirror, art...that will tie in the chandelier to the rest of your metals.

    Here is an example. Frame is black, shiny silver accents, strong golds.

    What color are the walls?

    @judianna20 Thank you I'm actually an artist so I could do that I was thinking I just didn't know if that actually would count as another metal if you know qhar I mean ?  But i do think it might work good to know someone else thought the same. I actually really like the one you showed me... again ty for ur input and maybe I'll create something " similar " I don't want to copy someone else's art but the style & colors

    @cat_ky  idk maybe it's crazy I didn't want chrome / silver but the white leather strap got me. Just different from what I normally see & didn't want anything trendy! Ty though its something to think about!

    Glad you agree. Often one can get caught in the trap of "match". You can blend a lot of finishes and colors. All it takes is just one special thing that makes it all work.

    I went on a house tour recently, and the kitchen was fabulous. Antique home with a fantastic marble island. Base of the island was brass with that green patina. Sink was soapstone, faucet was brass and all the hardware on the white cabinets was black. Sounds like a mish-mosh, but it was a stunning room. The constant? A pale blue beaded board ceiling. To die for...the one thing that melded it all.
