This week social networks have been positively buzzing with the news that someone loves chandeliers even more than we do here at Moonbeam Lighting! British woman Amanda Liberty recently announced that she proposed to her favourite chandelier, Lumiere, on Valentine’s Day this year – with a wedding in the wings next year. Named after the animated candelabra in Disney favourite Beauty and the Beast, the crystal chandelier is just one in her collection of 25 chandeliers, who she insists ‘aren’t jealous’ following the announcement.

The thirty-three year old from Leeds first discovered her love for chandeliers when she purchased Luna, her very first, several years ago. Since that time she’s been adding to her collection frequently. She then spotted her future fiancé on eBay last year – describing the moment as ‘love and first sight’. The 30-inch antique had to be shipped over from Germany to join Amanda’s already vast collection. “I couldn’t stop thinking about her and how beautiful she was — she has such a beautiful shape, and I could feel really amazing energy coming from her,” Amanda explains. “Although I knew it would be tricky to get her home, I knew I needed to find a way to make her mine.”

Amanda identifies as Objectum Sexual or OS, finding love firstly with a drum kit aged fourteen and later legally changing her name after falling for the Statue of Liberty (long distance unfortunately took its toll on their relationship). “None of my chandeliers are jealous of each other, they understand that I love them all for all of their different personalities,” she said. “For example, I love kissing and cuddling Lumiere, but I sleep with Jewel every night, as she is portable and very nice to cuddle.”
