Default Bathroom Chandelier...?

I don't like bathroom lights. I've been looking, but I just don't like
them! I'm re-doing my bathroom fairly traditional.


Some people like a traditional 1960s look, others a traditional
1930s look, others a traditional 1860s look...

We're having a free-standing bath, but no shower - is there a problem
with me putting in any old light fitting?


If you are in England or Wales then you need to consider Mr
Prescott's daft ideas.

The bath will presumably be fixed. You may be able to legally get
away with a chandelier, in certain parts of the room if it is high
enough. However, it will be difficult to clean and the water vapour
will affect it so that it soon looks grotty. Both problems can be
avoided by a suitable enclosed fitting. There are plenty on the
market.
