Light Fixtures

One thing I noticed pretty quickly is that the light fixtures here are rather unique. I'm not sure I've seen two light fixtures of the same kind (and we actually saw them hanging in a store/shop too). Chris has informed me that although they may look nice they aren't usually very high quality.

The fixture in our kitchen (don't worry, we knew we needed a new bulb before I took this picture):
The fixture in our bedroom:

You may notice that there are only four working bulbs (of twelve). Chris checked them out and it looks like the bulbs are not replaceable. Yep that's right, and it means you have to replace the entire fixture once all the bulbs burn out... (Isn't it interesting to think that some people concern themselves with buying bulbs that last longer...)
The fixture in our living room:
Don't worry, we do have lights in our bathroom and entry, they just aren't very interesting... plain old bulbs sticking out of the wall.
