What you need:
1. Two or three basins (depending on the size of the chandelier and how dirty it is)
2. Dishwashing liquid (or commercially sold cleaning agent)
3. Glass cleaning fluid
4. Soft, non-abrasive washrags
5. Rubber gloves
6. Step ladder to reach the chandelier, especially important for cleaning the frame and arms
7. Large towel or sheet (depending on size of the chandelier) to catch any drips when cleaning the sections on the ceiling. If you have a large piece of plastic handy, you can place this on the floor and place the towel or sheet on top of it. If you fear that some of the crystals may fall, fold some towels and place around the base of the ladder to provide cushioning just in case.

The Process
1. When working on anything with an electric current be sure to unplug it first. The best option for a chandelier is to turn off the breaker.
2. Carefully remove the light bulbs and light covers from the fixture.  Do not expose the light bulbs to any liquid.  Rather, consider wiping them off gently with a clean soft cloth after they have been allowed to cool and  place the clean bulbs on a soft towel until you are ready to screw them back in.  Microfiber clothes work well for this.
3. Fill one of the basins or kitchen sink with warm, soapy water.  Wipe down the frame and decorative arms with soapy water.
4. Prepare a clean basin of water and add a little detergent. You will need it to wash the crystal droplets and light covers from the chandelier. Have another container of warm water to rinse them in as well. Add about a half cup of ammonia to the rinse water. This will make the crystals sparkle even more.
5. Removing a few of the crystals at a time will make it easier to remember where you took each one from. The crystal pieces may look alike, but it will be easier to replace them in the exact place they were taken from. Agitate each piece in the soapy water and rinse. Dry them carefully with a soft rag before replacing them.
6. Switch on the breaker and examine your handiwork.

Your wrought iron chandeliers will be beautiful and free of dirt, cobwebs, and the crystals will be shining.

As you work, check for loose or raw wires and rusted or damaged pieces. If you do not have electrical training, you may consider having a professional Electrician look at them.
