“Even the heaviest chandelier is pretty light”

A chandelier can give “light,” but the chandelier itself might be “heavy.” There are “light” puns, of course.
       
“Even the heaviest chandelier is pretty light” was posted on Reddit—Dadjokes on February 15, 2018. “Is that chandelier heavy ? Or is it pretty light ?” was posted on Reddit—Jokes on January 12, 2021.
   
“How much does a rainbow weigh?”/“Not much, they’re actually pretty light” is a related joke.

My daughter pointed at an ornate chandelier hanging in a lobby and said, “That’s a pretty light”
I said, “I dunno it looks pretty heavy to me”

A guy asked me if I needed help carrying a chandelier.
I said, “Nah, it’s pretty light.”
