When you think of crystal chandeliers, what comes to mind? Illuminating spaces in the Palace of Versailles? That once-in-a-lifetime visit to Buckingham Palace? Or maybe you’re picturing the grand entrance at the White House?
It’s no secret that these well-known sites feature dazzling lighting that creates an elegant, dramatic, and unforgettable aesthetic. But fortunately, eye-catching crystal chandeliers aren’t just for traditional settings and royalty…
Anyone with good taste — yep, that means you! — can display these sparkling, stunning beauties in their home. And when it comes to crystal chandeliers, Schonbek Lighting Company takes the cake.
Reasons to Love Schonbek Lighting Company
Schonbek is more than just a lighting company. It’s an age-old tradition of designing and manufacturing the most breathtaking and luxurious crystal chandeliers. Founded in Bohemia in 1870, Schonbek’s heirloom chandeliers grace the interiors of some of the most famous residences worldwide, including none other than Buckingham Palace and the White House. (See?) But these days, they aren’t all traditional.
You’ll find selections that range from classic elegance to contemporary cool, each adorned with handcrafted details to remember. Today we’re featuring 5 of our favorite styles from the Schonbek Collection, and you may be surprised to see that there is an option to match any interior. Come take a look…
