Schonbek Geometrix: Jewelry for your Home
Sep 2nd 2010
There are some people who enjoy very simple lighting with a few easy curved lines. Then there are those of us who prefer detailed, intricate geometric designs. If you fall into the latter category (or are just looking for something truly distinct in lighting) then you absolutely have to check out the Schonbek Geometrix line of lights. Covered in gorgeous Swarovski crystals, these high-tech light fixtures decorate the home much like great jewelry decorates the body.
More than just great lines
The most outstanding immediate feature of the Geometrix lights is the cool geometric lines and patterns that make up the designs. This isn’t just about triangles and rectangles. You’ll find spirals, pyramids, pentahedrons, spheres and more.
However, it’s not just the great geometric patterns that make this line of lights so amazing. There are many neat high-tech design features including:
- Distinct pairing of lighting with STRASS Swarovski crystals, an effect that actually change the way that the light interacts with the space in the home
- Combination of halogen, xenon and LED lighting
- Lights with colors that put on light shows in your home
- Chandelier models that can be washed in your dishwasher!
Top Geometrix by Schonbek products
Let’s take a closer look at some of the leading products in this amazing line:
- Compact DaVinci LED Chandelier. The DaVinci chandeliers are all pretty impressive. They’re decorated with an abundance of luminescent Swarovski crystals. They range in diameter from ten inches to two feet. And yet, these massive balls of incredible light can be taken apart and washed safely in the dishwasher. The LED chandelier in this line takes it to a whole new level. It uses energy-efficient LED lighting in 10, 12 and 15-inch chandeliers that can be hung individually or grouped together for a neat constellation effect. The LED lights can be programmed to show off different colors. Great for parties and creating different moods in the home! And yes, it’s still dishwasher safe.
- Low Voltage Mini-Pendants. These are designed so that they can hang over a table or counter. They provide enough light for the task at hand but don’t produce a glare. The exterior of the pendants shimmers with prismatic light. The crystals themselves can be colored or clear.
- Oval Pendant. This shimmering pendant light has the glamorous look of a modern chandelier. However it hangs high and small enough to fit in homes where a chandelier might be too overpowering. If you don’t like the oval shape, you can choose a circular shape instead. Either way, you get a gorgeous dining room light that is dishwasher safe like so many of Schonbek Geometrix’s models.
- Geometrix recessed lighting. Recessed lighting is placed up high so that it’s at the same level as the ceiling. If you have Geometrix recessed lighting then your eye is going to be drawn upwards because it is so beautiful. Of course, its subtler than Geometrix chandeliers or pendant lamps but they still have their own signature Swarovski-rich style. It looks like jewelry for your home.
