Synapse LED Pendant

Schonbek Beyond is what happens when a crystal company decides to leave the classic chandelier behind. Part of the Schonbek family, with its roots in Bohemian crystal making, it reimagines crystal lighting through clean lines, open space and architectural form.

The designs are lighter and more minimal than anything traditional. Precision-cut crystal is used deliberately, sometimes in a single line, sometimes in a loose geometric cluster, and the emphasis falls on proportion and the way light moves through the material rather than on decoration. Slim metal frames and refined finishes hold everything in place while letting the crystal lead. Schonbek Beyond also explores new forms and technologies, so some pieces feel closer to light sculpture than to a conventional fixture. Fixtures from the collection suit modern homes, condominiums and hotels, anywhere a traditional chandelier would feel out of place but a precise, quiet sparkle is very welcome.
