Century Heritage Crystal Wall Light

Century is built around a single, elaborately cut crystal column held on a low curving arm from a round wall plate, a classical line drawn with almost nothing else on it. Other finishes are available to order. This is the wall light in French Gold.

The crystal is Schonbek's Heritage Handcut, made in Europe the slow way: each facet cut one at a time on iron and sandstone wheels, then polished with marble dust on a wooden wheel, to patterns replicating gems that hung in the castles of the Habsburg empire. The house of Schonbek was founded in Bohemia in 1870 by Adolph Schonbek and has been making crystal lighting ever since.
