What customers say
The Schonbek Sarella Chandelier is overwhelmingly praised as a breathtaking centerpiece delivering unparalleled brilliance. Customers consistently highlight the aesthetic impact, noting how the heritage crystal transforms spaces with vibrant refractions that surpass expectations. The substantial weight confirms the high quality expected from the brand, leading many to view this luxurious fixture as a worthwhile investment and an heirloom piece.

Know before you buy
The chandelier weighs 41 lbs. Due to its weight and size, we recommend installing it into a ceiling junction box specifically rated for heavy fixtures or consulting with a professional electrician to ensure your ceiling structure can support it.
Yes, you can use LED bulbs as long as they feature a B10 candelabra base and do not exceed the 60-watt maximum per socket. LED bulbs are an excellent way to reduce heat output and energy consumption while maintaining the fixture's aesthetic.
With a 41-inch diameter and 35-inch height, this is a substantial piece. It is best suited for rooms with high ceilings, such as a formal dining room or a grand entryway, where it can hang freely without obstructing movement or sightlines.
Yes, the Sarella is a chain-hung fixture, which allows you to adjust the hanging height to better suit your specific ceiling height and room proportions. Please check the included hardware kit for the standard chain length provided.
Swarovski Strass is known for its high-precision machine cutting and exceptional clarity, offering maximum light refraction. Heritage crystal is a high-quality, machine-cut option that provides a classic, brilliant sparkle at a slightly different price point and aesthetic profile.
Because this fixture requires hardwiring and involves handling delicate glass and crystal components, professional installation is strongly recommended. A licensed electrician will ensure the fixture is safely mounted and properly balanced.
