Design Details

Unique Properties
This is a big handcrafted chandelier in polished stainless steel, adorned with thousands of colored crystal beads. In my opinion, the design of the chandelier turned out to be such that it can become an element of a modern interior, and with the same success can decorate a classic interior. Only metal and crystal glass. Each detail of the chandelier is made by hand, without the use of conveyor elements. The handmade light sources are made in the form of fabulous copper flowers and decorated with rhinestones. For lighting, I used the proven LED chips CREE X-Lamp with a high-quality light spectrum.
Inspiration
I create big chandeliers. Each new project is the result of a search for beautiful and non-standard solutions. I borrowed some design solutions in this chandelier from the Nereida chandelier, the winner of the A Design Award&Competition 2017, including the technology for manufacturing light sources that have been working flawlessly for more than 6 years. I don't use a lot of sketches for design development. Most of the details are born right on the desktop, and applied to the product to understand that this is what i need. And when the result is achieved, it inspires to go further.
Research
The dependence of the luminous efficiency of low emitting diode from the cooling quality and load factor. The obtained results allowed use the diode in the most favorable mode of work and create high-quality lighting system with low power consumption.
Challenge
when it comes to big items for hanging from the ceiling, we are looking for a compromise between strength and elegance. In this design, there is no separation between the frame and decorative elements. Every detail of the chandelier is a beautiful element of the frame. It was a task that we accomplished.
Realization and Technology
Chandelier components are made of stainless steel. Most of the details are made by blacksmithing. I used waterjet cutting to get some of the decorative elements and then hand-finished them into the final shape. The final step was to hand-polish the components to a high sheen. Copper radiators in the form of flowers, on which ultra-bright led chips are installed, and electrical connections are hidden under rhinestones. Fifty-six thousand crystal beads from "Preciosa" are assembled into threads of durable polymer material.
Operation and Interaction
Anastazya can become the main element of a luxury interior and illuminate up to 70 square meters of space. A reliable and economical led system will last up to 30 years. Crystal threads emit light reflections, filling the space around the chandelier with a fantastic atmosphere.
