150 Years:
An American
Success Story
Schonbek is part of the American narrative. Founded as a
family-run crystal chandelier maker in 1870, the company
has since grown to a world-renowned premium lighting brand,
captivating consumers across generations and continents
with its timeless designs.
The passion for innovation and commitment to beauty in every detail that shaped
us 150 years ago still defines us today, as we continue to build our long heritage.
Our 150th anniversary is a celebration of our future as much as of our past. Our
legacy was not built by standing still. Over the years, we have expanded our offering
from classic crystal chandeliers to the contemporary styles of today, always with a
dedication to creating exceptional pieces for people who value a welcoming home
with soul and personality.
Rooted in tradition and experience, Schonbek’s pioneering spirit continues to
thrive. We stay curious and constantly explore new ways to transform spaces with
lighting, without losing our foundation. While consumer preferences change, styles
evolve and generations pass, a lighting piece from Schonbek lives on, carrying
an enduring beauty not constricted by time or place. The true meaning of lighting
that lasts.
Here’s to the next 150 years.
We make lighting that lives forever.
Rooted in the American craftsmanship
tradition since 1870,
Schonbek makes timeless lighting
with an impact that lasts.
