Sixteen globes, each carrying its own hand worked ribbons of glass, arranged in an oval and hung from a solid brass frame on adjustable extension rods, so it can be fitted as a full chandelier with drop or sat close to the ceiling as a flush light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIn Dries Ribbon Glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDries Ribbon glass is worked during blowing so that fine internal ribbons of texture run through the surface of the glass, scattering light unevenly rather than diffusing it flat. Across sixteen globes, the cumulative effect is a chandelier that never quite settles into a single, uniform glow, each sphere catching and throwing light slightly differently to its neighbour as the bulbs warm up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eChoose Your Finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvailable in Black Gunmetal, Lacquered Burnished Brass, or Polished Nickel, all hand finished in Poland. Lacquered Burnished Brass tends to suit the warmth of Dries Ribbon glass particularly well, while Black Gunmetal and Polished Nickel give the fitting a more contemporary, graphic edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSixteen E14 sockets each take a 5W LED bulb, included as standard, producing around 8000 lumens combined at 2700K and roughly 80W total, and the fitting is dimmable with a compatible low voltage electronic dimmer. It measures approximately 155cm wide, 105cm deep and 56cm high, with each globe 20cm in diameter, and comes with three extension rods of around 15cm, 30cm and 45cm for a maximum overall height near 131cm. Complete it weighs approximately 26.6kg, so additional ceiling support is recommended before fitting. No IP rating is published, so this is intended for dry indoor rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere It Works Best\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGiven its scale and the complexity of the Dries Ribbon glass, this suits a room where the fitting is meant to be the main event, a formal dining room, a hotel or restaurant dining space, or a large open plan living area with the ceiling height to show it off. As a flush fitting it still carries real texture and interest even without the drop, for rooms where a full chandelier hang is not practical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMade by Schwung\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSchwung was founded in 2014 in Namysłów, Poland, by Belgian designer Dominique Sente and Dutch designer Rudi Nijssen. Schwung describes Dries Ribbon as the most demanding of its three glass techniques to produce, requiring glassblowers with considerable experience to introduce the ribboned texture consistently across a run of sixteen globes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGood to Know\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to order in Poland, estimated lead time 4 to 6 weeks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot returnable, as with all Schwung fittings, since each one is made to order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16 x E14 5W LED bulbs included, 2700K, approximately 8000 lumens combined, dimmable with a compatible low voltage electronic dimmer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions approximately 155cm W x 105cm D x 56cm H, globe diameter 20cm, maximum overall height around 131cm with extension rods fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight approximately 26.6kg, additional ceiling support recommended\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShips with extension rods so it can hang as a chandelier or sit close to the ceiling as a flush fitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass care: clean regularly with a soft cloth or duster, a damp cloth can also be used, dry the frame fully before switching back on, do not use cleaning agents on brass parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlass care: clean the outside with a soft dry cloth, use a damp cloth first on dirtier glass, a gentle glass cleaner will lift grease\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoonlight Design recommends installation by a registered NICEIC electrician\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions People Ask\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs every Dries Ribbon globe on this chandelier different?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, the ribboned texture is created individually during glass blowing, so no two of the sixteen globes are identical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this fitting need special ceiling support?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGiven its weight of approximately 26.6kg, additional ceiling support is recommended alongside installation by a qualified electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I fit this closer to the ceiling in a lower room?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, use fewer or none of the included extension rods to sit the fitting close to the ceiling as a flush light rather than a full drop chandelier.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Schwung","offers":[{"title":"Black Gunmetal","offer_id":51597416235335,"sku":"B612-202-FA-B16-CE","price":5395.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Lacquered Burnished Brass","offer_id":51597416268103,"sku":"B612-201-FA-B16-CE","price":5395.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Polished Nickel","offer_id":51597416300871,"sku":"B612-200-FA-B16-CE","price":6744.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0852\/6515\/4375\/files\/ChatGPTImageAug28_2026_11_43_26AM.png?v=1787913842","url":"https:\/\/www.moonlightdesign.co.uk\/products\/schwung-orion-oval-16-light-chandelier-flush-dries-ribbon-glass","provider":"Moonlight Design","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
