Dishwasher Safe Chandelier

The vast majority of chandeliers do not get cleaned on a regular basis and with good reason: it is a huge hassle to take the thing down, disassemble it, clean each piece and reverse the process. It's a shame, because few things are as beautiful as light reflected through perfectly cleaned crystal. The Schonbek Da Vinci Chandelier could make the whole process much more convenient. It is the first ever machine washable chandelier. The spherical, crystal-covered org is built on a metal frame that separates into several pieces, allowing the chandelier to fit into a standard-sized dishwasher for easily cleaning. Sizes range from 10"-24" in diameter and you can opt to have the Da Vinci built with Swarovski Spectra crystal ($1,750 to $8,795) or Swarovski Strauss ($2,625 to $15,295).
