The clean-lined frame of the Valerio Chandelier is set with solid 6-inch by 6-inch crystal cubes with small holes drilled in the center into which the bulbs are inserted. Ian Thornton, who designed the silver chandelier, says, "Lines are carved into the sides of the crystal cubes to create more refraction and enhance the sparkle of the fixture." The Valerio has a silver leaf finish that also contributes to the overall brightness of the crystal chandelier.
