Part of the ODYSSEY Collection, this distinctive design invites us on an imaginary journey where memories of the past meet contemporary aesthetics, pure geometry and poetic lighting. Its architecture features a vertical composition of 12 luminous elements in varying heights, arranged in a harmonious cascade within a refined metallic structure.

Crafted from brass and available with three signature glass options, Opal Mat, Marbled and Dries Ribbon, the Odyssey 12 offers a rich variety of decorative possibilities. The chandelier accommodates 12 E14 LED light sources rated at 4 W each, providing a total nominal power consumption of 48 W, a stated luminous output of 2640 lumens and a warm colour temperature of 3000 K. Measuring 47.2 cm in length, with an adjustable suspension height ranging from 88.8 to 178.8 cm, this designer chandelier makes a remarkable architectural statement. Its sculptural character makes it an exceptional choice for elegant living rooms, contemporary dining areas, generous entrance halls and sophisticated reception spaces.

A sculptural composition of twelve illuminated glass diffusers

The Odyssey 12 is distinguished by an extraordinary lighting architecture built around twelve sculpted glass diffusers in varying heights. Each element features a cylindrical silhouette with gently rounded ends, resembling an illuminated column suspended in space. Their arrangement creates a balanced cascade in which the different volumes interact without appearing uniform. The clean metallic lines of the structure introduce geometric precision, providing an elegant contrast with the soft curves of the glass. This meeting of linear elements and rounded forms creates a subtle visual rhythm that characterises the aesthetic of the ODYSSEY Collection. The 12 luminous points are positioned at different heights, giving the composition a sense of suspended movement and architectural lightness. When illuminated, the glass diffusers reveal their individual textures and nuances, while the warm light highlights the contours of the cylinders and the reflections of the brass. Depending on the viewing angle, the composition reveals new perspectives, with overlapping forms that enhance its spatial depth. The Odyssey 12 becomes a genuine lighting sculpture, capable of attracting attention even when switched off and transforming the atmosphere of a room through its distinctive design.

The ODYSSEY Collection: a journey through memory, imagination and contemporary design

The ODYSSEY Collection by Schwung invites us on an imaginary journey into a world where objects seem to belong simultaneously to the past and the future. Inspired by familiar shapes from our collective memory and the dreamlike landscapes of contemporary creativity, the collection explores the possibilities of a geometric design language based on pure forms and balanced proportions. Its lighting creations recall gentle machines captured in motion, with silhouettes that appear suspended between different eras. This poetic approach combines nostalgic references with a distinctly contemporary aesthetic, creating objects that feel both comforting and surprising. The ODYSSEY Collection is particularly characterised by compositions of cylinders, curves and metallic structures that play with proportions and spatial perspectives. Materials play an essential role in this creative philosophy: brass introduces warmth and depth, while the different glass options provide a variety of lighting effects and decorative expressions. In the Odyssey 12, this inspiration takes the form of a cascade of twelve sculpted elements, whose arrangement evokes a slow and harmonious movement. The chandelier becomes an artistic interpretation of travel, where every diffuser contributes to a composition that stimulates the imagination while maintaining a timeless elegance.

Twelve glass diffusers in three different heights

One of the defining features of the Odyssey 12 is the variety of dimensions among its 12 glass diffusers, creating a rhythmic and balanced lighting composition. The chandelier includes 3 diffusers measuring Ø 10 × H 15 cm, 3 diffusers measuring Ø 10 × H 22.5 cm and 6 diffusers measuring Ø 10 × H 30 cm. This variation in height introduces visual dynamism while maintaining a sense of unity through the shared diameter of 10 cm. The luminous cylinders feature gently rounded ends that soften their silhouette and reinforce their sculptural character. The brass structure connects these different elements within a vertical composition where each volume finds its natural place. With an overall length of 47.2 cm, the Odyssey 12 retains relatively compact horizontal dimensions despite its twelve light points, while its height creates a remarkable decorative presence. The pendant offers a minimum height of 88.8 cm and a maximum height of 178.8 cm, allowing its installation to be adapted to different architectural proportions. Its weight of 11.5 kg requires an appropriately strong ceiling mounting point. The variety of diffuser sizes is one of the signature design features of the Odyssey 12, whose beauty lies in the balance between repetition, variation and geometric harmony.

Three signature glass options for distinctive lighting effects

The Odyssey 12 is available with three different glass options, each bringing a distinctive visual identity to the composition. Opal Mat, made from matte triplex soda-lime opal glass, features a soft, uniform white appearance that highlights the purity of the cylindrical volumes and creates a calm, harmonious aesthetic. Marbled, crafted from matte soda-lime glass with a marble effect, introduces a more decorative dimension through its subtle patterns inspired by the natural veining of stone. This finish combines the delicacy of glass with the elegant character of marble, giving the diffusers a distinctive presence. Dries Ribbon, made from transparent borosilicate glass with a ribbon effect, offers a more graphic expression in which the details of the glass become an essential part of the design. Its transparency reveals the forms and lighting reflections, creating a refined contrast with the metallic structure. These three variations allow a choice between a minimalist expression, a mineral-inspired aesthetic and a more decorative composition. Combined with the different brass finishes, they offer numerous possibilities for personalising the Odyssey 12 and integrating it into contemporary, classically inspired or highly expressive interiors.

Five refined metal finishes for a personalised chandelier

The Odyssey 12 is available in five carefully selected metal finishes, each offering a distinctive decorative character. Lacquered Burnished Brass (LBB) features warm, deep tones that emphasise the richness of the metal and introduce a timeless elegance to the structure. Black Gunmetal (BGM) offers a darker, contemporary aesthetic, highlighting the contrast between the metallic lines and the illuminated glass diffusers. Polished Nickel (PN) is distinguished by its glossy surface and silver-toned reflections, creating a bright and sophisticated appearance particularly suited to modern interiors. Classic Bronze provides a warm and understated finish that complements the sculptural forms of the chandelier. Heritage Bronze recalls the character of traditional metalwork, bringing depth and timeless appeal to classically inspired or vintage interiors. These five finishes can be combined with the three signature glass options of the ODYSSEY Collection, allowing a wide range of aesthetic combinations. The choice of metal influences the perception of the structure, while the selected glass determines the decorative appearance of the diffusers and their interaction with light. This variety of personalisation options makes the Odyssey 12 a versatile chandelier that can complement both minimalist settings and more expressive interiors.

Twelve dimmable E14 LED light sources for warm illumination

The Odyssey 12 is designed to accommodate 12 E14 LED light sources rated at 4 W each, giving a total nominal power consumption of 48 W. Schwung specifies a total luminous output of 2640 lumens and a colour temperature of 3000 K, producing a pleasant warm white light suitable for living areas and reception spaces. The arrangement of the twelve light sources at different heights creates a layered lighting composition, with each glass diffuser contributing to the overall atmosphere. Depending on the selected glass finish, different visual effects emerge: Opal Mat creates a soft and uniform appearance, Marbled highlights decorative nuances, while transparent Dries Ribbon glass reveals more of the composition's intricate details. The Odyssey 12 also supports dimming, exclusively with electronic ELV trailing-edge dimmers, provided that compatible dimmable LED light sources are used. This allows the light intensity to be adjusted according to the desired atmosphere, from generous illumination for everyday activities to a softer evening setting. The chandelier operates on a 220–240 V electrical supply and carries an IP20 protection rating, making it suitable for dry indoor environments. With its twelve luminous points, the Odyssey 12 combines functional lighting with an exceptional decorative presence.

Adjustable suspension height with three included extension rods

The Odyssey 12 has been designed to accommodate different ceiling heights and architectural requirements. Its minimum height of 88.8 cm and maximum height of 178.8 cm provide several installation possibilities, depending on the proportions of the room and the desired decorative effect. The chandelier comes with three extension rods measuring 15, 30 and 45 cm in length, allowing the suspension configuration to be adapted to the project. This flexibility is particularly valuable for showcasing the vertical composition of the chandelier, whose twelve glass diffusers extend to different heights. In a dining room, the suspension height can be selected to position the illuminated cascade harmoniously above the table. In generous entrance halls or prestigious reception areas, a longer configuration can enhance the sculptural presence of the fixture. With its 47.2 cm overall length, the Odyssey 12 has a relatively compact horizontal footprint while making a remarkable vertical architectural statement. Its weight of 11.5 kg requires professional installation on a suitable ceiling structure. The included extension rods provide flexibility for different interior design projects while maintaining the harmonious balance of the lighting composition.

A sculptural chandelier for contemporary interiors and sophisticated reception spaces

With its 12 glass diffusers in varying heights, the Odyssey 12 by Schwung becomes an exceptional centrepiece in interiors where lighting plays an essential decorative and architectural role. Suspended above a dining table, it creates an elegant lighting composition that enhances shared moments and introduces a sophisticated atmosphere. In a contemporary living room, it becomes a suspended sculpture that pairs beautifully with clean-lined furniture and natural materials. Its vertical architecture is equally suited to generous entrance halls, stairwells and interiors with high ceilings, where the twelve luminous elements can fully express their sculptural character. The Odyssey 12 also finds its place in design hotels, refined restaurants, reception halls and luxurious residential projects, where its distinctive form contributes to a carefully considered decorative identity. The choice between five metal finishes and three glass options allows the chandelier to complement different interior styles, while its dimming compatibility offers additional flexibility in lighting design. With its 47.2 cm overall length, adjustable suspension height of 88.8–178.8 cm, 11.5 kg weight, 12 E14 lamp holders, 10 cm diameter glass diffusers and 2-year manufacturer's warranty, the Odyssey 12 combines refined materials, geometric precision and contemporary artistic expression. More than a conventional pendant chandelier, it embodies the poetic spirit of the ODYSSEY Collection, inviting us on an imaginary journey between memory, imagination and timeless design.
