Crystal Cage LED Linear Suspension Chandelier Gold

New for 2022, The Crystal Cage LED Linear Suspension shines powerful LED luminaries through a stainless steel cage full of gorgeous chandelier crystal for a sleek linear suspension that provides the most natural shimmer and sparkle available in any contemporary light fixture while providing plenty of light.

As the use of LED technology in decorative lights has proliferated in recent years, we noticed two issues: 1. The more aesthetically pleasing LED fixtures often don't provide very much light; and 2. The way that light is diffused usually isn't very compelling -- it's often just frosted plastic.

We wondered -- what if we could diffuse the light with crystal, and do it in such a way that the fixture would provide a useful amount of light.

For this task, we have employed powerful LED light engines that provide an impressive amount of light - over 3000 lumens. These luminaries shine through a stainless steel "cage" filled with thousands of high-quality chandelier crystals. The result is a light that provides a satisfying amount of warm light while catching the eye with plenty of shimmer and movement and refraction.

There are no power bricks to hide, making installation simple and easy. An on-board surge protector protects the electronics.

The Crystal Cage LED Linear Suspension dims on a conventional wall dimmer without hesitation or flicker, just like an incandescent light.

This fixture is 36" x 5.5" x 5.5" long. We also make a 48" version and a 12" long pendant.

Custom lengths, finishes, and technical specs for this fixture can be made by special order.

Wescover creator since 2022
Industrial-glam lighting from New York City

For the first part of his career, Michael McHale was an entertainment lawyer in the television industry, doing such things as drafting licenses for television formats such as Who Wants To Be a Millionaire? and The Weakest Link. While the work as certainly creative-adjacent, it didn't scratch a long-buried creative itch.

When he went to a high-end design store to buy a light fixture for his apartment, he was disappointed with his factory-made, cookie-cutter choices. "Lighting is important" he remembered telling himself at the time. He thought maybe he could make something more interesting than what was on offer.

Inspiration came during a trip to his local hardware store when he noticed the rough gas pipes and fittings. When combined with high quality crystal, he imagined that the result could be quite striking.

That combination turned out to be far more interesting than he had originally envisaged. When constructed properly - so that contrasting elements are displayed in equal measure, McHale fixtures become studies in the interplay between rough and smooth, masculine and feminine, formal and informal, . There was nothing else like it out there.

There still isn't.

McHale realized that there was a deep conservatism in contemporary lighting. Even now, most of the light fixtures we buy differ little from the mid-century lighting of 75 years ago. McHale's mission is to change that.

Soon after that work was presented to the public in 2007, McHale was profiled in The New York Times and business took off. MMD light fixtures started appearing in, variously, Times Square mega-restaurants, Fashion Week VIP lounges, Doha boutiques, Moscow cafes, in the homes of celebrities, designers, Saudi royals, US senators, tech thought leaders, and regular people who are confident in their own good taste.

While this work has often been copied over the years, it is easy to discern an original MMD chandelier by its quality and the care taken in its presentation. MMD customers know that Michael McHale Designs' lighting is about something.
