Designer Lighting Sample Sale - Monday January 17th thru Sunday January 23rd - By Appointment Only. 26 T St. NW. Please call 917 334 1488 to schedule an appointment.

Zach Sherif, an established NYC interior and lighting designer - and a now a new and proud fulltime resident of Bloomingdale - is opening up his studio and selling off the remaining 2010 inventory of his renowned and unique one-of-a-kind hand blown glass, brass and iron chandeliers. Zach has been credited for bringing chandeliers back in to style and is touted for his creativity, inspired vision and his passionate and intense love of lighting. Zach believes that ``…lighting is the single most important element of design in any room - it single handedly defines the mood.`` Clients include, to name just a few, Sarah Jessica Parker, Whoopi Goldberg, A-Rod and Naomi Campbell.

This is a remarkable opportunity to own one of his celebrated chandeliers - at 50% - 70% off - or have him custom make you a piece to size from his current stock of glass. Prices range from $175.00 for a smaller piece to $1,600 for a large regal dining or living room piece that would do justice to any home in the area. Zach is also available for interior design work - so if you need a quick makeover, staging or design for a single room or your entire home, give him a call to get a free estimate. He has an upcoming show in the spring of new lighting works at a local gallery - keep an eye out for it - you'll see it posted here!
