Orion’s Crystal Sparkles in More Ways than One

Sparkling crystal finials beckon to us, especially during this holiday time. But what can really make your eyes light up is when that beauty is matched by even more attractive low prices—like under $75 each, retail. Put the two together, and you have Orion’s Bohemia Crystal.

“We’re offering the look and elegance of crystal,” said Atul Patel, President of Orion, “but at a fraction of the price. Beauty and value together make for a very popular product.”

The Bohemia Crystal line includes 22 crystal finials, offered in shapes that have almost as much variety as a winter’s snowflake: round, oblong, oval, circular, square… All come on Orion’s well-known round or square iron rods in ¾”, 1” and 1-1/14” diameters. All are available in 35 Iron Art finishes, plus custom colors.

“Bohemia Crystal can also be used with a number of our traversing rods, which we offer with Somfy motorization or with manual draw,” added Patel. “No matter what the time of year, when you can get crystal finials like these that retail at these prices, we think it will make you feel like celebrating.”

Happy Holidays from all of us at Orion!

(West Palm Beach, Florida) – It’s a popular home styling and décor product line overseas that is now making its way to many homes in North America. MagnaClips magnetic curtain tie-backs make it easy to cinch up drapes and curtains with a uniquely stylish flair. MagnaClips are creatively designed and styled magnetic discs that sport a tie-back strip in the middle. The tie-back wraps around the curtain or drape and the magnetic halves connect together holding the curtain in place without having to be connected to a wall. The innovative design of the MagnaClips prevents the need for tools or drilling into the wall to set-up.

Lightweight yet sturdy, MagnaClips provides a wide array of variations and options. The versatile MagnaClip allows for many different curtain designs. In fact, one of the many things that set MagnaClips apart is that they allow for simple adjustments of curtains to alter the level of light that comes into the room. With most traditional tiebacks the drapes have to be tied all the way back.

MagnaClips come in multiple colors and even different shapes. They sell for $14.95/pair and are available at: www.magnaclips.com
