Moravian Star Lighting
Who says you need to go all Swiss cheesy on your hallway ceiling…reach for the stars!
For the fine folk who care to get design-geeky about the history of Moravian stars…Moravian refers to a small group of Germanic protestants who fled to America in the 18th century.
A professor at a Moravian school created a Moravian star to teach a geometry lesson, and this led to its rising as a symbol of the Star of Bethlehem. Traditional Moravian stars have 26 points.
