Picture the lights you'd find in a farmhouse kitchen or a small-town general store a hundred-plus years ago. Simple shapes, glass shades, and metal with a warm, worn finish. 1800's lighting was built to be useful first, and that plain honesty is why it still looks so good today. These lights fit right in with farmhouse, cottage, and rustic homes. They look just as nice in a newer house that could use a little character.
Each light is put together by hand by skilled craftspeople in our own shop. We're one of the only lighting companies still making its lights in America, and we're proud of that. You can feel the difference when you hold one. The metal is solid, the glass is real, and the parts are UL-rated for safety. These are lights made to hang in your home for a very long time.
Our late 1800's lighting draws on the years when gas lamps were giving way to the first electric bulbs. You'll see schoolhouse globes, ribbed glass, and gently curved arms that look right at home in an old Victorian or a cozy cottage. Hang one over the kitchen table or along the front hall, and the whole room feels a little more settled.
Our 1800's lighting fixtures come as pendants, wall sconces, flush mounts, and chandeliers, so you can carry the same look from room to room. Put a pair of sconces beside the bathroom mirror. Add a pendant over the kitchen sink or a lantern-style light by the back door. A few pieces together make the house feel like it's been loved for generations.
Shopping for 1800's lighting should be easy. Every light ships free, and a portion of every sale helps provide food, water, and shelter for children in need. Take your time, pick the pieces that feel like home, and we'll get them to your door.
