Energy Saving Mini Pendant Ceiling Light Victorian by Wilmette Lighting

This coy ceiling light is by Wilmette Lighting. As pendant lights, these mini Victorian fixtures can be displayed as multiple pendants on a monorail track and as monopoints. Wilmette Lighting truly excels in combining the look of authentic period lighting with modern technology. For example, this Mini Victorian Pendant light can use LED, halogen or incandescent lamping. These vintage lighting fixtures look so appealing over a kitchen counter. However, these can also be used away from dining areas. Did you consider hanging multiple mini pendant lights down the hallway? Have you thought about using two mini Victorian ceiling lights, instead of sconces, in your bedroom? This 1-light mini pendant lighting fixture is 10.1″ high and 5.8″ wide. If you choose to attach this Victorian pendant to a monorail, you will need to buy a freejack connector.

This weekend I revisited one of my favorite oil paintings at the Getty Museum, “A Young Girl Defends Herself Against Eros” by Adolphe William Bouguereau. Bouguereau painted this in France during England’s Victorian Era. The young woman, in the oil painting, has a kind but firm expression when toddler cupid tries to climb her knee. She’s is not interested in any of love’s mischief. She knows what trouble it can be. I look at this oil painting with my husband and smile.

Lancaster 4-Light Table Lamps by House of Troy

This bronze table lighting fixture is perfect for a contemporary or traditional room. The Lancaster by House of Troy is a transitional style. The oil rubbed bronze finish makes it suitable for unisex living rooms or bedrooms with masculine decor. Its understated design also works well in a room with busy decor as a contrast. The Lancaster table light stands 31.75″.

I like to visit Remodelista for interior design ideas. I am interested in Robert Dye Architects’ photos of a London home with contemporary living room that leads to the patio with a bright green L-shaped couch with black decorative pillows. This is an example of where Lancaster can be a good fit. These  transitional table lamps would also look good next to an American black walnut daybed with leather cushions by Craig Bassam. I saw that on Design within Reach.

4-Light Foyer Pendant Belle Chasse by World Imports Lighting

Katy Perry may make a reference to a chandelier knocked to a floor in her song, “Last Friday Night”, but chandeliers aren’t the only shiny lights.

Foyer lights are more suitable for entry ways. I suggest you choose Belle Chasse by World Imports Lighting if you like sophisticated design that features geometrical shapes.

Foyer pendants are sometimes mistaken, by home lighting shoppers, for chandeliers. However, foyer lighting fixtures are really different creatures. Typically, foyer lights usually have “arms” that are tucked in, rather than splayed out like chandeliers. Also foyer lights are tall and thin. Imagine an elongated pendant suspended from the ceiling of your entry way.

Don’t you want to impress your guests with the first light they see when they step into your home? Sure you do! Entice your guests with Belle Chasse hand-wrought lighting masterpiece. Go through our online site to get it for an affordable price. World Imports Lighting’s craftmanship is apparent in its  fine iron rings.

This ceiling light by World Imports Lighting is 26″ high and 15″ wide. Its canopy depth is 5″. Belle Chasse by World Imports is a transitional foyer light. This means it can hold its own in a traditional American home or house with contemporary European furnishings. Who can argue with a birdcage of 4-lights?  The fixtures has a handsome rust iron finish. It comes with a 10′ chain and 12′ wire.

LED Pendant Lighting by Besa Lighting

I asked my husband to take me to see the mineral collection at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles. Last February, this was my idea of a Valentine’s Day celebration. Why? Have you seen garnet from Ramona, California? Have you gawked at tourmaline from Minas Gerais, Brazil? Marilyn Monroe may have sang, “Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend” but I am in interested in all gems.

This gem is from Besa Lighting. Sure, the Scope family of pendant light fixtures has glass shades in frosted amethyst but it’s a treasure because of its LED energy efficient lighting option. Its siblings are mini pendant lighting fixtures and spotlights powered by halogen lamping. The contemporary pendant light fixture is as good looking as its brothers and sisters with colored glass cylinders 4″ high and 2.375″ diameter. You can select colored glass other than frosted olive, amethyst or armagnac for your pendant light fixture. I am a sucker for amethyst.

These 12 volt mini pendant lights use LED lamps. You can choose to use Besa Lighting’s Scope LED as a flat monopoint glass pendant lamp, with jack only or as part of a Besa monorail. I would like two Besa Lighting fixtures, an olive and frosted amethyst LED lighting above my writing desk at home. These pendant lights are great for task lighting.

Take a trip to your local natural history museum to compare Besa Lighting’s mineral names to authentic earth gems.

Toy Collection 2-Light Wall Light by Zaneen Lighting

This handsome, energy efficient lighting fixture turns heads. Its name is Toy. Zaneen Lighting picked the ideal name for its 2-light, matte stainless steel finish wall sconce. Toy. It just shows the company’s vivacious sense of irony. Zaneen Lighting prides itself in providing brilliant, intelligent lighting for the discerning consumer. I’d add that this bath light is perfect for young stylish gentlemen. Although this luxury bathroom wall lamp may not be suitable for a first apartment, it is a contemporary bathroom lighting fixture for a first home.

This is a sweet, energy-saving light for a modern bathroom. The price tag for these bathroom lighting fixtures are not cheap but you are paying for sleek European design. If you are a fashion- savvy, young male reader of AskMen and NylonGuysmag, you know what I mean. I am not a guy but I like reading “The Bathroom Scale” part of hotel reviews by AskMen’s Jeremy Berger and Adam Hodge. This is where the style journalists rate the hotel’s bathroom design. Reading about a hotel designed by 19 world famous architects and designers is thrilling for me.

This luxury bathroom wall sconce is made for the reader who adores elements of The Aubrey Santiago hotel, its bohemian vibe and abandoned mansion look. The same fan is likely to visit the MoMA and appreciate the blacked out zen cave of Silken Puerta America’s hotel bathrooms. If you like traditional and contemporary wall sconce lighting, you’ll also like this transitional Zaneen Lighting wall light. If I am right about you, my guess it that you  might prefer haute cuisine over fast food and downtown Madrid over camping.

If you are looking for a vanity light that growls sexy then choose this light fixture for your modern home. The contemporary design of Toy is functional and luxurious! This ADA compliant wall sconce is 3.25″ high and 46.75″ diameter. It is 3.25″ deep.

Contemporary Table Lamp Crystal by House of Troy

I love these contemporary glass table lamps by House of Troy. Unlike its sibling from the Marquis family, it does not have a round amber linen shade.

The four sided-shade complements the rectangular crystal stem. This causes the whole table lamp to appear more modern. Its simplicity makes it versatile. You can place it in a teen daughter or teen son’s dorm room.

It can also be placed next to upscale modern furnishings in your living room. Your room decor can include earth tones or monochromatic silver and black. You can use this 2-light table lamp to add further drama to a room with contemporary wall art and geometrical patterned rugs. The polished silver gives this contemporary lighting fixture a cool hue.

This glass table lamp would look striking in a milk white living  room or a bedroom layered in different blues. It would also look spectacular against a scarlet wall. If this table lamp looks too austere to you, soften the decor of the rest of your modern room with natural textures such as nubbly wool decorative pillows or sisal rugs. Besides fitting well in youthful settings, this lamp is also great for unisex lounges. The geometrical shape and transparent glass suggests an appealing androgyny. Perfect for a bachelor pad and equally suitable for family room.
