While contemporary lighting has its perks, there’s something to be said for these incredibly festive and whimsical Caruso ceiling fans. The blades are available in either oar shaped bamboo blades, thin oval palm blades, or thin oval bamboo blades and create some stunning organic shapes as their gently turning shadows play on your walls and ceiling.

Caruso Ceiling Fan Blade from Fanimation

While the Caruso fan is hard to define, I would say it fits nicely in the tropical and rustic lighting categories. (Though it doesn’t feature a light, it certainly has a personality that shines.) The Caruso fan is also offered in many fixture and blade finish options, including Oil Rubbed Bronze, Antique Brass, and Pewter. The blades themselves come in a variety of shades from rich, dark brown tones of woven bamboo, to green palm leaves, a red wood finish, and even natural palm leaf finish. Any of these would look fabulous in homes with lots of wood furnishings and natural linen tones. (Wicker, bamboo, and Tiki lovers, I’m lookin’ at you!)

Winton Bathroom Wall Light by Hinkley Lighting

Bathroom wall lighting has become a big industry in recent years and Hinkley Lighting certainly has plenty of fabulous options for your bathroom decor. The new Winton lights are perfectly acceptable as vanity lighting, bathroom lighting, or simply accent lighting for your home furnishings. Winton is a retro-inspired design updated for today’s contemporary decors. The heavy, rectangular tube construction has forged details and a unique fitted glass panel design. Winton is also open at the top for your relamping convenience (relamping is a fancy term for replacing a bulbs) and lensed on the bottom as a subtle accent.

Contemporary lighting really appeals to many designers’ sense of negative space and minimal forms and the Winton wall light definitely fits these two descriptions. Using basic lines to create a presence, the Winton lights achieve both a futuristic and retro vibe and make for unusual decor that fits nicely with any modern home’s layout. Made of steel and featuring a Chrome finish paired with etched opal glass, Winton is a light to last the ages.

Winton Contemporary Bathroom Lighting by Hinkley Lighting

Wall sconces may take on many forms but few are as refined and simplistic as the elegant Winton contemporary lights. In terms of bathroom lighting, the Winton fixtures are available in three distinct forms. You can choose from 2-, 4-, and 6-light models, or collect all three to create a balance of short and long lighting structures in your bathroom.

The longest of the Winton contemporary wall lights features six 100 watt medium based bulbs and measures an impressive 37.25″ wide, a sleek 5″ high, and extends from the wall by a mere 5″. I can easily picture this light proudly illuminating a bathroom from above the vanity mirror–like the old starlet dressing room lights of the golden days of Hollywood.

The Winton lights are so new that we are still in the process of uploading them to the AffordableLamps.com website, so keep your eyes peeled for these fresh new beauties in the Hinkley Lighting Vanity Lights section, where you can also browse many other sophisticated wall sconces.

Maruko Art Glass Lamp by Lite Source

The new art glass table lamps are here! Lite Source is known for its inventive and unusual style and these new lamps definitely fit that bill. These art glass works of wonder come in incredible, practically surreal, shapes, colors, and sizes and each one has its own sense of character, poise, and presence. I have chosen four of my favorites to showcase here on the blog, but there are many more to see in the latest Lite Source art glass collections catalog.

My first favorite is the Maruko art glass discount table lamp which comes in two sizes, 31.5″ high and 19″ wide or 23″ high and 19″ wide. The basic circles are playful against the natural white and brown backgrounds and remind me of a simplified version of the painter Gustav Klimt’s style. The Maruko is perfect for simple, modern decor but adds a whimsical note to any corner, hallway, or end table.

Jorah New Lite Source Table Lamps

As far as contemporary lighting goes, these art glass lamps are practically undefinable. Jorah, another favorite, is a beautiful example of modern art glass refinement meeting more rustic, natural imagery. The softly painted leaves on the organic-looking shade are nicely complemented by the seductive swirls of the yellow and brown art glass. Place Jorah next to a window in your living room and watch the play of light between the leaves outside and the leaves of your new designer glass lamp. Measuring 34″ high and 16″ in diameter, Jorah is sure to turn some heads.

Cynzia Table Lamps | Art Glass by Lite Source

Discount table lamps are all the rage now as people are looking to pinch pennies and still decorate in style. For this reason, Cynzia might be my favorite of the new Lite Source art glass lamps. This gorgeous piece is a work of art and really blends both natural and geometric colors and shapes nicely. Measuring an impressive 33.5″ high and 14″ wide, Cynzia would look stunning on top of a bookshelf or nightstand. And if the colors are a little too blinding for you, these contemporary table lamps are available with simple white shades, which helps to showcase the beauty of the art glass a little more. Cynzia reminds me of fields of flowers in table lamps form.

Jaide Art Glass Discount Table Lamps by Lite Source

And lastly, the Jaide art glass lamp from Lite Source really caught my eye as I skimmed through their new catalog. Featuring a 3-way socket switch and an optional white shade (like most of the new Lite Source discount table lamps), Jaide functions as a night light and a decorating statement. Its glowing green glass paired with its zany, painted shade makes Jaide an eye catching addition to any contemporary lighting layout.

Tory Wall and Bathroom Lighting by Hinkley Lighting

Bathroom lighting is no longer something overlooked or ignored in today’s home design motifs and Hinkley Lighting is certain to be on the cutting edge of all things new and unusual. Tory definitely falls into that category as lush wall sconces constructed of steel and lovely opal glass, featuring a shiny brushed nickel finish.

Hinkley Lighting Tory Wall Light

Contemporary lighting has taken many turns over the years, but one thing is true: there is always a subtle elegance hiding behind that gentle glow. Tory’s unique tiered design features a softly bent diamond-shaped bar with its soothing contours repeated in a graphic wave pattern embossed on the etched opal glass.

Tory Bathroom Vanity Light by Hinkley Lighting

Hinkley has a reputation for their beautiful wall lighting and the Tory collection is no exception. These wall sconces include 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-light compositions. My personal favorite is the Tory 4-light which reminds me of a gentle arching waterfall. This particular fixture measures 32.75″ wide, 7.75″ high, and extends from the glass by 4.75″. Sleek and subtle I can easily envision these four 60 watt halogen lights brightening up the dreariest of bathroom lighting situations.

Lastly, one of my favorite features of the Tory wall light series is that they come with energy saving fluorescent lighting, G9 halogen bulbs. If you value the beauty of nature and want to protect it as you would a breathtaking waterfall, consider installing energy efficient lighting fixtures to save electricity and avoid wasting light. Tory wall sconces are the perfect way to move your home in a greener, more eco-friendly direction.

These contemporary bathroom lighting fixtures are so new, we’re still in the process of uploading them to the AffordableLamps.com website, but feel free to take a peek around the Hinkley Lighting section of the site to find more stunning wall lights like Tory.

Orion Transitional Table Lamps by Murray Feiss

These epic discount table lamps simply ooze character and class. The Orion collection certainly lives up to its name of strength and power, two qualities that Murray Feiss incorporates into all their beautiful lamps and lighting fixtures. Named after the giant Greek huntsman of ancient mythology (or perhaps the famous and bright constellation of the night sky), Orion features a rich and detailed Weathered Black finish. This finish is perfectly complemented by the simple, almost rustic, Toasted Wheat linen shade, which evokes memories of the peasant togas of ancient Greece.

Orion of Ancient Greece

In terms of contemporary lighting, the Orion table lamps are really marvelous examples of the simplicity and elegance of modern design. What makes them transitional is their earthy tones and unusual, rounded forms. Most contemporary lighting is geometric and minimalist, using sharp edges and lines to delineate form. With the Orion table lamps, forms are flowing, organic, round, and naturally soothing.

The Orion collection is available in two styles–one shorter, more bulbous table lamp that measures 26″ high and 19″ wide in an attractive oval shape. The taller, more slender Orion lamp measures a stately 33.5″ high and 18″ wide in a more dainty oval shape. Either of these impressive transitional style table lamps would look powerful and luxurious in any modern decor setting. At this price and with this quality, it’s practically impossible not to invite Orion into your home. Would you say “no” to the son of the Greek sea-god Poseidon? I didn’t think so.
