John and I were out shopping for something for the house one Saturday morning when he came around the corner with that “look what I found” smile on his face.

As soon as I saw the smile, I knew exactly what it meant. It was the “this would make a cool light fixture” smile.

We found this old French chimney cap, and now it’s on the bench being transformed into a pendant light. If everything goes as planned, the light will glow through the side slits and turn this piece into something cool.

A little vintage, a little imagination, and hopefully a conversation piece.

We’ll share more as it comes together.

We brought this vintage Rococo Revival chandelier back to life.

The chandelier has been fully rewired with new candelabra sockets, a new ground wire, a cast brass ceiling canopy, and solid brass chain. We chose to preserve the original wooden socket covers rather than replacing them, as they are part of the fixture’s history and add to its authentic character.

Sharing a few details about our Monterrey sconce.

Our hook racks are back!

Over the past few years, fully custom fixture work took up so much of our time that we had to set aside a few of our smaller favorites. With custom projects now on the back burner, we’re excited to bring some of those pieces back.

Shown here is our 5-hook solid brass hook rack in Vintage Brass.

Our Breckenridge lamp features a base inspired by vintage canisters and a textured dome shade. The texturing is done by removing tiny bits of brass one mark at a time.

The lamp feels equal parts sculptural, nostalgic, and quietly special.

We knew we had to have these vintage brass church pendants the moment we saw them.

They were a not so attractive lacquered brass. We cleaned them up, rewired them, changed the sockets, gave the crosses a bit of texture, and patina’d them a rich dark bronze with a little distressing for the brass to peek through.

Available now on our website.

13 years in and people are still surprised that we “actually make the fixtures here”.

So, for the record…

Yes, we make the fixtures in our little shop.

The proof is in the brass dust that is literally everywhere.

It’s really just John and I for the most part(with our kids helping out when they can).

The majority of what we build is custom.

Most of our fixtures online are customized in one way or another when ordered.

We have a soft spot for vintage fixtures and feel a duty to save them from the landfill.

Our lead times aren’t everyone’s favorite.

The fixtures that John is working on in this photo are headed to a casino on the Las Vegas Strip.

All built right here in our small shop on my great grandfather’s old potato farm.

Not exactly factory made. And that’s the way we like it.

We keep telling ourselves… we can’t keep everything. But this vintage M.G. Wheeler Sightlight is really testing us.

For now, it’s available on our website 😉

A girl can change her mind. 🤷‍♀️

We decided to add more texture to our Monterrey sconce. The texturing is time consuming, but SO much fun!

What a beautiful night shot!

Captured by - one of the sconces we reproduced for home.

There’s something about seeing these fixtures in their element that never gets old.
