Each piece undergoes meticulous assembly with copper-foiled glass joints, ensuring both structural integrity and artistic beauty. This lighting style complements period homes while maintaining contemporary functionality through UL-listed electrical components.

Custom Lighting solutions tailored to specific architectural requirements. Clients may select from 13 accent glass colors, two primary glass options, and multiple wood finishes including cherry and oak. Our artisans accommodate unique dimensions and design modifications while maintaining the integrity of original Craftsman aesthetics. Minimum orders apply for complete custom projects versus modifications of existing designs.
Wall Sconces
Handmade wall sconces featuring either handblown glass shades or stained glass panels. These fixtures incorporate the same quality materials and construction methods as our larger lighting pieces. Available in multiple glass color combinations and wood finishes, they serve as both functional illumination sources and artistic wall decorations that complement Mission and Craftsman interior styles.
Craftsman Lighting
Authentic Craftsman style lighting inspired by early 20th-century American design.

Our designs maintain historical accuracy while incorporating modern safety standards, making them suitable for both restoration projects and contemporary spaces seeking vintage aesthetics.

Available in multiple sizes and configurations, they can be customized to match specific interior color schemes through selection of glass colors and wood stains.
