VINTAGE LIGHTS & PERIOD LIGHTING  / Colonial Lighting

Colonial lighting options are of interest to those with houses built before 1840, but also to those looking to furnish a Colonial Revival house built in the early 20th century.

Traditional colonial style lights include pre-gas, pre-electric lighting (including pieces that have been adapted for electricity): patinated copper lanterns; chandeliers with “tapers”; spiderlike armed wire chandeliers; crystal candelabra; onion lamps; mirrored sconces.
