Classic Outdoor Lighting
In this day and age, the majority of the new outdoor lighting fixtures seem a little bit boring. In centuries past, cast iron candle lanterns brought unique character to an outdoor space, and while using a candle doesn’t make much sense in modern times, there’s no reason modern lighting fixtures should lack character. Installing vintage lights outdoors is a great way to add character to an outdoor space. Unique vintage lighting wrought from metal and designed to appeal to our classic sensibilities makes a great addition to a porch, garage, or even deck.
In addition to having distinctive character, vintage lighting tends to last much longer than other lighting fixtures. We all know that things were made much sturdier back in their initial conception, and vintage lighting is no exception!
