Make a Design Statement with Table Lamps

These are just a sample of our one-of-a-kind table lamps we make in our studio. Upgrading lighting is one of the easiest ways to instantly update your home decor. And the most effortless way to change your lighting is by using table lamps. All you need to do is put a plug in an outlet and, voila, instant ambiance. We make a diverse selection of lamps in both shape and color palette. When you want to improve your space think lighting. The beauty of our lamps is the extraordinary variety of style - shapes, forms, and textures. Stop by the gallery and view our complete selection.

New Table Designs

We've taken a classic design and added a contemporary look. Done in extruded Satin Aluminum instead of wood,  these tables are then enhanced with a custom tile design. Tube size is 2" square by whatever height and length you wish. We can make any size - cocktail table (20" x 20" x 15"), dining room/kitchen table, or credenza/hall table (shown above 60" x 15" x 30"). Stop by the gallery to see our many new items for your home or office. We have new lighting designs plus custom designed wall pieces.

This Years Mother's Day Special

Every year we try to offer a new and special item for the occasion of Mother's Day. This year we've selected a truly unique gift - our Ikebana bowl. Ikebana, or Japanese flower arranging, uplifts both the spirit and the environment and what would be a better gift after such a long winter season. Celebrate spring by displaying just a few cut flowers in this beautiful bowl throughout the year. We're offering our Ikebana bowls in two of our signature color patterns - Fiesta (red) and Bordeaux (neutral). Each bowl includes a heavy-duty brass pin frog that allows you to secure and arrange your cut flowers in a simple but beautiful arrangement. Your Ikebana bowl will already have an arrangement of fresh flowers that we'll provide. All you need to do is order by April 29th to ensure you'll have yours by Mother's Day. Pick up at our gallery either Friday, May 6th or Saturday, May 7th.
