Industrial Lighting

INDUSTRIAL STYLE

Industrial floor lamps, bar stools, desks and other industrial-style furnishings have experienced a resurgence in popularity with the rise of interest in minimalist design.

It's a look that celebrates the past even as it suggests vigor, productivity and brawn. The newly chic industrial style of decor repurposes the simple, sturdy furniture of an earlier world of commerce — brushed-metal storage cabinets and display shelves, task lamps and pendant lights with enameled shades, work tables with worn wooden tops and cast-iron bases — and couples them with aesthetic touches emblematic of energy and optimism, from bright upholstery fabrics to flowers.

The rise in prominence of the industrial style has come hand-in-hand with the residential repurposing of former manufacturing and warehouse districts throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. In many loft apartments created in shuttered factories, the architectural envelope has been left intact.

Industrial-style interiors feature elements like raw brick walls, exposed steel beams and oak floors whose history is written in every pit and gouge. Iron and glass transom windows give definition and interest to small kitchen areas anchored by kitchen islands made of marble, steel and brass, while taxidermy or vintage neon signs serve as wall art in living rooms dotted with leather club chairs. Patina is the keynote to a decor in sync with such surroundings. 

On 1stDibs you will find industrial furniture designs that wear their age beautifully — and were built to last.

Mother of All Explosion Proof Globes
Located in Peekskill, NY
The explosion proof globes have always been a favourite of mine and I offer a number of different examples with a 5 inch diameter. But I have never seen an explosion proof fixture with a thick glass 8 inch diameter. The impressive scale of this unique Industrial lamp gives it a striking appearance. The heavy glass screws into a two-piece top of brass and cast iron. The globe has the feel of small fish bowl. This is a nice dramatic Industrial pendant. This Classic design is an Industrial icon and original examples are very difficult to find. If you are doing a restaurant, hotel or just 3 matching lamps over a kitchen island, good luck trying to find a matching set. We have received many requests over the years for collections of this lamp. The good news is Early Electrics Design Studio...
