Definitely getting the Crane lights for our bedroom re-decorating project. I've always loved that style light but could never find one in my price range. Thanks!
I like the look of these, but I haaaate having cords running down the wall :(
I've been looking for something similar but these are still way out of my price range, sadly.
I love the Gus Modern light you can get it here http://www.matthewizzo.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=203_268&products_id=6031 You can hide the cord in the wall just have it mounted like any wall sconce.
Ooh, I take that back - the Crane light is an excellent price considering the size! Thank you AT!
@jenawithonen- can't any lamp be hardwired? Couldn't one just cut the cord and wire the lamp in? (I am not an electrician- but I've always thought this to be the case)
It's like you just read my mind :) I've been searching for a lamp like this and was going to request another round-up. Now, if anyone can find a lamp the same style, size, and price as the Crane lamp, but without a completely exposed bulb, I'll love you forever.
Reminds me of usona's 07856 Array Sconce!

love the Prouve Potence most.
I love our Save Your Marriage light. It's flexible, sturdy, includes a dimmer on each light, and the name makes me laugh every time I think of it. http://www.lampsplus.com/products/Save-Your-Marriage-Brushed-Nickel-Plug-In-Wall-Light__20841.html
@catiaelizabeth - We will have pendant lights available soon that can be combined with the Crane Light and/or the new 360º floor lamp coming out later this spring. Stay tuned...
