Colonial-Style Lighting

1-22-08coloniallighting.jpg

We just got back from Virginia, where we saw brass Colonial Ball Chandeliers hanging in churches, restaurants, and homes. Wherever we looked, there were candlestick lamps and Colonial sconces that looked like they belonged at Thomas Jefferson's Monticello. In small doses, this is a classic look that brings a sense of tradition to a space. Click below for our roundup of Colonial-inspired lighting...

Colonial sconces are beautiful candleholders to add to the glitz of your home. These wall mounted fixtures, also known as wall sconces, come in a number of styles, to suit the décor of your home. http://www.home-decorating-reviews.com/ColonialSconces.html
