Mid Century Style Lighting Fixtures

Mid Century started in the post war years of the middle of the twentieth century. It is a wonderful blend of traditional and contemporary lighting. It is inspired by the decades around the 1950's when modern design began to move toward geometric shapes, and curves, with splashes of playful color, while still having function and style. Mid century modern, mixes modern and retro styles together to give you an updated version of yesteryear with a contemporary feel. One popular example is the Sputnik chandelier, characterized by a central sphere, with long arms reaching outward, usually ending with a bulb or shade. Mid century lighting is available in chandeliers, sconces, table and floor lamps. Its a wonderful way to give the perfect finishing touch to your home.
