Pirce is a classic fixture that has had a secure spot in our showroom since we opened our doors in 2008. Until now it has only been available in a white finish, but the tables have turned! Pirce is now available in gold, and titanium, and also as a suspension fixture or a flush mount.

Inspiration: Transitional Fixtures

Today we are giving you all some inspiration for fixtures that we consider transitional. A transitional fixture is a fixture that is contemporary, but also fits in well with a traditional design. Basically, they’re the best of both worlds! Take a look at a few of our favorite transitional pieces:

Inspiration: Flush Mounts

Today we are going to share some inspiration for you all in the form of flush mounts. Flush mounts may not seem like the most exciting form of lighting. Often pendants and suspension pieces acquire most of the attention. Flush mounted fixtures can also offer a wonderful aesthetic while not going overboard or blocking your line of sight. Take a look at some of our favorites:
