Hall and Foyer Fixtures

Can create a congenial atmosphere, while providing you with general lighting you need to greet guest and assure safe passage into other areas of your home. Use ceiling, chain or cord hung, or close to ceiling fixtures in hallways, stairways and entrance ways.

Chandeliers

Can add sparkle and style to your dinning room, while giving you the general lighting you need for dinning and entertaining. They are also used in bedrooms, foyers, or over a room feature such as a grand piano. Chandeliers are available traditionally in incandescent, and tungsten halogen. The addition of a dimmer control allows the user to alter the intensity of light to suit the mood and activity in the room.

Pendants
