Art Deco lighting from the 1920s and 1930s is characterised by bold geometric shapes, angular forms, and clean lines, frequently utilising materials such as polished brass, chrome, and clear or frosted glass.

Vintage lanterns typically combine solid brass, copper, or bronze framing with hand-cut or moulded glass panels held together by soldered metal ribs or leaded seams.

Authentic period lights feature crisp geometric proportions, period-appropriate porcelain or brass bulb holders, aged brass patination, and hand-fitted leaded or brass-framed glass panels.

An Art Deco ceiling fixture adds architectural structure to entryways, hallways, or dining rooms, pairing effectively with contemporary neutral palettes, dark painted ceilings, or restored period plasterwork.

Clean glass panels using a soft microfibre cloth with diluted glass cleaner, avoiding harsh abrasives on brass components to preserve natural age patination.
