Art Deco Outdoor Lighting

Art Deco outdoor lighting is a must if you live in a 1920s house, as it complements the style perfectly. It’s likely your home will have some or all of the features that set this period-style apart. Geometric shapes, smooth lines and streamlined forms are all features that may be included.

There is a wider choice of suitable fittings available today than when these properties were built. Lighting at the time tended to be very drab and hanging light bulbs were common. The very well off could afford to get bespoke fittings made, but most people had to make do with the good old-fashioned batten lamp holder. Outside was no different, with some lanterns even made by blacksmiths and fitted with a lamp holder and flex.

By 1930, mass production techniques enabled outdoor Art Deco designs to be produced cheaply. New-fangled plastics and in particular Bakelite now took the place of more exotic materials making them cheap to produce. Today, quality materials and modern techniques make it possible to produce these fittings in almost any material.

We are much more fortunate today. All the fittings in this section feature the classic Art Deco design influences, are suitably IP rated and safe to use outside in all weathers. You can fit them in the certain knowledge that they are safe, weatherproof, will look great and provide many years of sterling service.

The fittings found in this section will enhance the exterior appearance of your home. Not just for period homes, Art Deco lights are suitable for the outside of modern and contemporary homes too. They create the look and style that fits perfectly with the modern clean-lined home.

Stylish, timeless, tasteful, trendy and classic are all words that are used to describe this stylish lighting style. Inspirational, always in vogue and forever elegant, they can transform your home exterior into something special.
