Clear Glass
While colorful, stylized glass has earned its time in the spotlight, there's a classic appeal to clear glass that can't be overstated, especially in lighting design. Clear fixtures don't dilute light the way traditional shades can, allowing pure light to illuminate the space. The clarity of glass also elevates any room with its airy, sophisticated appeal. For a bright, upscale atmosphere, clear glass is the clear choice.
Smoked Glass
With a softer, more organic light, smoked glass radiates opulence. This material has a cloudy surface, infused with real smoke as the glass is blown, that diffuses light to evenly illuminate a space. While gray and amber are common shades, smoked glass can stand out in a range of colors and textures, as unique as the artisans that craft them.
