Hand Blown Away

The lighting fixtures present in a house can make all of the difference between a house and a home. They can convey warmth, modernity, minimalism, or opulence. They can be a focal point such as a chandelier, or a workhorse such as table light. Really, it is the type and placement of these fixtures that is so pivotal.  In today's world, there are many options available in home lighting, each according to taste and price range. One way to amp up the artistic style factor in lighting choices is to choose ones made from hand-blown glass. Hand blown glass has been gaining popularity in recent years because of its unique look and artisan mentality: an instant conversation starter. 

This change is sure to add more artistic pop to any living space, and is a relatively low cost upgrade with maximum results. It may be necessary to shop around to find the best selection of hand-blown glass fixtures to choose from, but a great place to start is here at A19.com. Our new reFusion collection is actually made using recycled glass sourced from a local glass company. Local artists then hand blow all the glass and cast all the ceramic in the fixture collection in-house using our own kilns. This allows an ownership of the finished product that encourages an excellence that we take pride in along every step of the way. No matter what you choose, keep a high standard and choose responsible artisans for a decoration that makes you feel as good as it looks.
