The chandelier is an integral element of interior design. You can say they are the centerpiece of light design. epoca has some of the most beautiful chandeliers, pendants, lanterns and sconces.

Chandeliers infuse drama like these twin mid-century Murano chandeliers which we envision sparkling over a holiday dining table. And chandeliers can be welcoming as we imagine this mid-century Murano Clear Glass Bullicante pendant by Seguso strategically placed in a foyer or hall.  

Chandeliers offer a little bit of everything: Rococo ornateness, Neoclassical simplicity, Murano elegance, contemporary intrigue -- invariably the results will be stylish, stimulating, and certain to impress!

View our full listing of chandeliers here. 

Throughout the week, we are going to share some of my favorites here at the gallery. Today is this remarkable, superb quality Murano clear glass lantern by Seguso,

April showers brings May, actually, June––flowers; flowers bursting of vibrant beautiful color, just like this large pair of crackle-glaze ceramic lamps in a richly-colored turquoise by Frederick Cooper here at epoca. These lamps are a perfect example of the extraordinary quality associated with the Frederick Cooper Lamp Company established in Chicago in 1923. Frederick was a Chicago artist and was fascinated with the new invention of lamps and tried to incorporate the elements and flavors of American architecture of that time which has been carried on through the generations. Visit our gallery at 1700 16th street @ Kansas to see these and other fabulous lamps at epoca and the new home of Garden Court Antiques.  See you soon!

Depicted by nearly every culture throughout time, celestial elements hold mystery, splendor, and symbolism. The sun is regarded as a symbol of life, power, and rebirth; the phases of the moon symbolize immortality, eternity, and purity; stars may represent the knowledge of good and truth, inspiration, imagination, dreams, and divine guidance. The sky humbles us and the celestial bodies we see from earth have long been inspiration to artists and artisans.

New to the gallery is this very cool and shimmering 8-light chandelier by Swedish glass designer Carl Fagerlund for Orrefors Glassworks. This circular chandelier has eight pie-shaped curved and textured crystal segments supported by a brass fixture. Carl Fagerlund was internationally recognized for his unique and cutting edge lighting designs at Orrefors Glassworks during the 1960’s through 70’s and I’m proud that we have a great example to share with you.
