I've always had a passion for lighting and antiques for as long as I can remember. It started off at a young age but it all came together as the industrial décor movement really came together. I imagined taking items from the past and bringing them together into attractive themed lamps. Lamps that people of all ages and backgrounds could appreciate and cherish.
Through all my tours across western Canada and the United States I've came across many workings of the past that were no longer usable but intriguing none the less. It made perfect sense to me to re purpose these vintage items into works of art that were functional once again. They may no longer serve their original purpose but through our workings they will once again provide a useful function, the function of light!
I thoroughly enjoy dreaming up the next creation and bringing together items no longer useful into something unique. It may take months to find the parts and pieces to really bring the lamp together but its a quest with satisfying results. The pieces are meticulously assembled with the desired theme in mind. Any original working parts will be brought into the design as long as they don't compromise the safe electrical workings of the lamp. There may be five to ten lamps on the go at and given time and until the right items are found they will remain as a work in progress. I will not compromise on the vision and goal of creating a one of a kind work of art with fully functional, visually appealing, beautiful lighting. A conversation piece that will be sure to bring the past to light!
