Title Antler Lighting: How It’s Crafted and Uses
Created Monday, Nov. 30, 2009
Content

Antler lighting fixtures are available in an incredible range of styles, sizes, and price ranges. These amazing works of art go through an incredible process that relies both on nature and artistry. Because of both of those factors, you will find that although each fixture is similar, no two are quite exactly alike, creating a wonderfully unique home décor item that can be used in the most rustic of designed homes all the way to being used as a subtle touch of western flair. 

The most important component in the manufacturing process here are the antlers themselves. The process begins in the spring when the mule and white tail deer shed their antlers when they begin to grow new. Male deer are known to shed antler racks with up to ten points. The shed antlers are collected by cowboys and ranchers and are then purchased by lighting manufacturers. This creates an alternative source of income for the cowboys and their families. 

Each craftsman hand selects the antlers that will suit each lighting project. And they are trained in dying, metal working, and the sewing and hand-stretching of rawhide for lamp shades. All of these factors together help to create incredible unique light fixtures.  

The selection is vast from large and small antler chandeliers to delicate antler lamps. You'll find bathroom light fixtures, table and floor lamps, and much more. This amazing selection means that no matter what your style or the size of your space, you are sure to find something that will add to your home decor just right.  

Use larger items like large chandeliers to transform the style of a room into a beautiful and elegant rustic look. Or if you are looking to add small pops of style, look into the smaller table lamps, perfect for night stands in a bedroom.  

Antler lighting is a fantastic example of nature and interior design coming together to create fabulous home décor for anyone and any style. If you choose to install a large light fixture, be sure to work with a buddy and have some electrical experience. If you are not comfortable with your electrical knowledge, please consult with an electrician or even consider hiring one for the job.

I have not experienced this level of customer service in a very long time. I am extremely pleased with the "relationship" you have formed with me as a client through this experience. This has been a great purchase from every angle. Thank you! Shannon Coghlan PA (UniqueVanities.com Client)

There's no improvement when you're the best - again, we are very pleased. We love our piece, loved our price and thought that it was great to receive a nice towel and gourmet soap just for purchasing. You have a fantastic selection and the quality is unbelievable. Keep it up!! Peter Kardasakis, NY (UniqueVanities.com Client)
