Start Your Day Right with Great Vanity Lights

When it comes to contemporary bathroom design, one overhead light is no longer enough. The current trends in bathroom lighting design lean towards a more layered approach. By using vanity lights and wall sconces in conjunction with flush mount ceiling lights, you can eliminate shadows and unwanted glare and highlight your strongest facial features. This 3 Light Bath Fixture comes from Quoizel's Ellis Lighting Collection. The Ellis Collection features 1, 2, 3, and 4 light vanity fixtutres that can be mounted either downwards or upwards depending on your intended lighting scheme. This sleek, unconventional design is sure to brighten up the look of your bathroom and help you start your day on the right track.

Introducing Z-Lite Lighting

We at Nova Lighting Store are proud to announce that we now carry the full line of Z-Lite lighting fixtures. Since 1987, Z-Lite designers and artisans have combined modern materials with old world craftsmanship to create some of the lighting industry's most inspired and attractive high-quality fixtures.

The full line of Z-Lite fixtures includes marvelous chandeliers, semi-flush ceiling lights, kitchen island lighting, billiard table and game lights, table lamps, bathroom vanity lights, and many others, but here are some of our personal favorites:

This 5 Light Chandelier from the Dynasty lighting collection represents a remarkable fusion of victorian and industrial designs. The fixture's sleek spiral columns are contrasted by a strong satin nickel/black finish, rendering a style that is simaltaneously classical and post-modernist.

Charles Dickens wrote, "there are few more cheerful sights, when the evenings are long, and the weather dull, than a handsome, well-lighted billiard room..." The Tiffany Billiard lighting collection's 4 Light Chestnut Bronze Billiard Table Light presents a scene that seems to recall the spirit-lifting magic of a Dickens-era pool hall. Beautiful tiffany glass recreates the majesty of stained glass, while a chestnut bronze finish enhances the fixture's elegant appeal.

This 3 Light Bronze Table Lamp from the Lancaster lighting collection makes for an ideal complement to a game room, den, or music space. Charming in its jazzy simpliciity, this lamp proves the famous axiom, "less is more."

These three designs represent just a small fraction of the myriad styles available from Z-Lite, so head on over to NovaLightingStore.com and check out the rest.

Forget Retro, This Is Petro

When looking at Quoizel Lighting's Fossil Stone Table Lamp, the first thing one notices is the shade, and rightfully so. Each shade has been individually handcrafted from genuine fossil stone (petrified wood that was embedded in the earth's crust and permeated by minerals for millions of years). These fascinating stones are polished to perfection and distinctively arranged, giving each shade a sophisticated, earthy appeal. The same can be said for the rest of Quoizel's Fossil Stone Lighting Collection. Each of the eight fixtures in this collection presents a look that is both unique and refined.
