Downton Abbey Lighting

The Downton Abbey Lighting Collection is one of our newest additions.  We were immediately attracted to this exclusive collection of decorative floor and table lamps, such as the captivating Fringe Table Lamp.  The collection captures the grand style of the popular series that is set in an English castle in Yorkshire.  Why are we so drawn to this amazing period in history?

There is something romantic and intriguing about the aristocratic world of old England.  Through the television drama, we are given a window into that period of history.  From the Earl of Grantham, to the lowliest of housekeepers, the lives of everyone inside the walls of Downton Abbey interconnect to form a functional, and sometimes dysfunctional, world of its own.  But, when the dramatic lives falter, the elegant decor does not.  The Lace Fringe Lamp captures that decor. Along with the storyline,  two things contribute greatly to the allure of the drama.

First, is the endless array of historically accurate costumes.  From riding wear to tea gowns,  and formal dinner attire, in many ways Downton Abbey is a fashion show that draws us into the Edwardian world and all its romance.

Secondly, we fall in love with the romantic décor, including the lighting that eloquently illuminates the halls and rooms, such as the Grantham Floor Lamp. The reason for the authenticity and romance is the star of the show, Highclere Castle, where the episodes are partially shot.  With that backdrop, we see a life that most have never known.  And it’s that life, and all the essence of the day, that has inspired the Downton Abbey Lighting Collection.

The Gold Two-Arm Lamp, and the rest of the Downton Abbey Lighting has been exclusively designed and produced.  The period drama has been an overwhelming success and has been viewed by millions. Even though you may not run in the same social circles as the Earl and Countess of Grantham, you can bring a bit of Downton Abbey right into your romantic castle. So, enjoy the Downton Abbey Lighting Collection.
