As all-around interiors experts, we trust Erin and Ben Napier to show us good design, and this is certainly the case with their latest project: a lighting collection with bespoke brand Shades of Light.
The HGTV stars have just launched a 13-piece lighting collection, which features chandeliers, sconces, and ceiling lights. The pieces are both contemporary and traditional, inspired by Erin and Ben's Southern hometown – Laurel, Mississippi.
Designed in Virginia and taking cues from 1920s-1940s materials and silhouettes, the pieces come in a range of finishes, from brass and chrome to copper and matte. 'We created this line of lights because we believe in the value of supporting skilled makers in America and good partnerships,' Ben explains.
Highlights include a sleek black, Art Deco-inspired ceiling light, and their Gardiner Schoolhouse linear chandelier – a piece named after one of Laurel, Mississippi’s founding families.
'We chose names that were specific to Laurel’s history since, for us, this is where everything begins: our desire to emphasize the spirit of small-town America and Laurel’s arts and design heritage is endlessly inspiring to us,' Erin says.
There's a clear theme with in the collection that nods to timeless vintage styles, but there is a piece to suit every kind of home, from rustic farmhouse to uber modern. There is also a range in affordability; prices start at $190.00 for the handsome Watkins Bath Sconce, and go up to $1,080.00 for the luxe, six-light Watkins Chandelier.
The Erin & Ben Co. Lighting Collection is available to shop online at Shades of Light. Browse a selection of our favorite pieces below.
