Art Deco reverse painted lighting is a unique way to update your current light fixtures and introduce a new and exciting architectural style into your home. The art deco movement was first popular in the early twentieth century and focused on using geometric shapes and modernism in design. As a movement Art  Deco design became extremely popular not only in art but in architecture, interior design and even fashion. By replacing your older fixtures with art deco lighting you can mix and match a variety of designs throughout your home while creating a common theme.

Reverse painted lighting is glass that has been painted on the interior and then viewed from the outside. When this process is used images are painted in reverse order, with the details and highlights applied first and then midtones and shadows applied last. When used in lighting the colors of the design add subtle tones to the light in the room. The art deco patterns add wonderful new designs and vibrancy to any room. These fixtures are typically constructed out of solid brass with glass fixtures.
