Lighting Fixtures
Hello BS'rs,
We have recently completed a major electrical overhaul in our circa 1910 single family. I'm now charged with finding affordable fixtures.
Is there an interim step between Lowes and Restoration Hardware for stuff like this?
I appreciate your recommendations and if anyone has a ballpark average price on what a nice but not too nice fixture should cost that would be great too.
Thanks,
Lauri

what kind of fixtures do you need?
we bought a lot our our lighting fixtures from lumens.com and ylighting.com, which have a pretty wide variety of styles and price points.

Rejuvenation. They're online.
And I think it's too hard to talk about a ballpark price; you can spend $30 or $1500 for a sconce depending on the quality and craftsmanship.

Remember to ask for a discount if you're buying several or all from one place More likely than not, you'll get 10% off.
