opposed to a small bar cart, a dry bar is slightly more appropriate
if you have a larger home. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Hunter-Buffet-misc-home-d%C3%A9cor-Metallic-Bronze-Finish/dp/B000GZLEIQ/ref=sr_1_1?srs=2594714011&ie=UTF8&qid=1392145010&sr=8-1&keywords=rowan" target="_blank"><b>The Rowan Buffet Lamps</b></a> make the perfect
pairing for a larger console area. Display your buffet lamps on
either side of the console area to maximize your space for
necessities. The lamps not only add needed lighting, but adds a touch
of classically styled accents. Using a tray helps to divide the area into
different sections to dedicate that space to bottle openers,
glassware, coasters, etc. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Having color is easy to do! The alcohol
bottles are pretty enough to display and most have touches of color
to help your dry bar stand out. Stock up the bar with mixers and
showcase your favorite vintage glasses and dishware. Adding a
painting or mirror above the bar area helps elongate the section and
makes it feel more complete. The finishing touch is with fresh
flowers; not only do they add a beautiful color into the mix but the
aroma will balance everything off. A bar cart or a dry bar area
immediately invites guests to enjoy themselves while they are in your
home.</span><br />

Rustic and Nautical Mirrors<br />By: Priya Patel</h3>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #282828;">My fiancé, Alex, recently finished his five year enlistment with the United States Navy…so you can say that the Navy was and still is a big part of our lives. When moving into our first apartment we didn't know what kind of theme we wanted our living room to have, so we decided to have nautical décor accented with blue hues. We </span><span style="color: #282828;">didn't</span><span style="color: #282828;"> want to ‘go overboard’ with Navy memorabilia so we decided to find key military inspired pieces that made our theme come together.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #282828; font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 13.63636302947998px;">The Seagrass Wall Mirror is the perfect combination of rustic and nautical. It’s highly detailed with intricate knotted brown rope and is a substantial size which filled up our bare walls. The teal pillows and wall color really pops with browns and neutrals. The ‘Stuff’ bin holds all of our remote controls and of course, the holy Xbox controller. The handles are tied with rope, which ties the mirror back into the décor. While a finished living room may be miles ‘aweigh,’ a mirror really adds more depth and light back into any room.</span><br />

By: Justin Draughn<br />
<br />
A look around my house will prove my absolute love and borderline obsession with "tech-toys"...from the latest - thinnest laptop...to the sleekest new smart phone, my home is jam-packed with tech items. With this adoration for all things digital I still have yet to let go of my last remaining "tangible" vice...the book. Music lovers claim to hear the "warmth" in vinyl - book readers like the feel of paper, the experience of flipping the page, and the weight of a heavy volume. I have yet to have the same reading experience from an e-reader. With that, I'd like to tell you about my favorite reading spot in the house...<br />

One of the best features of <a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/20812ORB.html" target="_blank">Reeler</a> is its use of directional light - with the right angle and bulb combination I can illuminate my reading area, while leaving the rest of the room in the dark. Conversely, with a higher wattage bulb and higher angling of the light you can easily warm up a living room.</div>

Reeler can be purchased online, or at a local lighting retailer.</div>

Solid Solar Lantern<br />By: Justin Draughn</h3>
The recent streak of cold weather has generally kept me from enjoying my backyard lanai - instead I've been confined inside reacting the type writer scenes from "The Shining". With the first burst above 50 degree temperatures in over two weeks, I pounced on the opportunity to go outside and enjoy cooking on my grille, and perhaps some light reading afterwards. The upswing in temperature also finally gave me an opportunity to review the "<a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/60530RAT.html" target="_blank">Coil</a>" solar lantern. We on the social media team at Kenroy Home have admittedly been putting off a review on this product - we've been so enamored with the <a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/60525BLU.html" target="_blank">beautiful ceramic solar lantern collection "Leaves"</a>, that we failed to realize how incredibly awesome the Coil lantern was.<br />

In less than a second after turning on the solar light disc I was treated to an amazing light cast pattern. The coiled rings project an almost bulls-eye light display. While not exactly practical for my outside patio, a series of "Coil" lanterns on a walking path would look outstanding.<br />
<br />

<br />
The versatility of this lantern cannot be overstated - the lightweight frame made hanging it up by the handle incredibly easy. With "Coil" suspended above the grille, I now had a great downcast of light to prepare dinner. Just as easy as handing it, I transferred it over to the table for a nice "solar lit" dinner.<br />

<br />
Beyond nighttime entertaining, this lantern would make an exceptional camping accessory - lightweight enough to suspend from a branch, durable enough to withstand walks through the campground, and powerful enough to last through the night on a single solar charge. The possibilities are endless...<br />

By: Priya Patel<br />
<br />
Most of our nighttime routines consist of reading a few pages of a New York Times Bestseller - or debating on watching the next 10 episodes of "Breaking Bad" on Netflix. Regardless of what you choose as the last bit of pre-slumber stimuli, one philosophy will always remain consistent...<a href="http://www.serta.com/blog/2013/02/13/how-to-organize-your-bedroom-for-a-better-nights-sleep/" target="_blank">a well organized room will help you sleep better</a>. In this post we'll discuss a classic and clean nightstand - one that provides the right amount of "put-away" storage, with just enough table-top space for your daily go-to items.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0-aNNKA49tghgH8XsQDf9XQ0XJ4j2V87f8PGxQmq_x29e2ghpbF4BigLUMNunlrU1KPqOb4XgvwxrsbNX4A3nD2x4srgtG3BVfEWqVDMuBkdWrglTyQ0OhpYCj5QF-xoBJ2ccIQe7Ze4/s1600/night_stand_3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0-aNNKA49tghgH8XsQDf9XQ0XJ4j2V87f8PGxQmq_x29e2ghpbF4BigLUMNunlrU1KPqOb4XgvwxrsbNX4A3nD2x4srgtG3BVfEWqVDMuBkdWrglTyQ0OhpYCj5QF-xoBJ2ccIQe7Ze4/s400/night_stand_3.jpg" width="316" /></a></div>
<br />
An underutilized, plain and simple night stand is just as bad as a cluttered one - it lends zero aura to the room, and presents an "I'm just taking up space" attitude. With just a few simple accessories and must-have items, we can transform this simple piece of furniture into a well organized inspiration platform for the rest of your bedroom.<br />
<br />

<br />
A good nightstand storage policy to adhere to is dividing your items into three categories: <b>infrequent </b>- magazines, "back-up lotions", various chargers, and that shirt button you just can't seem to ever throw away...in my case, I've appropriately named this storage area "stuff". <b>Daily </b>- lotions, jewelry, medications...any item that you'd want easy-quick access too, but don't want to necessarily display to the public. And lastly, the "<b>OMG Where is my...</b>" category - these are items that you'll want easy, uninhibited access to, such as your phone, keys, or glasses.<br />

The most important element of your nightstand arrangement will be your lamp - with the top of your nightstand considered premium real-estate, you'll want to select a lamp with a small footprint. I found that the <a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/30815CH.html" target="_blank">Emilio Table Lamp from Kenroy Home</a> fits this criteria perfectly. Emilio's base is only 9.5 inches long and has a width a little over 5 inches. An additional benefit is the off-center shade position...while the footprint is small, the shade protrudes out almost 9 inches, this gives you a better viewing angle for nighttime reading or tablet surfing without sacrificing table space. </div>

A few decorative accents such as a chrome etched vase, and white candle positioned on top of a vintage box creates a classy and modernly inspired nightstand that will make your day-to-day routine a snap! </div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
For any work area, lighting is a must.
A lamp not only adds lighting to your desk, but could be a
decorative, accent piece. We spend so much time at work, so why not
make it a place we enjoy?</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">

sleek, yet funky touch to my work environment. I wanted to
incorporate the silver and polished look from the lamp back into my
desk area, so I opted for a tray to hold all of my office supplies. I
chose a metallic wide tray which houses a crackled pen/pencil
holder, fun and colorful notebooks, polka dotted file holders, and
some Lilly Pulitzer for pattern and color. My choice of desktop lighting is primarily for aesthetics - while the soft glow from the taupe shade is easy on my eyes, the silver body finish of Baubles ties the desk together.</div>

Designing a "warm" room - with "worn" furniture<br />By: Priya Patel</h3>
Before our big move to Florida, my fiancé and I were gifted these lovely coffee colored leather sofas from his parents. Due to our tight budget and knowing anything similar would retail far above what we could afford, we graciously accepted. They were upholstered with luxuriously supple blended leather and could easily be turned into a little reading nook, but first we needed to transform these sofas into more of a contemporary setting.<div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisju-nK6eT51mvu00tjsINWDW5NBLBt4kdM0mloU0cmXqhTmcBe2oR1U6UwsfArBw8LRryjH3-7d2wuTHeEGHiVWfT0S0G5cDsb0libdZNzX9ELQ4ymiqdCfNuk9Q21cyfwV6WiKdn6U0/s1600/lavo_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisju-nK6eT51mvu00tjsINWDW5NBLBt4kdM0mloU0cmXqhTmcBe2oR1U6UwsfArBw8LRryjH3-7d2wuTHeEGHiVWfT0S0G5cDsb0libdZNzX9ELQ4ymiqdCfNuk9Q21cyfwV6WiKdn6U0/s1600/lavo_2.jpg" height="476" width="640" /></a></div>

I could add a few blankets and make it cozier, but that’s not necessarily making it fun and fresh. I ran into these patterned pillows at my local home décor store and thought it would be a perfect balance with the dominating rich brown sofas. The shades of teal, silver, and periwinkle blue gave the room more of a balance. <br /></div>
<div>
Next came accessories. Accessorizing is the perfect way to add touches of your style and personality. Set the tone with personalized pictures or small plants. I found some inexpensive succulents at my local grocery store and decided to plant it in a plain rounded, crisp white pot. The white accents the periwinkle blue pillows, making everything consistent. I wanted to add more touches of white, but didn't want it to become a central color. So I opted for a textured candle in a warm yet inviting scent of vanilla. To tie everything back I wanted to add a rustic/natural touch…these pine cones did the trick! They are potpourri pine cones, which adds an extra scent to the living room.<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; page-break-before: always;">

<br /></div>
Finally, I needed a bold accent piece and most importantly, additional lighting! The <a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/32147CG.html">Lavo Table lamp</a> was the perfect colored accent piece and it was quite functional for reading. While no two lamps are the same, I had a true unique piece. The ceramic lamp was sturdy enough to withstand play time with my shih-tzu and pretty enough to have lit for an extra beam of light throughout the night.<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">

Weather Resistant Portable Lighting from Kenroy Home</h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With the recent onslaught of punishingly cold weather, it’s
difficult to even think of outdoor living accessories that aren't fire pits or
high output space heaters. Outside dining experiences featuring freshly grilled
cuisine aren't planned nearly as often when you subject your guests to single
digit temperatures. However, your outdoor living accessories – in this case, outdoor
lighting are subject to a wide array of extreme temperature changes; which begs
the question…what exactly does “weatherproof” mean?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Kenroy Home’s corporate headquarters are located in <st1:place w:st="on">Northeastern Florida</st1:place> – our weather patterns have been
known to shift wildly, making a wardrobe featuring a heavy jacket and sandals
perfectly acceptable. In short – we have an ideal testing ground for various
types of weather conditions. Our design methodology is surrounded by the idea
of “weather insurance” – nearly any lamp can operate under sunny, 72 degree chamber
of commerce days…Kenroy Home’s “weather insurance” is the guarantee that your
outdoor lighting products will operate <b><u>after </u></b>unpleasant weather systems have
passed through your area. </div>

Beginning with the most common of inclement weather…rain; as mentioned <a href="http://www.casualliving.com/article/570714-Outdoor_Accents.php" target="_blank">in this issue of Casual Living</a>, Kenroy Home actually subjects their lamps to a “rain box” during shows. We do this to not only illustrate the
effectiveness of our bulb shields, but to also demonstrate the high quality
water resistant materials used for our shades. A quick stop by our <a href="http://www.dallasmarketcenter.com/exhibitors/detail.aspx?exhibitor=413" target="_blank">Dallas Showroom this Lighting Market</a> to view the display will prove how water just
rolls off the shade – leaving no room for the material to become “weathered” over
time. Using solution dyed acrylic as the material for the shade also protect your lamp against sun damage caused by intense summer heat. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Each lamp body is also protected against the elements as
well – featuring materials such as high quality resin, concrete, and slate…these
outdoor accents earn the title “weather resistant”. During our most recent cold
snap (that was mild compared to the rest of the country) each lamp in our
testing area performed beautifully the “day after”.</div>

While there certainly is an ideal time to enjoy your outdoor
lighting accessories – make sure you select a lighting product that can safely
make it through those less than ideal weather conditions. Kenroy Home carries a
full line of outdoor lighting products – all of which can be viewed on

Folding Laundry...Writing Blogs:<br />By: Justin Draughn</h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Before my wife and I decided to have children, our home
office was truly a sight to behold. A techie’s dream…sleek tables, weirdly
shaped ergonomic chairs, and a host of science fiction movie posters adorning
the walls. Then…we had kids – while I don’t ever say that begrudgingly, my
sleek-silver office turned into a pink nightmare…a baby girl’s room.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A quick search of the house left me with little options –
moving my desk into the master bedroom was out of the question, the glow of the
monitor would keep my wife awake during late night gaming sessions. I needed a
door, and a reasonably quiet place to work and generally waste time playing
video games. Then I realized a desk-sized cutaway in our laundry room…at first
the idea sounded crazy, but after a few measurements…I realized it could indeed
work.</div>

My workstation was scaled down to a small glass table that
supported my monitor, keyboard, and mouse. While we have overhead lighting in
the form of fluorescent tubes – these tend to give me a headache, as such <a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/21397ORB.html" target="_blank">I opted for a sleek desk lamp from Kenroy Home called “Amherst”</a>. The pivoting head and three-way
touch controls worked perfectly in the arrangement – I have a nice warm glow
when typing, or executing commands on my favorite online multi-player game. Additionally,
the rich oil rubbed bronze finish compliments my black PC accessories. </div>

With very limited space, I soon realized that I would need
to "build up" in order to accommodate necessities like disc cases, files,
headsets, controllers, and general office supplies. A simple wire shelf was
installed to hold most of the larger items – however, this solution was not
handy for items that I’d be accessing frequently such as my headset and gaming
controller. After a quick online search, I located the perfect solution – an
iron holder with two supporting arms – this feature solved three storage
solutions…a place for my iron, headset, and gaming controller.</div>

Sometimes interior design can be a little rough…and that might
be the exact look you’re after. In this post we explore a simple side table
design theme that can change the look of your room from “daily commuter” to “rough
and tumble world traveler”.</div>

We begin with a highly unique light source; the “<a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/21066NR.html" target="_blank">Sheaf”table lamp from Kenroy Home</a> – this rustic bundle of reeds has a true expedition
feel. This stand out accent piece immediately sets a “raw” tone to the room –
and would be further complimented in a living space featuring hardwood floors.
The fanned reeds filter the shine of the bulb into a nice warm glow.</div>

To further drive home the “world traveler” look you can
employ a simple mason jar filled with foreign currency. Ideally these notes
would be souvenirs from your “real” world travels – but if you’re content to "stand in the place where you live", you do have a few options. Most banks offer
currency exchanges, and some may impose a minimum order...best to check before you stop by your banking establishment, you don't want to end up with a $200 design piece. Your other option...become good
friends with someone in the military, more than likely they've picked up
several notes during their tours of duty.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;">Kenroy Color – "Profile" Lamp of the Month</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;">By: Priya Patel<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;">I just settled into my new place, a nice modern
apartment located in a bustling area of the city – great restaurants and
shopping are within walking distance, and my neighbor brought over cookies the
day I moved in (yum!). Everything seemed perfects until I received my “welcome”
letter from the apartment management office. Overall the message was nice;
thanks and gratitude for selecting their community, rules and regulations about
the pool, etc… - then, located in a bright red font were the words “painting of
apartment walls is prohibited”. Bummer…every square inch of wall space was
white – like “institutional white”.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;">With the walls off limits I needed to focus on
my home décor accessories – after all nothing in the guidelines prohibited
colorful lamps or candles. Starting in my master bedroom I began with a simple
inspiration piece – a small orange candle. With my contrasting color in mind, I
thumbed through a Kenroy Home catalog (one of the many benefits of working for
a home décor company) until I found the perfect set of lamps. The Profile Lamp
collection is presented in a tangerine glaze with a poppy floral shade – the
perfect compliment to my orange inspiration piece. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt;">Now that my lighting was in place – I added a
few floral touches to my night stand to really accentuate the orange pop of
color. The white headboard and bedding makes the color stand out in an even
more dramatic fashion. The Profile floor model creates a nice contrasting
barrier between my wall, and the start of the headboard. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

simple pop-of-color can dramatically change the atmosphere of those “Don’t
Touch!” apartment walls. Adding touches of orange are easy to incorporate into
your home décor, so be bold and add a pair of tangerine lamps in your living or
bedroom. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

Ironically this posting about colorful interior design
accents is being written under a forecast of dreary, gray rain clouds. The mood
outside my window is dull, depressing, and otherwise uninspiring. When the rain
clouds finally part I’ll be treated to a wonderful collage of green grass,
brightly inspired flowers, and a crisp <st1:state w:st="on">Florida</st1:state>
blue sky…until then, my desk is adorned with brightly colored lamps like
Profile, Mackenzie, and our ceramic solar lantern collection (Leaves). I must
admit, even with the gloomy overcast weather outside – the bright pops of color
that I've surrounded myself with inside are really doing the trick,</div>

The change in season also ushers in a shift in home decor and interior design. At Kenroy Home, we selected our favorite elements of the fall season and matched them to lamps, mirrors, lanterns, and even fountains that mirror the color pallet of fall. So...put away those cool summer colors and get cozy with these suggestions;<br />

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Century Gothic; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Kenroy Home
is proud to announce the acquisition of a new Highpoint Showroom – transitioning
from their current space to a gorgeous remodeled showroom on the 3<sup>rd</sup>
floor of the IHFC building. Showroom H333 offers Kenroy Home almost 50% more
usable display space – the design and floor plan will allow inclusion of
additional ceiling and wall fixtures, a product segment typically reserved for
alternate shows. In addition to the array of new fixture sets, Kenroy Home will
continue showcasing a full compliment of portable lamps. With market right
around the corner additional remodeling is in progress to display Kenroy Home’s
expanding mirror and fountain product lines. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

growth of the Kenroy Home product line and growth of the company was the key
determinant of the new space. In addition to the larger space it also gives
Kenroy the opportunity for easier buyer access with entrances both directly off

Castillo Outdoor Floor Lamp</h2>
This week we take a look at the Castillo Outdoor Floor Lamp - a gorgeous Havana inspired piece perfectly suited for an outdoor courtyard or entertainment pad. Standing at over 60 inches in height, it'll stand out even when precariously perched in an out-of-the-way corner.<br />

Kenroy Home's "Fly Rod" Table Lamp</h2>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Inspired by the need for more gentlemen like "man cave" lighting - the Kenroy Home research team grew tired of internet search queries for "Man Cave Lamps" returning illuminated beer signs, plastic car lamps, and ahem..."risque silhouettes" fashioned into table lamps. Out of the rubble came the Kenroy Home "Fly Rod" Table Lamp - a fitting tribute to the time honored sport of fly fishing. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Standing 28 inches in height, this lamp...or should I say "fishing pole with a shade" is the perfect companion lighting piece for man caves and fishing lodges alike. The oil rubbed bronze finish and fiber textured shade add just the right amount of detail to compliment the nuances of this wonderful past time.</div>

The collection of products features four unique entries; "Leaves" - constructed of durable ceramic and finished in bright, shimmering colors; <a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/60525red.html" target="_blank">red </a>and <a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/60525BLU.html" target="_blank">blue</a>. The ten inch swirled frame of each lantern makes an exceptional table conversation piece, or a whimsical addition to a garden. Each Solar Lantern features a removable solar disc with a .3 watt LED light...it may seem small on paper, but the light creates a dynamic glow when the sun sets.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Equally impressive are "<a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/60530RAT.html" target="_blank">Coil</a>" and "<a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/60533RAT.html" target="_blank">Tangle</a>", both constructed of high quality rattan - registering in at a lower weight than their ceramic counterparts, these lanterns are more adapt to being suspended from a tree or garden structure.

Returning visitors to the Kenroy Home showroom this past Dallas Lighting Market would have noticed a dramatic departure from
Kenroy Home’s typical collection of introductions. Straying away from their
string of contemporary and transitional design releases, the designers at
Kenroy Home drew inspiration from the classic and rich cultural heritage of India.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

Not only are these stunning fixtures inspired by Indian
design culture, they were also manufactured directly from the source of inspiration – “In
order to achieve the look we were after, it seemed only fitting that we’d manufacture
using the materials and skill of India” says product designer Michael
Miler-Riley. This is of course a stark departure from recent industry manufacturing
methods where products that are decisively western in appearance are created
in far east countries such China. Kenroy Home’s recent introductions
are produced where they were inspired.</div>

Focusing on the rich heritage of metalwork and craftsmanship
found in India,
Kenroy Home’s design team focused on rich copper tones and texture techniques
such as hammered metal. The “<a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/92092COP.html" target="_blank">Detail One Light Pendant</a>”is an exceptional representation of a Kenroy Home design piece crafted in precise detail to go far and above a simply mimicked piece of Indian metal craft work. This pendant features a wide 16" diameter shell constructed of warm toned copper - an exceptional piece for the kitchen or dining room.<br />

In addition to a new line of pendants and mini-pendants manufactured in India, Kenroy Home has also released a series of complimentary sconces - notably the "<a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/92058HNBR.html" target="_blank">Dervish One Light Sconce</a>", featuring a polished nickel body with striking brass accents. The over sized 13" frame creates a shimmering focal point for both contemporary and earth toned home decor themes.<br />

<br />
Rounding out the collection of unique Indian inspired pieces is the <a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/92055ABR.html" target="_blank">"Seville 1 Light Mini-Pendant"</a>; designed as a companion piece to the best selling <a href="http://www.kenroyhome.com/pages/product_pages/32163ABR.html" target="_blank">Seville Table Lamp</a> - Seville features a sought after Moorish design theme. The pressed filigree metal introduces an interesting array of light leaks - this effect is increasingly noticed when suspended closer to the ceiling height. <br />
