Traditional Wall Lights
The traditional style for wall lighting encompasses many periods; hence it’s also called period wall lighting by many artisans and designers.
Period wall lights are often defined as timeless and understated elegant lighting for formal and important occasions. These lights depict the beauty of the olden glorious days of art from different decades and centuries, making them exquisite statement pieces on various events. Now, with a massive array of materials for picking - from luxurious crystals to durable brass - combined with efficient production methods, vintage wall lights can be made classy and affordable, allowing lighting enthusiasts to bask in their attractiveness in the comforts of their own homes.

Tips when Designing Rooms Using Traditional Wall Lights
Perhaps you're renovating your spaces and want to add the traditional wall light you bought online to your design plan for a classic appeal. Here are some useful tips from our designers on how to install traditional wall lights without messing up your revamping plans:
- Most traditional wall lights aren't designed for practicality. Most of them are used to impress and become statement and decorative lighting. Hence, if your newly-bought traditional wall light is classified under this group, you can maximise its purpose by installing it in common areas like living rooms and dining spaces.
- Some traditional wall lights have intimate designs. The wall lights from Viore Design's Stanford Collection are suitable examples for this case. Such lights evoke a relaxing atmosphere, making them ideal fittings for private spaces such as bedrooms instead of shared spaces.
- If possible, use traditional wall lights sparingly in a specific space, especially if you have chandelier wall lights. Most traditional wall lights are meant to be standalone fixtures, unlike modern wall lights that remain beautiful even when used in groups. Try to limit traditional wall lights in your room to up to two identical fixtures only.
- Pair traditional wall lights with simple furnishings with clean lines to highlight the appeal of your wall lighting, especially if you have a modern-styled room.
- Suppose your newly-bought traditional wall light doesn't match the desired ambience of your space, and you can't return it to the retailer. In that case, a new finish solves the problem most of the time. Chrome can be glaring on its own, but as the "shiny silver" finish, it can upgrade your traditional glass wall light's impression while matching with common household items like doorknobs and faucets. A steel-made wall light can emulate different vibes depending on its finish, e.g. satin, stainless, brushed, etc. Brass exudes warmth due to its luxurious golden appeal, making it a classy and tasteful colour for glamorous settings. Decide which finish best suits your space and remake the coating of your traditional wall light.
