House of
Lamps and Antiques
OUR HISTORY
What a great
twenty-two years
it’s been in this business. I’ve traveled through
North America,
England, and France, searching for just the right antiques and pieces for new lamp
creations. After all these years, I still continue to be
inspired,
always looking forward to the next project and finding the next antique.ABOUT US
