Coastal Decor Lighting

The choices! Coastal decor lighting has grown since the days of Old Salty as a lamp base. Choices in coral studies bring a natural seaside element to your space. These coral pieces are usually intricately designed with resin and very realistic. Driftwood also brings us seaside. The Bodega driftwood lamp by Arteriors adds a bleached driftwood look to your table top. Tropical touches are found in updated rattan and wicker pieces. Shells are now intricately placed on lamp bases as works of art that double as lighting choices. The price points are varied to make coastal lighting choices in a range of prices.

In redecorating our beach house, I chose many of the lamps we carry at By the Sea Decor. My husband says that sometimes I am my own best customer! It is true, because I tend to select products that I would use in my home! I used the Capiz column lamps in our bedroom, and, believe it or not, used two of the same! They are classically elegant and enhance our blue and white theme there. The branch coral lamp from Regina Andrew is in our entrance on a console table next to another one of my endless shell collections. Our guest bedroom is home to the Capiz sealife lamps also by Regina Andrew. Another room hosts one of my favorites . . . the stacked sea urchin lamp . . . the base is a collection of sea urchins while the lamp shade is a deep coral. I am still working on the finishing touches for the living room. I think I may do something like the Arteriors Iced Nautilus lamp to bring another color tone into our aqua and taupe room. We'll see what transpires!



Many beach decor lamps are now used as a subtle yet important decorating elements in a room. Chandeliers can make the most dramatic decorating statements as their focal point in a room. And the best part is, lamps do not have to come in pairs anymore . . . mixing and matching coastal lamps can make the most interesting statement of all.
