It affected all forms of design including fine and decorative arts, fashion, film and of course lighting. The Roaring 20\u2019s was a glamorous, optimistic time and this style was not just for the rich and famous as mass production meant everyone could experience the Deco style. Electricity was now widely available and the 1920\u2019s saw the beginnings of the modern lighting industry that we know today. Architectural lighting, lighting designers and engineers were becoming important business.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Chrome was the new material of the time and combined with glass lent itself readily to lighting and even today light fittings continue to be made in chrome and satin chrome. Geometric angular shapes with strong symmetrical lines including zig-zag and chevron patterns were used on shades. Colourful stained glass was hand crafted to produce <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bespokelights.co.uk\/search\/shop-by-era-c1\/art-deco-lighting-c13\/tiffany\">Art Deco Tiffany style lights<\/a>. Art Deco lady lamps with glass balls held aloft are possibly one of the most recognised lamps from the Art Deco era. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10\" style=\"width: 245px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bespokelights.co.uk\/shop-by-era-c1\/art-deco-lighting-c13\/belvedere-collection-deco-lady-art-deco-female-figure-table-lamp-opal-globe-shade-p1707\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10\" class=\" wp-image-10\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bespokelights.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/deco-lady.jpg\" alt=\"Art Deco Lamp.

It is easy to understand this re-emergence as Art Deco lighting is supremely versatile, being suited to both modern and traditional interiors. The Art Deco style was considered modern and trendy in the 1920\u2019s and 1930\u2019s and today Art Deco lights are still used for a minimalist look in modern open plan living areas.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Deco lights are, of course, well suited to traditional homes built in the 1920\u2019s and 1930\u2019s. Art Deco lighting is the perfect accompaniment to both modern and traditional d\u00e9cor.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">We are very excited as this is our first Bespoke Lights blog so we hope you have enjoyed reading it.
