My Favorite 37 Online Lighting Resources

You may not want to buy everything online (sofas or chairs for instance want to be sat in, fabric often wants to be touched), but lighting is certainly one of the things that you can confidently purchase without needing to see/hold/touch/nuzzle in person. So we thought it was about time that we did an epic lighting resource post, rounding up our favorite 37 stores and choosing a lot of our favorites from them. In no particular order, here, my friends, are my favorite online lighting sources.

Whoa! Awesome resource.

Question for you guys- we are living in Germany and there’s an awesome lighting store close by which some fixtures that are very unique and I would love to own. What are your thoughts on buying a wonderful fixture before you have the house? (I am active duty Air Force so we live in military housing and will probably have at least one other home before our forever home.)

Reply to  AshleyM

I say do it, especially if there is a piece you don’t think you can get in the states. I rent currently, but I have moved my pride and joy sputnik chandelier to three properties now with no issues. When we move we have simply replaced the fixture with what was there before or we buy another simple builder grade fixture to install, with our landlords blessing of course.

8 years ago
Reply to  Kelsey

Agreed, if you find a fixture you love you should definitely buy it and then you can bring it with you to your next place. Swapping out lighting is a very easy thing to DIY and if you save the old pendant you can swap it back in when you move.

Um, should she not be concerned about wiring? It may not be a problem, but I just wanted to note that lighting in Europe generally runs on DC and in North America on AC. But that may be an easy fix. Ask at the Lighting shop.

Such a cool round-up; I thought I knew all the good lighting sources but you listed a bunch I hadn’t heard of. Totally pinning for future reference! You’re always asking for new roundup ideas, so I’ll just throw in that I personally would love a round-up of round dining tables. And/or extendable dining tables (the only ones that work for me are the round–>oval kind, but maybe extendable in general with different shape categories would be more helpful for a broader audience?) I find a lot of tables to be either uninspiringly cheap/boring, or TOO artsy in a way that feels like too much of a statement or splurge for something that will probably take kind of a beating in my house. For what it’s worth, 48-ish inch round is my sweet spot, but again I’m not the only reader out there. 🙂 Lastly, I’d be curious to hear from you–do you think there’s any merit to the idea that not EVERY piece in a home should be interesting/cool? I know you always say “pretty goes with pretty” which I agree with, but as I shop for stuff like a dining table (which will be very visible in our open… Read more »

Guys. GUYS. You are really the best. Thank you Emily + team for putting in all this work for these roundups. I just moved from an antique craftsman to a midcentury ranch and am switching up all my stuff, and your roundups are saving me a bajillion hours (probably) of research. I’ve already bought at least 5 things from different roundups you’ve compiled. You make the world a better place.

Any advice on mixing lighting tones in a single room? I have the black onefortythree sconces: http://shop.onefortythree.com/products/wall-sconce on the walls of my living room and am trying to figure out if I can do the gold Threshold chandelier as the overhead light http://www.target.com/p/menlo-chandelier/-/A-50332004? but I feel like a black chandelier might look more intentional? There is obviously gold/brass through out the room on objects though so maybe it would work?

Wow! So much great info! Curious to know your thoughts on sourcing a plug-in pendant or chandelier to hang over a dining table. We currently rent in San Francisco, and like many apts in SF our place is dated (more 70s than gorgeous victorian unfortunately). There’s no hardwired light above the dining table, and that reno is out of the question for a rental. The light would be visible from the street so I would love to have a statement piece that’s also functional, but it must be a plug-in (that preferably doesn’t look tacky). Any tips on where to find great plug-in options?

Converting something hardwired to a plug in is not difficult. The tricksy bit is the plug. Just google it.

Love this post! I love looking at lamps and lighting and there seem to be so many gorgeous choices these days!

I have a suggestion for a possible post: I’m going to be buying a new chandelier for my dining room soon and am not sure what to take into consideration. The one I chose last time doesn’t fit the space (it’s too small and doesn’t give off enough light ). I’m concerned about proportions. How do I decide what is the best size is for the room? How far above the table should the light fixture rest? How much light is best for a dining room? How do I pick a style that is not too predictable, but doesn’t clash with the furniture or style of the house? The same questions could apply to pendant lighting in the kitchen and other rooms. Does anyone else have this problem?

Regarding the person asking about buying the light fixture in Germany, I would like to mention that Germany runs on 220V and the fixture might have to get rewired for 110Volts once they move back to the US. Could you kindly let them know before they make this investment? Thank you.

I’ve been slowly replacing the fixtures in my house–the last two I bought from Wayfair, and was generally happy with both, but I will share a problem I foresee with my most recent purchase. I bought a vanity light that uses a T10, medium base, 9 inch, 75 watt bulb. This has been a very challenging bulb to locate! I never considered the cost and availability of bulbs in my fixture purchases in the past, but will from now on.
