Have you ever walked into a cabin or lodge in the mountain to see a magnificent but unique antler lighting fixture that seems to draw the eye upward? Although antler lighting is not for everyone, many people enjoy this type of rustic, outdoor type of light. What is antler lighting? Very simply put, this type of lighting fixture is made using what else – antlers!
For some people who enjoy hunting and spending time in the outdoors, antler lighting is a great feature for the home. If you have a large family room or den, or perhaps a tall foyer, then this type of lighting would look great. Now, some people love the look of antler lighting but struggle with the fact that animals were killed for the light fixture to be created. In this case - we have GREAT news. You can actually purchase antler lighting that is made from faux antlers. In addition to looking like real antlers, faux antler lighting will cost you much less than the real thing. This means you can enjoy the beauty offered by this type of outdoor, rustic lighting but not pay a fortune. The result is a beautiful room that is warm, cozy, and inviting. Whether using antler lighting in the family room with a roaring fire in the background or over the dining room table, the look is beautiful. Another huge benefit of faux antler lighting over real antler lighting is that the faux option is much lighter. Real antlers are heavy, which can cause a problem for many ceilings. Faux antlers, on the other hand, are all individually hand finished so they look authentic with the wiring on the inside and out of sight but the material is much lighter, which means you can hang the light fixture anywhere you want. You can choose from a variety of styles and finishes. For instance, you might choose antler lighting with brass, antique, or black chain and hardware to enhance the look of a particular room. Regardless whether you go with real or faux antler lighting, you will love the look.
