Why we carry it

We have been curating design-led lighting since 2009. Besa Lighting designs and inspects its fixtures in Ohio, and its glass is made to consistent standards so a row of fixtures matches.

Buy once: durability and care

With the power off and the glass cool, wipe the glass with a soft cloth lightly misted with glass cleaner (spray the cloth, not the fixture). Dust the metal parts with a dry cloth (our advice). Installation by a licensed electrician is recommended.
