I am looking for lighting for a new kitchen and want an alternative to Visual Comfort. I don’t dislike Visual Comfort but I feel like it’s totally taken over the market lately.
Style is traditional- maybe brass lanterns but still thinking. Any suggestions for places to look? |

Urban Archeology
Quality and price point is above Visual Comfort. Urban Electric Nice designs and quality. Expensive - I suspect a lot of their business is to the trade. Visual Comfort was my go to for good value until their quality fell off around the last recession. The two brands I mentioned above are at higher price points and quality than VC. I will say that on one of my last jobs the Visual Comfort fixtures definitely had some of their old quality. |

Olde Brick is traditional and generally a lower price point: https://oldebricklighting.com/
We also bought Rejuvenation and some brands that lean more modern (Dutton Brown, Mitzi, Cedar & Moss, CB2). |

We are working with a lighting designer to get a bunch of decorative fixtures & I just asked him for a range of vendors. I particularly like Currey & Co and Hudson Valley but haven't yet seen them in person. Here's his recs:

| Dulles Electric has the best, most comprehensive showroom with a wide variety of suppliers (incl. Visual Comfort). We got a lot of our lighting there for a new build and were quite happy. |

Serena & Lily -- though some styles are VC
I know you want kitchen lighting, but I just amazing sconces from Pooky Lighting. Hate Currey & Co. VC is so popular because it's great if you don't want to spend a fortune. |

Dominion Lighting is a store, not a brand. They carry lots of brands. |
