Are you looking for a custom lamp?
At Empel Collections, ‘custom’ is our middle name. Well, not really, because then we would be Empel Custom Collections. Which actually kind of covers it… We don’t do mass production. We couldn’t, even if we wanted to. But we don’t want to. So, that’s alright then. What we want to do is designing beautiful, timeless, well-made floor lamps, table lamps, wall lamps, or ceiling lamps. And we are happy to adapt our designs to your specific requirements. And even happier designing something especially for you. Imagine that, haute couture lighting! Who knew? Well, we did. We have been doing it for years. And we are good at it.
Custom lamps: unique and bespoke
Our starting point may be a
vintage piece that we have sourced at an auction or an antique shop, but you are more than welcome to bring us a pair of vases, a piece of sculpture, a beautiful mineral or any other item you might want turned into or incorporated in a gorgeous custom lamp. Or you could choose from our wide range of designs that are made ‘from scratch’, with just our imagination and inspiration as a starting point. If you want us to tweak an existing design, so that it better fulfils your brief, we are happy to. If you want us to come up with something completely different, for that special place in your—or someone else’s—home, we are more than happy to come up with new and exciting ideas. We love the whole design process, consulting with a client and turning their wishes and ideas into something that is both functional and beautiful and truly unique.
Anything goes
Our designs cover a wide range of styles. From the sleek simple lines of our
mid-century modern designs, to the versatility of our more traditional lamps, which might appeal to the classically inclined. And our made-to-measure approach opens up an unlimited range of possibilities for you. A 10-foot chandelier? Been there, done that, and yes, both the 10-foot tall one and the 10-foot wide one. Loved it. Turn a pair of precious heirloom vases into table lamps? It is our pleasure. Come up with a creative, functional and beautiful lighting design for a problem area in your living room? We will do it. You have seen a lamp on our website, but would prefer it in a different finish or colour? Of course, you can. At Empel Collections, we create custom lamps.
