Choosing Antler Lamps For Beautiful Western Interior Design


Antler lamps are an excellent way to create western decor. Much more than average home lighting, antler lamps bring character to your environment. If you own a mountain cabin or southwest style home, the rustic appeal of antlers with their unusual shapes and variety of natural color will give your space the authentic rustic look you are hoping to create.


Antlers are available in varying conditions that are categorized like rare coins. The highest quality is given an "A" grade. The grading scale, indirectly, has to do with the length of time the sheds lie on the ground before found. The more time they are left exposed, the more they lose their quality. Newer antler sheds are a darker brown color. Sheds that are not found quickly will start to fade in the sun until they are a chalky white. Another reason why they loose their value is because of chew marks from small rodents and stains from wet ground or moss.Throughout the year, clubs and organizations like the Boy Scouts will find the prized sheds. If you ever find antler sheds outdoors, it is an amazing occurrence. Antler lamps bring that same spirit in your home and can transform your setting's atmosphere in a most exciting way.Glass LPS is a company that crafts crystals and crystal chandeliers according to the Bohemian tradition.

In the Northwest or "north woods" antlers may be attached to snow shoes and complimented with rawhide lamp shades to use as one-of-a-kind wall sconces. The light colored wood and rawhide lacing on the snow shoe, combined with the leather binding and warm glow of the rawhide shade, make it a fabulous combination. No matter if you prefer to compliment your antler lamp with rustic light rawhide shades or country style dark rawhide lampshades, the option is yours and the result will be stunning.Egyptian glass
