Scroll through social media, open a shelter magazine, or take a digital tour of one of the homes here on Apartment Therapy, and it’s easy to see: good lighting makes a big difference in the look, feel, and vibe of a room. Overheads are fairly easy to replace, even when rented, and lamps can add much-needed task lighting without any fuss. So why not use lights that suit your design style and budget? Maybe it’s because you haven’t found something that suits you yet, at a fairly affordable price, and to that I say: Meet Pooky Lighting.
This cult favorite British brand just landed in the US, and I haven’t been this excited about a launch in a long time. That’s because Pooky hits all the high notes when it comes to decorative lighting; not only does the company offer beautiful chandeliers, pendants, recessed mounts, lamps, lamps, outdoor lights, mirrors and more, but they are also a true market leader when it comes to the wireless category. You’ll find more traditional rechargeable brass lamps alongside wall-mounted styles, and if you’ve ever felt like the LED restaurant craze didn’t quite work for your space because the designs are all ultra-modern, Pooky’s got you covered.
And did I mention they also have one of the most robust lampshade selections I’ve ever seen from one company? The à la carte range of shades and bases can be mixed to create a whopping 100,000-plus different pairings (and you can use these shades with standard lamp bases too), so you’ll definitely have fun playing with combinations or upgrading a lamp you already have new. If you’re having a hard time seeing so many options while browsing, know that you can also use the brand filter settings to narrow things down before you zero in on a particular style.
Pooky now ships nationwide within five to seven working days, and the brand also offers free shipping and returns. That should be enough to give you the confidence you need to shop without worry, but to make it even easier, I’ve picked out a few of my favorite products from the brand. Get ready to give your home lighting a shine, and trust me – the “big light” isn’t so bad when it looks like one of Pooky’s.
