Egyptian Lights

As many of you may know, I have an obsession with lights and now, with having to choose the pendants for our house so the electrician can give an accurate quote (we've gone for a fixed quote as with the rest of the build process), I have to actually make some lighting decisions.

And let me tell you, it's not easy. I don't want to pick ones I may tire of and the choice is endless - although the fittings do have to be 240 w, LED and dimmable which does narrow down the choice. Plus, shades where the bulb can be seen are not so suitable as LED globes, currently, don't look anywhere near as nice as the original light bulb.

So far most of my research has been online so I will have to hoist myself off my chair and get out of the house. One place I'm keen to go to is Tokens of Living, up the northern beaches. Here are some of their lights (among other things) that have got my attention: beautiful, silvery, sparkly lights from Egypt.





Just imagine the light sparkling around a room with these numbers!
