Rustic light fixtures are the ideal choice for homes decorated in country, Shabby chic, Provence, Tuscany and Mediterranean style. You can see them in log cabins, mountain villas or beach houses and their simplicity and charm adds to the atmosphere of coziness of the home. Whether chandeliers, wall sconces, table or floor lamps, have the main characteristics of rustic style – simplicity and lack of pretentiousness. They blend harmoniously in home decors based on natural materials – brick, wood, stone and metal – as well as neutral colors like shades of green, beige, various shades of brown, etc.

How to choose rustic light fixtures – materials and designs

Very often rustic style is characterized as being a nostalgic touch which takes us back to the past times and is focused on the harmony with Nature. Exposed solid wood ceiling beams are a typical feature of rustic homes as well as rough wooden planks which add a lot of texture to the interior design. When choosing rustic light fixtures you need to consider what materials will work best with the existing decor of your home and try to combine them in a harmonious way. There are different types of light fixtures to choose from:

Metal lamps shaped as oil lamps. They have a special antique charm and can be used as wall sconces or as light fixtures installed on a wagon wheel or on a wrought iron base.

Wagon wheel lighting fixtures are also often used as a spectacular element in a rustic home decor. They are suitable for illuminating larger areas and are a good choice for living rooms and dining rooms.

Wrought iron lighting fixtures hanging from the ceiling on metal chains or ropes are another great option. Wrought iron, as a material, is typical for rustic decors and we see it in fireplace accessories, as a base for coffee tables, etc.

Of course, antler chandeliers – real or faux –are one of the most popular options for ceiling lighting fixtures in rustic interiors. From modest sized designs to spectacular compositions, antler lighting fixtures will never remain unnoticed.

Like any other type of light fixtures, rustic light fixtures should perform their main function – provide sufficient light. However, their decorative and aesthetic value often prevails over the practical function. In a rustic home interior you need to choose the right lighting fixtures not only for the main living areas – the living room and kitchen, but for the bedroom, bathroom, eventually for a home office. It is important to achieve an authentic look, so keep to light fixtures made of natural materials and avoid plastic and stainless steel.
